Raman Amplification in Fiber Optical Communication Systems

Raman Amplification in Fiber Optical Communication Systems
Clifford Headley (Editor), Govind Agrawal (Editor)
ISBN: 0120445069
May 2003

"…very comprehensive and covers the entire topic of Raman amplification as applied to communication systems. As befitting a book of this length, the treatment is exhaustive and provides a range of information, from historical perspective, to current implementations, to some forecasts of important technologies for the future. Raman Amplification in Fiber Optical Communication Systems is an excellent book to fully understand how this cutting-edge technology works…In brief, I highly recommend reading this book." – Bertrand Desthieux, Editor-in-Chief of Optical Fiber Technology.

Optical fiber telecommunications depend upon light traveling great distances through optical fibers. As light travels it tends to disperse and this results in some degree of signal loss. Raman amplification is a technique that is effective in any fiber to amplify the signal light as it travels through transmission fibers, compensating for inevitable signal loss.

* First comprehensive guide to Raman amplification, a technique whose use has exploded since 1997 in order to upgrade fiber capacity;
* Accessible to professionals just entering the field of optical fiber telecommunications;
* Detailed enough for experts to use as a reference.

Optical Communication Theory and Techniques

Optical Communication Theory and Techniques
Forestieri, Enrico (Editor)
ISBN: 0387231323
October 2003

This book is a collection of papers dealing with the theoretical aspects of optical communications. It is divided into four parts: Information and Communication Theory for Optical Communications; Coding Theory and Techniques; Characterizing, Measuring, and Calculating Performance in Optical Fiber Communication Systems; and Modulation Formats and Detection. Each paper is self-contained, and will give the reader a clear picture of the treated topic, an overview of the theoretical aspects, and an idea of the most recent advances.

Survivability and Traffic Grooming in WDM Optical Networks

Survivability and Traffic Grooming in WDM Optical Networks

The advent of fiber optic transmission systems and wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) have led to a dramatic increase in the usable bandwidth of single fiber systems. This book provides detailed coverage of survivability (dealing with the risk of losing large volumes of traffic data due to a failure of a node or a single fiber span) and traffic grooming (managing the increased complexity of smaller user requests over high capacity data pipes), both of which are key issues in modern optical networks. A framework is developed to deal with these problems in wide-area networks, where the topology used to service various high-bandwidth (but still small in relation to the capacity of the fiber) systems evolves toward making use of a general mesh. Effective solutions, exploiting complex optimization techniques, and heuristic methods are presented to keep network problems tractable. Newer networking technologies and efficient design methodologies are also described.

Ethernet Passive Optical Networks

Ethernet Passive Optical Networks

Ethernet Passive Optical Networks is the IEEE’s (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) approved architecture of choice for the next generation of broadband access. Written by an author of the IEEE 802.3ah standard, this is the first book to explain the EPON architecture, analyze its performance, and annotate the standard. For any engineer or graduate student building equipment for broadband access or service provider offering such service, this will serve as the “authorized” guide to EPON.

GMPLS Technologies: Broadband Backbone Networks and Systems

GMPLS Technologies: Broadband Backbone Networks and Systems Multi-Protocol Label Switch (MPLS) and Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) are key technologies for next-generation IP backbone networks. Until now, however, engineers have been forced to search for technical papers on this subject and read them in an ad-hoc manner. At last there is a book that explains both MPLS and GMPLS concepts in a systematic way.

GMPLS: Architecture and Applications

GMPLS: Architecture and Applications “This is a strong author team and they have produced a much-needed and timely book”
–Bruce Davie, Cisco Fellow

“GMPLS technology provides a keystone for next generation integrated optical networks, and this book is the one-stop reference on the subject.”
–Kireeti Kompella, Juniper Networks and CCAMP working group co-chair
