Principles of Lightwave Communications

Principles of Lightwave Communications Review

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.
