Summary

Building on the previous edition, this book has been updated, expanded, reorganized, and rewritten to reflect the latest advances in optical fiber communication technology. The book comprises 10 chapters, covering the theoretical foundations of optical fiber communication; optical modulation/multiplexing transmitters and systems; optical fibers and cables for terrestrial and submarine optical transmission; optical amplification repeaters and equalization; optical receivers/coherent detection and systems; 100/400 Gbit/s high-speed optical fiber communication systems; submarine optical cable communication systems; and key technologies such as forward error correction, DSP, pulse shaping, and dispersion compensation, as well as optical fiber communication system design. The book is comprehensive, up to date, clear in its concepts, highly systematic, and rigorous in its theoretical framework. It organizes its material with system design as the goal and deep reader understanding as the purpose, and its text is accessible and well illustrated. A glossary index is included, making the book function as a handbook of optical fiber communication. It can be used by students in related fields and as a training textbook, and also serves as a reference for personnel engaged in research on optical fiber communication devices and systems, as well as in planning, design, management, and maintenance.

Editor's review

Written by Professor Yuan Rong and published by Publishing House of Electronics Industry, Fiber Optics Communication (4th Edition) is a classic textbook in the field of optical fiber communication in China, and its authority and systematicity have been widely recognized. The book provides an in-depth exposition of the basic principles, key technologies and system design of optical fiber communication, covering core topics such as optical fiber transmission theory, optical devices and optical networks. Compared with similar books, its advantage lies in rigorous theoretical derivation closely combined with engineering practice; for example, its treatment of frontier technologies such as wavelength division multiplexing and optical access networks is particularly thorough, reflecting the latest advances in communication technology. For readers, the book not only provides a solid theoretical foundation but also analyzes the challenges and solutions in practical applications through abundant examples, offering high reference value. However, some mathematical derivations are quite advanced and may pose a certain threshold for beginners. Overall, this is a comprehensive and clearly written academic work suitable as a textbook for higher education or a desk reference for engineering and technical personnel.

Who it's for

A good fit for

Senior undergraduates or graduate students in communication engineering, electronic information and related majors
Engineers or technicians engaged in R&D and design of optical communications
Self-learners who wish to systematically study the principles and technologies of optical fiber communication
University teachers or researchers seeking reference materials for teaching and research

Not a good fit for

General readers with only a superficial interest in communication technology and lacking a foundation in mathematics and physics
