This book provides a step-by-step discussion through each topic of fiber optics. Each chapter explores theoretical concepts of principles and then applies them by using experimental cases with numerous illustrations. The book works systematically through fiber optic cables, advanced fiber optic cables, light attenuation in optical components, fiber optic cable types and installations, fiber optic connectors, passive fiber optic devices, wavelength division multiplexing, optical amplifiers, optical receivers, opto-mechanical switches, and optical fiber communications. It includes important chapters in fiber optic lighting, fiber optics testing, and laboratory safety.

Über Autor(innen)

Abdul Al-Azzawi, PhD, has worked in the photonics manufacturing industry, research (NRC/Canmet), and teaching atAlgonquin College, Ontario, Canada. While employed at NRC, he participated in studying energysaving in a residential building and developing the green building assessment programme. As aphotonics engineer, he designed new production lines, modified products, developed manufacturingprocess, and designed new jigs. At Algonquin College, he has taught mechanical and photonics courses in the mechanical and photonics engineering programmes. He was a member of the founding team of the Photonics Engineering Programmes.
