Abstract
A pulsed optical beacon source is formed of a fiber-based amplifier including a preamplifer stage (responsive to a CW seed laser source) and a booster stage coupled to the output of the preamplifier stage. The pump input to at least one stage is pulsed and controlled in a manner that allows for the formation of a pulsed beacon output that is able to perform the PAT requirements of a beacon source, while also allowing for a low bit rate (e.g., a few Hz to a few kHz) upstream data signal to be sent between the beacon source and a target's optical receiver.
