Currently, light waves are ready to come into boxes of computers in high-performance computing systems like data centers and super computers to realize intra-box optical interconnects. For inter-box optical interconnects, light waves have successfully been introduced by OE modul…
Optical Fibers and RF: A natural combination
This book begins with a discussion of underlying physical concepts important to optical fiber systems. Chapter 2 discusses the construction and propagation of light in the two basic types of cylindrical glass fibers, multimode and single-mode. Non-cylindrical optical waveguides …
The huge progress which has been achieved in the field is covered here, in the first comprehensive monograph on vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) since eight years. Apart from chapters reviewing the research field and the laser fundamentals, there are comprehensiv…
Bates believes that with each new technology or protocol there are three questions to be asked: What is it? What is it going to do for me? How much is it going to cost me? This market-driven approach provides a succinct analysis of systems and options without the technical gore.
"*Bestselling author Regis ""Bud"" Bates utilizes a market-driven, ""business needs"" approach to optical communications *Provides a concise analysis of systems and options without being overly technical and translates complicated jargon into clear business terms *Includes appli…
This reference provides an overview of near-Earth laser communication theory developments including component and subsystem technologies, fundamental limitations, and approaches to reach those limits. It covers basic concepts and state-of-the-art technologies, emphasizing device…
