„This book would be an excellent reference for advancedundergraduate students and graduate researchers, as well asprofessional engineers.“ (Optics & PhotonicsNews, 6 June 2014)
In this book, Optical Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) isapproached from a strictly practical and application-oriented pointof view. Based on the characteristics and constraints of modernfiber-optic components, transport systems and fibers, thetext provides relevant rules of thumb and practical hints fortechnology selection, WDM system and link dimensioning, and alsofor network-related aspects such as wavelength assignment andresilience mechanisms. Actual 10/40 Gb/s WDM systems areconsidered, and a preview of the upcoming 100 Gb/ssystems and technologies for even higher bit rates is given aswell.
Key features:
* Considers WDM from ULH backbone (big picture view) down toPON access (micro view).
* Includes all major telecom and datacom applications.
* Provides the relevant background for state-of-the-art andnext-gen systems.
* Offers practical guidelines for system / linkengineering.
