"Optical Communication" ed. by Narottam Das

This book presents up to date results on communication systems, along with the explanations of their relevance, from leading researchers in this field. The book is targeted at research, development and design engineers from the teams in manufacturing industry, academia and telecommunication industries.

The chapters cover general concepts of optical communication, components, systems, networks, signal processing and MIMO systems. In recent years, optical components and other enhanced signal processing functions are also considered in depth for optical communications systems. The researcher has also concentrated on optical devices, networking, signal processing, and MIMO systems and other enhanced functions for optical communication.
