Optical fiber communication has indeed come a long way from the 1970s. From being a favorite subject of science fiction movies and books, today it is believable reality that finds applications in many spheres. This book explores the dominant role of optical fiber communication in the telecommunication industry, as it caters to the ever-increasing demand for high data rate transmission. It provides an overview of the history and origin of optic fiber communication and discusses the manufacturing techniques, characteristics and current applications of optic fibers. It also describes the types of fiber links in use today, the elements of optic fiber communication and the design considerations. It finally presents a brief outlook of the proposed new technologies to overcome the limitations of current optical fibers and enhance their data carrying capacity to meet the emerging demands worldwide. The book is targeted at students (as an introductory course material) and those who are not familiar with the subject and are eager to know more.
