Instrumentation and Electronics Engineering
Optoelectronics and Systems
Description
This book is an outgrowth of teaching the subject of “ Optoelectronics Devices and Instrumentation” to undergraduate students of Instrumentation and Electronics Engineering for the past couple of years consecutively. A strong need was felt to put the syllabus matter in one book in a very systematic, pedagogical manner although a number of excellent books on a very well researched and mature topic like “ Optoelectronics and Systems” are available. The book has been written particularly as per the UG syllabus prescribed by the Biju Patnaik University of Technology (BPUT), Odisha. It can serve as a text book for undergraduate students of Instrumentation and Electronics Engineering, Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering and as a reference book for graduate students pursuing a course on optoelectronics elsewhere. To facilitate the learning process for a beginner, emphasis has been given to start from introductory field theory. Some of the salient features of the book are • A formal yet adequate treatment of field theory • A good number of worked out examples • Extensive analysis of step index and graded index fibers • Detailed derivation a number of mathematical equations • Combining of optical fibre based communication systems and instrumentation systems • Compilation of a number of optical fibre based sensors/instrumentation • Coverage of some advanced topics • A good number of references
