We review the evolution of fiber-optic communication systems employing intensity modulation and direct detection through several generations, present how chromatic dispersion both prevents and faci
Systems modulating, transporting, and detecting lightwaves have tremendously evolved in the past four decades.
In spite of some setbacks, the last 10 years have seen phenomenal advances and growth in optical systems/networks.
This paper discusses an optical means for correcting deterministic impairments.
One of the ESA candidate cornerstone missions is dedicated to wide-angle astrometry and aims at dramatically increasing the accuracy of astrometric measurements and the limiting magnitude with resp
The promise of digital optical computing is based on massively parallel interconnections between logic gates, which allow for novel architectures, and the possibility of ultrafast switching device
Summary form only given.
This paper shows that any point set has an e-core-set of size [1/e], and this bound is tight in the worst case. A faster algorithm given here finds an e-core-set of size at most 2/e.
Measurement of the large-signal transient response of a high- speed InGaAsP laser to an ultrashort rise-time current pulse is reported.
Space-Division Multiplexing for long distance transmission over multi-mode fibers requires mode-multiplexers with high mode selectivity and capable of exciting all fiber modes in a controlled way.
