Fiber Optics: Physics and Technology

Springer, 2010

Telephone, telefax, email and internet - the key ingredient of the inner workings is the conduit: the line which is designed to carry massive amounts of data at breakneck speed. In their data-carrying capacity optical fiber lines beat other technologies (copper cable, microwave beacons, satellite links) hands down, at least in the long...

Principles of Lasers and Optics

Cambridge University Press, 2005

Radiation from lasers is different from conventional optical light because, like
microwave radiation, it is approximately monochromatic. Although each laser has
its own fine spectral distribution and noise properties, the electric and magnetic
fields from lasers are considered to have precise phase and amplitude variations
in...

Optical Communication Theory and Techniques

Springer, 2004

Since the advent of optical communications, a great technological effort has
been devoted to the exploitation of the huge bandwidth of optical fibers. Starting
from a few Mb/s single channel systems, a fast and constant technological
development has led to the actual 10 Gb/s per channel dense wavelength division
multiplexing...

Wireless Networking Handbook

New Riders Publishing, 1996

Many organizations utilize traditional wire-based networking technologies to establish connections among computers. These technologies fall into the following three categories:

• Local area networks (LANs)
• Metropolitan area networks (MANs)
• Wide area networks (WANs)

LANs support the sharing of...

Advances in Filament Yarn Spinning of Textiles and Polymers (Woodhead Publishing Series in Textiles)

Woodhead Publishing, 2014

Advances in Filament Yarn Spinning of Textiles and Polymers reviews the different types of spinning techniques for synthetic polymer-based fibers, and issues such as their effect on fiber properties, including melt, dry, wet, and gel spinning.

Synthetic polymer-based fibers are used in a great variety of consumer and...

Ultra-Fast Fiber Lasers: Principles and Applications with MATLAB® Models (Optics and Photonics)

CRC Press, 2010

Ultrashort pulses in mode-locked lasers are receiving focused attention from researchers looking to apply them in a variety of fields, from optical clock technology to measurements of the fundamental constants of nature and ultrahigh-speed optical communications. Ultrashort pulses are especially important for the next generation of...

The Worldwide History of Telecommunications

John Wiley & Sons, 2003

The first comprehensive history of the Information Age how we got there and where we are going

The exchange of information is essential for both the organization of nature and the social life of mankind. Until recently, communication between people was more or less limited by geographic proximity. Today, thanks to ongoing innovations in...

Network Sales and Services Handbook

Cisco Press, 2002

A technical handbook for network sales and customer service personnel

One of the most significant challenges in any technical organization is knowledge transfer: getting the knowledge from those "in the know" (network engineers or consultants) to those on the "front lines" (those individuals who are...

Broadband Optical Access Networks and Fiber-to-the-Home: Systems Technologies and Deployment Strategies

John Wiley & Sons, 2006

Broadband Optical Access and Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) will provide the ultimate broadband service capabilities.

Compared with the currently well-deployed broadband access technologies of ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) and Cable Modems, optical broadband access with Fiber-to-the-User’s home will cater for...

Optical Sources, Detectors, and Systems

Academic Press, 1995

Optical Sources, Detectors, and Systems presents a unified approach, from the applied engineering point of view, to radiometry, optical devices, sources, and receivers. One of the most important and unique features of the book is that it combines modern optics, electric circuits, and system analysis into a unified, comprehensive...

Genetics and Genomics of Cotton (Plant Genetics and Genomics: Crops and Models)

Springer, 2009

A few members of the Gossypium (cotton) genus are cultivated for the production of elongated single-celled fibers valued worldwide at about $20 billion annually at the farm gate, and which sustain one of the world’s largest industries (textiles) with an annual worldwide economic impact of about $500 billion. In a number of ways, cotton...
