Abstract
By analyzing the principle of dual-pump parametric amplification and the polarization dependent gain of fiber optical parametric amplifier (FOPA), a polarization-insensitive FOPA based on polarization-diversity technique with dual parallel pumps is presented. The performances of polarization-insensitivity, gain and BER are theoretically analyzed and numerically simulated by comparing the proposed scheme with parallel pump solution and orthogonal pump solution. The presented solution can reduce the complexity of state of polarization (SoP) of pumps.
