Description

Optical fiber telecommunications depend upon light traveling greatdistances through optical fibers. As light travels it tends todisperse and this results in some degree of signal loss. Ramanamplification is a technique that is effective in any fiber toamplify the signal light as it travels through transmission fibers,compensating for inevitable signal loss.* First comprehensive guideto Raman amplification, a technique whose use has exploded since 1997in order to upgrade fiber capacity;* Accessible to professionals justentering the field of optical fiber telecommunications;* Detailedenough for experts to use as a reference"
