Title: Erbium-doped fiber amplifiers
First published: 1999
Description: Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifiers, Fundamentals and Technology guides the reader from the most fundamental aspects of fiber amplifiers all the way to system design and applications. The fundamental chapters address the important issues of erbium ion properties, amplifiers fabrication, components for amplifiers, gain performance, and noise theory.

The systems chapters cover the amplifier design issues and transmission achievements resulting from the use of erbium-doped fiber amplifiers in undersea and terrestrial systems, both single channel and WDM. The coverage is such that the book is of interest to researchers, practitioners, and students new to the field.
