The effect of channel add/drop response on a new and novel type of narrowband ASE feedback EDFA is investigated. This gain‐clamped amplifier utilizes multiple fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) in a simulated eight‐channel WDM network. This experiment demonstrates that in order to minimize variation of surviving‐channel power to less then 0.28 dB for channel add/drop, the ASE feedback attenuation level and pump power are critical. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
