DESCRIPTION:
Palais of Arizona State University
A Customer said It does not cover the basic understanding deep enough. If you are looking for a theoretical book concerning basic understanding of fiber optics and fiber optic communication, this is a good book for you. This book contains basic mathematics and physics concepts of the fiber optics. I think this book is suitable for researchers and anybody who is interested in the fiber optics from physics point of view.But if you are looking for a basic understanding non-mathematical of fiber optics and fiber optic communication, this is definitely not a good book for you. I could say that this book is for graduate student. Fiber Optic Communications by Palais This is a good book for an introductory course in fiber optics for a B.S.E.E. program.But if you are looking for an in depth description of fiber optics communication, then you should check out "Fiber Optic Communications" by John Senior, published by Prentice-Hall. And for an introduction to the fiber optics theory without mathematical discussion, "Fiber Optic Communication: An applied approach" by A. Khan, published by Pearson Custom Publishing, is also a good introductory book for students in the telecommunications area.. A very good introduction zwawi@hotmail.com This book is a very good introduction to this subject for engineering and sience students. It coveres the principles in a very clear way and it gives you also a good overview over the practical implementation of fiber optic networks and systems in real life.
This new and fully revised Fifth Edition of Fiber Optic Communications incorporates coverage of significant advances made in the fiber industry in recent years to present a comprehensive and in-depth introduction to the basics of communicating with optical fiber transmission lines. New and expanded topics include Raman amplifier, erbium-doped waveguide amplifier, the arrayed waveguide grating, electroabsorption modulator, optical micro-electro-mechanical (MEMs) components, dispersion compensation, tunable light sources, tunable filters, optical time-division multiplexing, dense and course waveleng
Palais marks the book's twentieth anniversary. In the 20 years since the first edition of the book was published, fiber optics systems have become more flexible and less costly and information capacity and transmission length have increased. This edition includes the many new and improved components and system architectures that have been added to the fiber-optic-communications designer's tool kit. New component discussions describeImproved fibers that more fully utilize the optical spectrumNon-zero dispersion shifted fibersGraded-index polymer fibersRaman amplifiersErbium-doped waveguide amplifiersArrayed waveguide gratingsElectroabsorption modulatorsOptical micro-electro-mechanical (MEMs) componentsDispersion compensatorsTunable light sourcesTunable filtersSmall-form-factor connectorsNon-adhesive splicesExpanded coverage of system strategies and considerations includeOptical time-division mul
