Synopsis

This book is an extensive update of the widely acclaimed book on optical communications. It provides a well-balanced combination of optoelectronics and communication theory and will complement existing, more introductory books in the field. The book deals with the fundamental operation of the main system components, together with their limitations in the context of different system requirements. This is a valuable book for students, researchers and engineers entering the field of optical communications.

From the Publisher

This volume provides single-source coverage of the key aspects and components of the optical communication system -- the fiber itself, the components used for the optical source and the detector, and the receiver and general system considerations. It covers the semi-classical approach to the propagation of radiation through matter, the development of semiconductor theory directed from the beginning towards III-V semiconductors and optoelectronic components, and some elementary theory of communications.
