Abstract

Numerical modeling has been instrumental in studying the behavior of continuous wave (CW) erbium-doped ring cavity fiber laser (EDFRL). This can be obtained by providing a customized solution for a large parameter. In this paper, erbium-doped ring cavity fiber laser model is presented. The proposed model is obtained using a simple application of a fast-shooting algorithm combined with a secant-method. The performance results show that this algorithm is a flexible tool that can be used in modeling and simulation. However, the solution can also be implemented in other types of fiber lasers including, ytterbium, and thulium as well as co-doped fiber lasers.
