Inhaltsangabe

In this book, Optical Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) is approached from a strictly practical and application-oriented point of view. Based on the characteristics and constraints of modern fiber-optic components, transport systems and fibers, the text provides relevant rules of thumb and practical hints for technology selection, WDM system and link dimensioning, and also for network-related aspects such as wavelength assignment and resilience mechanisms. Actual 10/40 Gb/s WDM systems are considered, and a preview of the upcoming 100 Gb/s systems and technologies for even higher bit rates is given as well.
 
Key features:
* Considers WDM from ULH backbone (big picture view) down to PON access (micro view).
* Includes all major telecom and datacom applications.
* Provides the relevant background for state-of-the-art and next-gen systems.
* Offers practical guidelines for system / link engineering.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

A practical, application-oriented guide to state-of-the-art and next-gen WDM systems and networks

Written by an author team with unrivaled experience in both technical research and commercial applications, this book treats Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) from a purely practical, application-oriented point of view. Working from the ULH backbone down to the level of PON access, the authors discuss the major characteristics and constraints of modern fiber-optic components, transport systems, and fibers and their interrelation in state-of-the-art WDM systems and networks. In addition to considering major telecom and datacom applications including a range of specific enterprise and inter-data-center applications the authors provide a fascinating and informative look forward at next-gen systems.

Featuring a clear, accessible narrative and hundreds of equations and diagrams, Wavelength Division Multiplexing provides timely coverage of:

• System/link engineering with practical guidelines
• Expert rules of thumb on technology selection and link dimensioning
• 10/40 Gb/s WDM systems with real-world examples
• Emerging 100 Gb/s systems and technologies
• Developments in system access (passive WDM, WDM-PON)
• Coherent vs. non-coherent high-capacity transport
• Energy efficiency in WDM transport
• WDM system and network monitoring
• Protection and resilience techniques

Wavelength Division Multiplexing is a valuable working resource for engineers in transport-related departments at network operators and large enterprises. It also is a valuable reference for technicians in need of a guide to current and next-gen fiber-optic transport systems and networks.
