Optical fiber communications : principles and practice John M. Senior, assisted by M. Yousif Jamro - 3rd ed. - Harlow, England : Financial Times/Prentice Hall, c2009. - 1075 p. : ill. ; 24 cm.
Optical fiber waveguides -- Transmission characteristics of optical fibers -- Optical fibers and cables -- Optical fiber connections: joints, couplers and isolators -- Optical sources 1: the laser -- Optical sources 2: the light-emitting diode -- Optical detectors -- Direct detection receiver performance considerations -- Optical amplification, wavelength conversion and regeneration -- Integrated optics and photonics -- Optical fiber systems 1: intensity modulation/direct detection -- Optical fiber systems 2: coherent and phase modulated -- Optical fiber measurements -- Optical networks.
"This book, now in its third edition, has been extensively updated to include both new developments and improvements to technology and their utilization within optic fiber global communications network. This edition, which contains and additional chapter and many new sections, is now structured into 15 chapters to facilitate a logical progression of the material, to enable both straightforward access to topics and provide an appropriate background and theoretical support." "This new edition remains a comprehensive introductory text with a practical orientation for undergraduate and postgraduate engineers and scientists. It provides coverage of all aspects of the technology and encompasses the new developments in the field."--Jacket.
