A comprehensive reference to noise and signal interference inoptical fiber communications
Noise and Signal Interference in Optical Fiber TransmissionSystems is a compendium on specific topics within optical fibertransmission and the optimization process of the system design. Itoffers comprehensive treatment of noise and intersymbolinterference (ISI) components affecting optical fibercommunications systems, containing coverage on noise from the lightsource, the fiber and the receiver. The ISI is modeled with astatistical approach, leading to new useful computational methods.The author discusses the subject with the help of numerousapplications and simulations of noise and signal interferencetheory.
Key features:
* Complete all-in-one reference on the subject for engineers anddesigners of optical fiber transmission systems
* Discusses the physical principles behind several noisecontributions encountered in the optical communications systemsdesign, including contributions from the light source, the fiberand the receiver
* Covers the theory of the ISI for the binary signal, as well asnoise statistics
* Discusses the theory and the mathematical models of thenumerous noise components (such as optical noise, photodetectionnoise and reflection noise)
* Introduces the frequency description of the ISI and providesnew calculation methods based on the characteristic functions
* Provides useful tools and examples for optimum design ofoptical fiber transmission networks and systems
This book will serve as a comprehensive reference forresearchers, R & D engineers, developers and designers workingon optical transmission systems and optical communications.Advanced students in optical communications and related fields willalso find this book useful.
