Over the last three decades, interest in Infrared (IR) technology as a <br />
medium to convey information has grown considerably. This is reflected <br />
by the increasing number of devices such as laptops, PDAs, and mobile <br />
phones that incorporate optical wireless transceivers and also by the <br />
increasing number of optical wireless links available for indoor and <br />
outdoor use. The popularity of IR is based on the advantages it has over <br />
radio including unregulated bandwidth, immunity to radio interference, <br />
and inherent security. Optical Wireless Communications examines some of <br />
the most important features of optical wireless communication systems. <br />
It considers the benefits and limitations of IR as a medium conveying <br />
information wirelessly and compares the advantages and disadvantages of <br />
infrared to microwave and other radio systems. It also details the <br />
evolution of IR communication systems and describes atmospheric and <br />
other types of data transmission limitations. The book presents design <br />
fundamentals of optical concentrators, as well as a review of some of <br />
the most important receiver optical front-ends (containing imaging or <br />
non-imaging concentrators and optical filters), including an explanation <br />
of the different sources of infrared noise and an introduction to eye <br />
safety. It also describes optical wireless transmitter and receiver <br />
design issues, typical modulation, coding, and multiple access <br />
techniques, and introduces IrDA protocols and wireless IR networking. <br />
