Book description
The potential of photonic signal processing (PSP) to overcome
electronic limits for processing ultra-wideband signals, provide signal
conditioning that can be integrated in line with fiber optic systems, and
improve signal quality makes this technology extremely attractive for
improvement in receiver sensitivity performance. Spanning the current
transitional period, Photonic Signal Processing: Techniques and
Applications addresses the merging techniques of processing and
manipulating signals propagating in the optical domain. The book begins with
a historical perspective of PSP and introduces photonic components essential
for photonic processing systems, such as optical amplification devices,
optical fibers, and optical modulators. The author demonstrates the
representation of photonic circuits via a signal flow graph technique
adapted for photonic domain. He describes photonic signal processors, such
as differentiators and integrators, and their applications for the
generation of solitons, and then covers the application of these solitons in
optically amplified fiber transmission systems. The book illustrates the
compensation dispersion using a photonic processor, the design of optical
filters using photonic processor techniques, and the filtering of microwave
signals in the optical domain.
Exploring methods for the processing of signals in the optical domain, the
book includes solutions to photonic circuits that use signal flow techniques
and significant applications in short pulse generation, the filtering of
signals, differentiation, and the integration of signals. It delineates
fundamental techniques on the processing of signals in the optical domain as
well as their applications that lead to advanced aspects of performing
generation of short pulses, integration, differentiation, and filtering for
optical communications systems and networks and processing of ultra-high
speed signals.
