Abstract :
We have developed a theory of power budget optimization in dispersion-managed cascaded optical amplifier systems. It can be used for a variety of systems and can be easily generalized for more complex configurations. Applying our general results to a specific configuration we analyzed a novel design of the transmission system with periodically imbalanced in-line amplification.
