Optical Communications from a Fourier Perspective: Fourier Theory and Optical Fiber Devices and Systems covers Fourier theory and signal analysis over photonic components, including time lenses in optical communication. Sections cover wave propagation in optical waveguides based on Maxwell equations and the nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Optical Fourier transform in the form of time lens is covered, for example in modulation format conversion and spectrum magnification, and couplers and their use for optical discrete Fourier transformation are also discussed. Other important subjects are discussed such as shot noise, thermal noise and also the basics of four wave mixing in relation to time lenses. Detailed derivations and a deeper background for the chapters are provided in appendices where appropriate. Some of the theory is more generally applicable beyond optical communication and is of relevance also for communications engineering. The Fourier theory dimension of the book presents the relationship between Fourier series and Fourier integrals and also the related Laplace transform.

Reviews for Optical Communications from a Fourier Perspective: Fourier Theory and Optical Fiber Devices and Systems

"""...the book contains a short discussion on the basic relations for the wave propagation in optical fibers but a detailed discussion of the specific propagating modes is outside the scope of this book… An important focus of the book is related to all-optical signal processing... This book covers a vast amount of material and it impresses by a very thorough analysis with extensive appendices... The book is thus very well suited for an advanced undergraduate student with respect to the first part of the book and for a graduate student with respect to the second part of the book. It is also very helpful that each chapter is concluded with a short summary at its end... represents a valuable extension to the existing literature providing the reader with a very deep knowledge for better understanding advanced optical communication systems."" --Klaus Petermann, Technische Universität Berlin, Germany, IEEE Photonics Society News"
