Microwave Photonics - Grand Format

Microwave Photonics, Second Edition systematically introduces important technologies and applications in this emerging field. It also reviews recent advances in micro- and millimeter-wavelength and terahertz-frequency systems. Leading international researchers examine wave generation, measurement, detection, control, and propagation, as well as the devices and components that enable ultrawide-band and ultrafast transmission, switching, and signal processing.
The contributors, many of whom are pioneers in the field, explore the theory, techniques, and technologies that are fueling applications such as radio-over-fiber, injection-locked semiconductor lasers, and terahertz photon-ics. Throughout, they share insights on overcoming current limitations and on potential developments.
