Microwave photonics continues to see rapid growth. The integration of optical fiber and wireless networks has become a commercial reality and is becoming increasingly pervasive. Such hybrid technology will lead to many innovative applications, including backhaul solutions for mobile networks and ultrabroadband wireless networks that can provide users with very high bandwidth services. 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.
The book features contributions by leading international researchers, many of whom are pioneers in the field. They examine wave generation, measurement, detection, control, and propagation in detail, as well as the devices and components that enable ultrawide-band and ultrafast transmission, switching, and signal processing. These devices and components include optical-controlled microwave devices, optical transmitters, receivers, switching devices, detectors, and modulators. The book explores the theory, techniques, and technologies that are fueling applications such as radio-over-fiber, injection-locked semiconductor lasers, and terahertz photonics. Throughout, the contributors share insights on overcoming current limitations and on potential developments.
What’s New in This Edition
- Two new chapters, on fiber Bragg gratings for microwave photonics applications and ultrawide-band sub-THz photonic wireless links
- Updates throughout, reflecting advances in the field
- New illustrations in each chapter
Fully illustrated with more than 300 figures and tables, this book offers a detailed, wide-ranging overview of the current state and future directions of this burgeoning technology.

About the Author
Chi H. Lee received a B.S. in electrical engineering from the National Taiwan University in 1959 and a Ph.D. in applied physics from Harvard University in 1968. He has been a faculty member of the electrical and computer engineering department at the University of Maryland, where he is now a professor emeritus. Professor Lee’s areas of research include microwave photonics, ultrafast optoelectronics, lasers, and electro-optic devices. He is a fellow of the IEEE, the Optical Society of America, and the Photonic Society of Chinese Americans. He was the chairman of the technical committee on lightwave technology in the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques (MTT) Society. Professor Lee was the general co-chair of the International Meeting on Microwave Photonics in 1998 and the chairman of the Steering Committee of the International Microwave Photonics Meeting for 1999. He was the chairman of the IEEE/LEOS technical committee on microwave photonics from 1997 to 2003 and a guest editor of the special issue on microwave photonics for the Journal of Lightwave Technology published in December 2003.
