Synopsis

Advances in optical communication and optoelectronic components have revolutionized telecommunication transmission. This text provides a comprehensive treatment of optical fibre communications, using a modern theoretical approach. Presenting mathematical models of the optical components that are building blocks of optical systems, it provides insight into the field of lightwave communications. The reader is introduced to the theory of dispersion in optical fibres, including solitons. There is also an analysis of heterodyne reception, including the effect of laser phase noise, and in-depth coverage of optical amplifiers.

A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

Principles of Lightwave Communications Göran Einarsson Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden Advances in optical communications and optoelectronic components have revolutionized telecommunication transmission. Uniquely, this book provides a comprehensive treatment of optical fiber communications using a modern communication theory approach. Presenting mathematical models for the building blocks of optical systems, this authoritative text provides a solid basis for analysis and design of lightwave communications systems. Features include:

• Introduction to the theory of dispersion in optical fibers including solitons
• Analysis of Heterodyne reception, including the effect of laser phase noise
• In–depth coverage of optical amplifiers from a communication theory point of view
• Optical detection theory with PIN–diodes and avalanche photodetectors with a detailed discussion of optical information theory
• Comprehensive treatment of direct detection receivers and systems
• Basics of analog optical systems

This book is essential reading for engineers and scientists working in research and development of optical communication systems, particularly optical detection and fiber optics. Postgraduate students of physics and optical communications, with a basic knowledge of optics and optical semiconductor components, will also find this an invaluable reference source.

Présentation de l'éditeur

The book details the theoretical fundamentals which under–pin lightwave communications. In particular, the author provides essential information on the reception of optical signals. Opening with a summary of the history and development of optical communications, the book progresses to cover light propagation in optical fibers, optical waveguides, optical detection theory and heterodyne systems. Detailed examples are interspersed throughout the book to assist the reader′s understanding and step–by–step mathematical analysis is included.
