Abstract
An experimental and theoretical study is presented for the transmission and noise characteristics of semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs). This device is very relevant in the novel optical networks. So the gain and noise performance are important in all the linear and nonlinear regimes. The paper exhibits the main SOA characteristics which were also measured.
