Polarization Measurement and Control in Optical Fiber Communication
and Sensor Systems A practical handbook covering polarization
measurement and control in optical communication and sensor systems
In Polarization Measurement and Control in Optical Fiber
Communication and Sensor Systems, the authors deliver a
comprehensive exploration of polarization related phenomena, as
well as the methodologies, techniques, and devices used to
eliminate, mitigate, or compensate for polarization related
problems and impairments. The book also discusses
polarization-related parameter measurement and characterization
technologies in optical fibers and fiber optic devices and the
utilization of polarization to solve problems or enable new
capabilities in communications, sensing, and measurement systems.
The authors provide a practical and hands-on treatment of the
information that engineers, scientists, and graduate students must
grasp to be successful in their everyday work. In addition to
coverage of topics ranging from the use of polarization analysis to
obtain instantaneous spectral information on light sources to the
design of novel fiber optic gyroscopes for rotation sensing,
Polarization Measurement and Control in Optical Fiber Communication
and Sensor Systems offers: A thorough introduction to polarization
in optical fiber studies, including a history of polarization in
optical fiber communication and sensor systems Comprehensive
discussions of the fundamentals of polarization, including the
effects unique to optical fiber systems, as well as extensive
coverage Jones and Mueller matrix calculus for polarization
analysis In-depth treatments of active polarization controlling
devices for optical fiber systems, including polarization
controllers, scramblers, emulators, switches, and binary
polarization state generators Fulsome explorations of passive
polarization management devices, including polarizers, polarization
beam splitters/displacers, wave-plates, Faraday rotators, and
depolarizers Extensive review of polarization measurement
techniques and devices, including time-division,
amplitude-division, and wave-front division Stokes polarimeters, as
well as various Mueller matrix polarimeters for PMD, PDL, and
birefringence measurements Premiere of binary polarization state
analyzers and binary Mueller matrix polarimeters pioneered by the
authors, including their applications for highly sensitive PMD,
PDL, and birefringence measurements Comprehensive discussion on
distributed polarization analysis techniques developed by the
authors, including their applications in solving real world
problems Detailed descriptions of high accuracy polarimetric fiber
optic electric current and magnetic field sensors Perfect for
professional engineers, scientists, and graduate students studying
fiber optics, Polarization Measurement and Control in Optical Fiber
Communication and Sensor Systems enables one to quickly grasp
extensive knowledge and latest development of polarization in
optical fibers and will earn a place in the libraries of professors
and teachers of photonics and related disciplines.
