Coherent Optical System Design

By Pieter W. Hooijmans

A comprehensive treatment of the system selections and optimizations related to the design of a coherent optical transmission link. Presents a unified theory of IF-detection in coherent optical receivers which covers all modulation schemes, receiver configurations and demodulation techniques. Demonstrates the link between theoretical results and hardware realization. Features case studies of two coherent optical systems designed and built by the author and his colleagues, including practical design guidelines which are the combined outcome of theoretical analysis and practical experience gained by constructing these systems.
