The field of fibre optics communications has exploded over the past two decades. Fibre is an integral part of modern day communication infrastructure and can be found along roads, in buildings, hospitals and machinery. Fibre optic communication has revolutionised the telecommunications industry. It has also made its presence widely felt within the data networking community as well. Using fibre optic cable, optical communications have enabled telecommunications links to be made over much greater distances and with much lower levels of loss in the transmission medium and possibly most important of all, fiber optical communications has enabled much higher data rates to be accommodated. Optical fibers can be used to transmit light and thus information over long distances. Fiber-based systems have largely replaced radio transmitter systems for long-haul optical data transmission. They are widely used for telephony, but also for Internet traffic, long high-speed local area networks (LANs), cable TV (CATV), and increasingly also for shorter distances within buildings. In most cases, silica fibers are used, except for very short distances, where plastic optical fibers can be advantageous. The basic components are light signal transmitter, the optical fiber, and the photo detecting receiver. The additional elements such as fiber and cable splicers and connectors, regenerators, beam splitters, and optical amplifiers are employed to improve the performance of the communication system. The book offers a completely up-to-date, accessible, and in-depth introduction to the principles and applications of optical fiber communications. It describes the recent developments in optical fiber communication materials, devices, components, and systems.

This is the second edition of this highly successful book, giving an introduction to the fundamentals, problems and techniques of design and utilisation of optical fibre systems. all the chapters have been updated and many have been extended with extra sections including the most recent developments. In addition, three new chapters have been incorporated.

Module 24, Introduction to Fiber Optics, is an introduction to fiber optics.The Navy Electricity and Electronics Training Series (NEETS) was developed for use by personnel in many electrical- and electronic-related Navy ratings. Written by, and with the advice of, senior technicians in these ratings, this series provides beginners with fundamental electrical and electronic concepts through self-study. The presentation of this series is not oriented to any specific rating structure, but is divided into modules containing related information organized into traditional paths of instruction.

Carefully structured to instill practical knowledge of fundamental issues, Optical Fiber Communication Systems with MATLAB and Simulink Models describes the modeling of optically amplified fiber communications systems using MATLAB and Simulink. This lecture-based book focuses on concepts and interpretation, mathematical procedures, and engineering

In the last decade, China has experienced one of the fastest economic growth in the world. Leading this enormous growth is the development of telecommunications that has a growth rate far exceeding that of its GNP. With such fast growth, China will have the largest telecommunication network with 420 million lines by 2010. The backbone of the national telecom network in China is primarily optical fiber cables today.This book contains a selection of reports reviewing the progress of the research and development in optoelectronics and optical fiber communications in China. The first four papers focus on the current development in optical fiber communications with particular interest in studies of soliton transmission and optical WDM transmission experiments. The next four papers describe the research results on quantum well lasers, bi-stable lasers, electro-absorption modulators and SEED, and photonic integrated devices. Fiber ring lasers using EDFA and the ASE noise in the PIN receiver due to EDFA are discussed in the next two papers, respectively. The last two papers describe the research activities and results of the development of the GaAs ICs for high speed lighwave systems, and their characterization using optical sampling techniques. The contents included in this book may be regarded as the epitome of the current status of research in this field in mainland China.
