Coherent and Nonlinear Lightwave CommunicationsThis is a practical source on recent developments in coherent and nonlinear lightwave communications. The book systematically presents up-to-date explanations of all the relevant physical principles and recent research in this emerging area. Providing an unparallelled engineering-level treatment (with 700 equations), this reference also describes the progression of coherent and nonlinear technology from yesterday's experimental field to today's practical applications tool. This work is intended as a tool for research telecommunication engineers, applications engineers working with broadband telecom systems and networks, and postgraduate students. |

Thus , there can be two local oscillators in a heterodyne detection scheme : the
optical local oscillator and the electrical one . We use the full name for the
corresponding oscillator to prevent possible confusion . By the coherent detection
...

The sensitivity of a coherent optical receiver is determined , above all else , by
the influence of shot noise , which occurs in the photodetection process of the
incoming optical signals and signals from the local optical oscillator . Other
