Advanced Optical Communication

Advanced Optical Communication. Instructor: Prof. R.K. Shevgaonkar, Department of Electrical Engineering, IIT Bombay. The content in this course is designed to cover a one semester course at the post graduate level. After providing the basic foundation of fiber optic communication, the course covers the advanced topics like the power penalty in a link, fiber amplifiers like the EDFA and Raman Amplifiers, nonlinear fiber optics, optical switches and routers, dispersion compensators, DWDM systems, wavelength routed optical networks, optical CDMA systems, etc. (from nptel.ac.in)
