Fiber-Optic Communication Systems

This book provides a comprehensive account of fiber-optic communication systems. The3rd edition ofthis book is used worldwide as a textbook in many universities. This4th edition incorporates recent advances that have occurred, in particular two new chapters. One deals with the advanced modulation formats (such as DPSK, QPSK, and QAM) that are increasingly being used for improving spectral efficiency of WDM lightwave systems. The second chapterfocuses onnew techniques such as all-optical regeneration that are under development and likely to be used in future communication systems. All other chaptersare updated, as well.
