Product Description
Optical networks are the next revolution in technology, because they deliver the increased bandwidth demanded by the information explosion. Here is the first book to comprehensively cover this emerging wave, written for network engineers, administrators, and graduate-level students alike. It features case studies and research from pioneers at AT&T, Fujitsu, and NTT, offering hands-on knowledge that practitioners can immediately apply. The author, who is one of the few experts in this specialized field today, provides a thorough treatment of the system aspects of optical networks. His explanation of WDM (wavelength-division multiplexing) is particularly timely, as WDM is becoming the backbone for the next generation of the Internet. He also covers the hot areas of TDM (time-division multiplexing) and multicasting, explaining how these new technologies work together. |
