There are three major advantages for coherent optical orthogonal frequency-division
multiplexing (CO-OFDM) transmission using digital signal processing. First, coherent …

Coherent optical OFDM (CO-OFDM) has emerged as an attractive modulation format for the
forthcoming 100 Gb/s Ethernet. However, even the spectral-efficient implementation of CO …

Today's optical networks function are in a fairly static fashion and are built to operate within
well-defined specifications. This scenario is quite challenging for next generation high …

The purpose of this book is to introduce the reader to most advanced topics of (i) wireless
communications,(ii) free-space optical (FSO) communications,(iii) indoor optical wireless …

In this paper, we conduct theoretical and experimental study on the PMD-supported
transmission with coherent optical orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (CO-OFDM) …

We develop an analytic model of Coherent Optical Orthogonal Frequency Division
Multiplexing (OFDM) propagation and detection over multi-span long-haul fiber links …

This paper discusses the realization of terabit per second high speed and high spectral-
efficiency optical transmissions using much lower speed electronics and optoelectronics …

Knowing magnitude, phase, and polarization responses is of great importance for fabrication
and application of optical devices. A large variety of parameters such as insertion loss …

Optical orthogonal frequency division multiplex (OFDM) symbol generation by all-optical
discrete Fourier transform (DFT) is proposed and investigated for 100-Gbps transmission …
