Fibre Optics are becoming an inseparable part of telecommunications technology. This book provides the reader with a self contained treatment of all the theory and design criteria needed to design high speed and multi-wavelengths fibre optic communication systems.

Volume 2 is devoted to the design of optical receivers and transmitters. The design criteria spans high speed, low noise electronic circuit design, embedded with the topical requirements for fibre optic applications.

• Presents a modular approach at device, module, system and network levels



• Describes the theories and designs of the fibre optic transmitter, optical amplifier, fibre optic receiver, optical fibre systems, etc. 



• Together with Volume 1 Bottacchi covers all the theory and design criteria of high speed and multi wavelength fibre optic communication systems

Based on successful industrial short courses and with a strong emphasis on 'real' system design, Bottacchi s comprehensive work will become an indispensable hands on reference for R&D engineers, system designers and postgraduate students in the field of Telecoms.
