We report measurements of wavelength‐dependent gain saturation in an erbium‐doped fiber amplifier over a wavelength range of 30 nm under four different pump conditions. The wavelength and the pump dependences were simultaneously analyzed using a theoretical model with the McCumber relation. Our results could be reproduced using a single theoretical model.
