ABCs of Fiber Optic Communication : A Practical Handbook

"This book attempts to provide a systematic progression from the core concepts to the practical aspects covering the entire gamut of activities associated with the set-up, maintenance and trouble shooting of modern photonic networks. This book is unique in its presentation -- The theoretical concepts of light transmission through a fiber, types of fiber, ley parameters of a fiber, optical interfaces, testing tools and techniques, practical guide for maintaining & trouble shooting fiber networks and systems along with the architecture and components of Synchronous Digital Hierarchy, Optical Transport Networks and Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing are presented in this concise and well-illustrated text. This book would be useful to individuals associated with most of the areas of the vast telecom as well as data networking spectrum including planning, engineering, network management & operations, installation and commissioning as well as operations and maintenance, besides any knowledge seeker. This book will be specially relevant as a practical handbook to the massive technical workforce tasked with installing and maintenance of our vast optical networks and as a reference text for graduates, postgraduates and diploma students of allied engineering disciplines."
