OFDM for Optical Communications
OFDM
for Optical Communications gives a coherent and comprehensive introduction
to the fundamentals of OFDM signal processing, with a distinctive focus on its
broad range of applications. OFDM
for Optical Communications evaluates the architecture, design and performance
of a number of OFDM variations, discusses coded OFDM, and gives a detailed study
of error correction codes for access networks, 100 Gb/s Ethernet and future
optical networks.
The emerging applications of optical OFDM, including single-mode fiber transmission,
multimode fiber transmission, free space optical systems, and optical access
networks are examined, with particular attention paid to passive optical networks,
radio-over-fiber, WiMAX and UWB communications.
Written by two of the leading contributors to the field, OFDM
for Optical Communications will be a unique reference for optical communications
engineers and scientists. Students, technical managers and telecom executives
seeking to understand this new technology for future-generation optical networks
will find the book invaluable.
