This book covers a wide range of technical issues relating to lightwave technologies using high coherence lightwaves. Electromagnetic wave communication started when the first wireless system was invented by Marconi in 1895. However, we had to wait about one hundred years to realize a similar technology in the lightwave frequency region. The invention of lasers in 1960 and two technology innovations in 1970 -low loss silica fiber and semiconductor lasers operating at room temperature - promoted the development of fiber-optic transmission systems. The deployment of high-speed long-haul fiber-optic transmission systems has led to the formation of domestic and international trunk ... Read more

Reviews for Coherent Lightwave Communications Technology
`Although this book is entitled Coherent Lightwave Technology, which is its major theme, much of the material is also applciable more widely to multichannel optical transmission systmes in general. The scope of the book is from the basic theory of coherent communications through to practical engineered systems and their design.' ... Read more
