A theoretical model has been established based on the solution of the rate equations for the erbium-doped fiber ring laser(EDFL). Analytic solutions for the threshold pump power, the output power, the slope efficiency and optimum erbium-doped fiber length of EDFL are obtained. The physical explanations have been given for the results.
