Optical Fiber Communications

Optical fiber communication provides students with the most up-to-date, comprehensive coverage of modern optical fiber communications and applications, striking a fine balance between theory and practice that avoids excessive mathematics and derivations. Unlike other textbooks currently available, this book covers all of the important recent technologies and developments in the field, including electro-optic modulators, coherent optical systems and silicon integrated photonic circuits. Filled with practical, relevant worked examples and exercise problems, the book presents complete coverage of the topics that optical & communications engineering students need to be successful. Extensive pedagogical features, such as numerical problems, and review questions, are also provided. Mathematics derivations and geometrical representations are included where necessary. This book includes 12 Experiments. This book is primarily intended as a text for UG students of Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Communication Engineering & Telecommunication Engineering. The book would also prove to be of immense benefit to PG students of Physics and those preparing for AMIE & AMIETE exams.
