Description Updated to include the latest information on light wave technology, Optical Fiber Telecommunication III, Volumes A & B
are invaluable for scientists, students, and engineers in the modern telecommunications industry. This two-volume set includes the most
current research available in optical fiber telecommunications, light wave technology, and photonics/optoelectronics. The authors cover
important background concepts such as SONET, coding device technology, andWOM components as well as projecting the trends in telecommunications
for the 21st century.
