An Introduction to Photonic Switching Fabrics

Hinton, H. Scott; Erickson, J.R.; Cloonan, T.J.; Tooley, F.A.P.; McCormick, F.B.; Lentine, A.L.

In response to the increasing interest in developing photonic switching fabrics, this book gives an overview of the many technologies from a systems designer's perspective. Optically transparent devices, optical logic devices, and optical hardware are all discussed in detail and set into a systems context.
Comprehensive, up-to-date, and profusely illustrated, the work will provide a foundation for the field, especially as broadband services are more fully developed.
