• Next in the “Group” drop-down list select “Frequency”, in the “Units” drop-down list
select “nm”
• Right-click on “Value” and select “Spread” from the context menu. In the dialog box
that pops up enter 1510 for “Start Value” and 5.2 for “Increment”.

• Select “Output Signal Type” from “Group”. As described above “Multiple Assign” 0 to
the “Value” of the “Parameterized” parameter. This means that the signals will be
generated with full sampled spectra, using the “sampled signal” representation
instead of the “parameterized signal” one.
• Close the subsystem.
• Repeat the same steps for the next subsystem setting its source wavelengths from
1572.6 to 1630 nm and the powers to –10 dBm
Now we have the necessary pumps and signals and can start building the Raman amplifier
