3.0 out of 5 stars
Extensive in theory, lacks in physical implementations.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Optical Fiber Communication Systems (Artech House Optoelectronics Library) (Hardcover)
Extensive theoretical coverage of the subject. The excessive use of acronims makes it almost impossible to study without interruption. The lack of a list of acronims is sour. Would like to see more experimentally oriented treatment of actual physical implementations to supplement the theoretical equations.
5.0 out of 5 stars
good book,
