{"product_id":"9781118683446","title":"Fiber Optic Communications: Fundamentals and Applications","description":"\u003cp\u003eFiber-optic communication systems have advanced dramatically over the last four decades, since the era of copper cables, resulting in low-cost and high-bandwidth transmission. Fiber optics is now the backbone of the internet and long-distance telecommunication. Without it we would not enjoy the benefits of high-speed internet, or low-rate international telephone calls.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book introduces the basic concepts of fiber-optic communication in a pedagogical way. The important mathematical results are derived by first principles rather than citing research articles. In addition, physical interpretations and real-world analogies are provided to help students grasp the fundamental concepts.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eKey Features: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eLucid explanation of key topics such as fibers, lasers, and photodetectors.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes recent developments such as coherent communication and digital signal processing.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eComprehensive treatment of fiber nonlinear transmission.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWorked examples, exercises, and answers.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAccompanying website with PowerPoint slides and numerical experiments in MATLAB.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntended primarily for senior undergraduates and graduates studying fiber-optic communications, the book is also suitable as a professional resource for researchers working in the field of fiber-optic communications.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47078316998896,"sku":"9781118683446","price":110.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781118683446_p0.jpg?v=1769889445","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781118683446","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
