Features: This book is divided into five chapters. The first chapter elaborates on the basic concepts of optical fiber communication; the second chapter introduces the basic structure, light transmission principles, and characteristic parameters of optical fibers; the third chapter introduces the basic composition of optical fiber communication transceivers and the functional implementation of each circuit unit; the fourth chapter covers the transmission systems, basic quality indicators, overall design, performance measurement of optical fiber digital communication systems, as well as the implementation of next-generation optical fiber digital communication systems; the fifth chapter discusses the application of optical fiber communication technology in modern information networks. The content of this book is characterized by three major features: practicality, systematicity, and novelty. It emphasizes the explanation of fundamental principles and methods of optical fiber communication, as well as the introduction of practical knowledge and technologies. Additionally, it ensures a balanced and reasonable coverage of electronic and optical equipment. The book aims to enable readers, through its study, not only to master the basic principles of optical waveguides and optical fiber communication but also to grasp typical optical fiber communication equipment, and to understand the application and development of optical fiber communication in modern information networks. This book can be used as a textbook for undergraduate and graduate students majoring in communication engineering, electronic information engineering, electronic information science and technology, and optical information science and technology in universities. It is also suitable for college students and engineering professionals in related fields for learning or reference.
