Opis

Microwave Photonics: from Components to Applications and Systems deals with the rapidly growing area of Microwave Photonics, and includes an extended study of the interactions between optical signals and microwave (f > 1GHz) and millimeter-wave (f > 30 GHz) electrical signals for broadband applications. Today, the large development of photonic devices and technologies leads to an ever-increasing interest in this cross-disciplinary field. This book covers all aspects of the field of microwave photonics, including components, modeling methods, circuits and broadband systems for a wide variety of applications, such as telecommunications, radar and wireless systems.
The authors of the topics presented in this book include key-note specialists from Europe, Israel, and the United States.
