1—"A DOUBLE PASS OPTICAL AMPLIFIER WITH UNIDIRECTIONAL COMPENSATION OF CHROMATIC DISPERSION AND OBSTRUCTION OF BACKSCATTERING", composed by an EDFA, whose input/output stage is integrated by a circulator (6), and the amplification stage is composed by a pump laser (1) and an Erbium-doped fiber connected to a multiplexer (3), said amplifier, in which the optical signal undergoes an initial amplification while passing through the Erbium-doped fiber on the way through the fiber and a second amplification on the way back of the same fiber, presents, after the amplification stage, at least one dispersion compensating fiber (11), whose input and output are connected to the free extremity of the Erbium-doped fiber (2), through at least one device (12) arranged in the circuit in order to prevent the backscattering generated in the dispersion compensating fiber (11) from returning to the Erbium-doped fiber (2) and to allow the signal to travel through the dispersion compensating fiber (11) only once and in one direction, and then return to the amplifier circuit.
