What telecommunications professionals need to know about nonlinearoptical communication systems This book responds to the need for a coherent approach to nonlinearoptical communication systems. It gives telecommunicationsresearchers and engineers a handle on the unique problems presentedby the proliferation of optical technologies in telecommunicationsin recent years and provides problem-solving strategies for variousnetwork functions and operations. The product of a collaborative effort by four well-knownresearchers in telecommunications transmission systems, this volumecovers design basics, network performance, and state-of-the-artsystem analysis tools and is supplemented with hundreds ofillustrations as well as appendices containing the necessarymathematical derivations. It details: * Design principles of the network transmission layer with opticaltechnologies and fiber nonlinearities in place. * Performance evaluation for a variety of optical transmissionsystems operating under nonlinear propagation regimes. * Local area networks, regional networks, and geographicalnetworks--their potential transmission capacity and possibleproblems. * Examples of effective design from the most promising nonlinearoptical transmission systems. * The methodology for design and analysis of a generic system
