The authors research team is responsible for the identification, assessment, feasibility prototyping, and early development of new technology critical for metropolitan and long distance networks. These networks include high-capacity, ultralong-haul WDM optical line systems, optical add/drop multiplexers, optical cross-connects, and distributed mesh operation systems. The author best known for researching, developing, and introducing external modulation and pulse generation into high-speed fiber transmission systems deployed worldwide.
