  abstract: "This book answers the fundamental question of how to characterize and overcome the drawbacks associated with optical communication links that suffer from various types of fading when optical signals with information traverse these wireless (atmospheric) or wired (fiber optic) channels. The authors present material to help the reader predict the capacity, data rate, spectral efficiency, and bit-error-rate (BER) associated with a channel that experiences fading. It also presents modulation techniques and methods of coding and decoding that are useful when implementing communications systems. The book discusses how to model the channels, including treating distortion due to the various fading phenomena. Light waves and their similarity to radio waves are described, and the way light propagates through the atmosphere, through materials, and through the boundary between two materials is explained. This book also presents modulation techniques and methods of coding and decoding that are useful when implementing communications systems. Fiber-optic communication is a method of transmitting information from one place to another by sending pulses of light through an optical fiber. The light forms an electromagnetic carrier wave that is modulated to carry information. Fiber is preferred over electrical cabling when high bandwidth, long distance, or immunity to electromagnetic interference are required. Optical fiber is used by many telecommunications companies to transmit telephone signals, Internet communication, and cable television signals. Researchers at Bell Labs have reached internet speeds of over 100 petabit kilometer per second using fiber-optic communication"--
