Description

The optical fiber industry has experienced a period of consolidation and reorganization and is now poised for a new surge in growth.

To take advantage of that growth, and to respond to the demand to use fiber more efficiently, designers need a better understanding of fiber optics.

Taking the approach that optical fibers are an extension of RF-based communications, the author explains basic optical concepts, applications, and systems; the nature and performance characteristics of optical fibers; and optical sources, connectors and splices.

Subsequent chapters explore current applications of fiber optic technology.

Appropriate for use as a college text, this is an accessible and thorough treatment of fiber optics, without an intimidating amount of mathematical derivations.
