This book provides a comprehensive account of fiber-optic communication systems. The 3rd
edition of this book is used worldwide as a textbook in many universities. This 4th edition …

The practical implementation of erbium-doped fiber amplifiers with gain at 1.55/spl mu/m
allows long unrepeatered transmission distances. However, in order to realize high data …

We investigate the fundamental limitations of dispersion mitigation filters. By analyzing the
dispersion compensating process from basic principles, we demonstrate how a digital filter …

A new method for dispersion mitigation is presented for low-cost and simple networks. The
method does not require dispersion-compensating fibers, special optical filters, coherent …

Next-generation analog radio frequency over fiber (RFoF) links will require dispersion
compensation. Most dispersion compensation methods are based on additional optical …

The intensity noise and the performance in a 1.7 Gb/s digital system of 1.3 mu m InGaAsP
multilongitudinal mode lasers is discussed. The total intensity noise, mode partitioning, and …

We investigate the effect of optical chromatic dispersion on ordinary double-sided
modulation (DSM) quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM-M) protocol in RF-over-fiber …

A dispersion-compensating filter for next-generation low-cost analog and digital optical links
is developed. In these high-frequency optical channels, even weak dispersion can be …

External modulation, such as with a Mach–Zehnder modulator (MZM), is commonly used in
optical communications to reduce nonlinear signal distortions. However, in addition to the …

Dispersion measurement data from two sets of fiber cable lengths were employed to
determine the histograms of slope and wavelength of zero chromatic-dispersion in …
