Product Description
A Unique, Cutting-Edge Approach to Optical Filter Design With more and more information being transmitted over fiber-optic lines, optical filtering has become crucial to the advanced functionality of today's communications networks. Helping researchers and engineers keep pace with this rapidly evolving technology, this book presents digital processing techniques for optical filter design. This higher-level approach focuses on filter characteristics and enables readers to quickly calculate the filter response as well as tackle larger and more complex filters. The authors incorporate numerous theoretical and experimental results from the literature and discuss applications to a variety of systems-including the new wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology, which is fast becoming the preferred method for system upgrade and expansion. Special features of this book include:
* The theory underlying various architectures that can approximate any filter function
* Filter design techniques applicable to a broad range of materials systems-from silica to fiber to microelectromechanical (MEM) systems
* Design examples relevant to filters for WDM systems and planar waveguide devices
* 250 figures as well as problem sets for use in graduate-level studies

Great book for optical filter design November 18, 2006
Madsen and Zhao did the leading work in this field, and this is their book. It has clear equations.
If you are interesting in the digital optical signal processing, you must have this book on your shelf!
 Nice content, but not nicely written March 9, 2001
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
~~~~~Contents are pretty good and updated and the examples are found to be very useful.However, the book is not well written and organized. Some expressions can only be understood by the authors themselves. The readers have to be prepared to spend much more time than they expect to figure out some minor details. Examples lack of step-by-step description. Important details are either missing or skipped in many places, assuming the readers are super-mathematicians. The book is, I would say,~~ out of a rush-to-publish job. Looking forward to 2nd Edition, if there is one.~
 A practical aproach September 20, 2000

I find this book very useful for engineers who are involve in design and optimization of optical systems for telecommunication industry.The mathematical approach to subjects gives you the oportunity to write and customize your design programs.
