Wavelength Division Multiplexing

By Jean-Pierre Laude

This work provides the necessary theory, background and practical information for a study of wavelength division multiplexing (WDM). It describes the main characteristics of the components and of networks using WDM; covers the topics of optical amplification, soliton multiplexing and the use of neural networks in optical multiplexing; covers WDM limitations and applications; provides detailed analysis of theoretical and practical limitations of WDM including nonlinear effects and uncertainty relationships in optical multiplexing; covers LED slicing and fibre-coupled devices; and includes formulas, many with a detailed demonstration and practical examples.
