With the development of new laser sources, fiber amplifiers, and other optical components, optical communication systems have undergone enormous growth and evolution in recent decades. The current trend of optical networking is to move towards dynamic, all-optical networks. In all-optical networks, information signals are transmitted from source to destination totally in the optical domain, without the usual optical-electrical-optical conversions at intermediate nodes. New challenges and opportunities emerge in different layers of the optical network architecture in this transition process.…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
With the development of new laser sources, fiber
amplifiers, and other optical components, optical
communication systems have undergone enormous growth
and evolution in recent decades. The current trend of
optical networking is to move towards dynamic,
all-optical networks. In all-optical networks,
information signals are transmitted from source to
destination totally in the optical domain, without
the usual optical-electrical-optical conversions at
intermediate nodes. New challenges and opportunities
emerge in different layers of the optical network
architecture in this transition process. This book
explores several interesting topics in both the
physical layer and the network layer of all-optical
networks. Our studies examine physical impairments
which can adversely influence network performance.
Both novel proactive and reactive approaches are
proposed to improve network performance and provide
quality of service (QoS) for users. The proposed
methods and algorithms can be especially useful to
professionals, students, and researchers working in
the field of optical communications.
Autorenporträt
Wenhao Lin received a B.S. degree and a M.S. degree in computer
science in 1995 and 2004 respectively. After receiving a Ph.D.
degree in electric engineering (focus on optical network
algorithm design) from the ECE department of Montana State
University-Bozeman, USA, he is currently a software engineer with
the Epic Company, Madison, Wisconsin.
