This work presents a theoretical optimization study of pump power and fiber length in both single-pass and double-pass Thulium-doped fiber amplifiers (TDFAs) operating with a 1050 nm pump source. By employing the Runge-Kutta method to solve relevant differential equations, the analysis aims to enhance the gain and minimize the noise figure of the TDFA configurations, which are crucial for effective S-band amplification in modern optical communication systems.
