Description: This book is the first to present a thorough quantitative physical reasoning and analyses on HFC system technologies, including subcarrier multiplexed lightwave transmission systems and components, RF modems for digital signals, and medium-access control protocols. This book will be very helpful to graduate students and R&D engineers, as it contains the main concepts and analytical tools needed to design a successful broadband HFC system. * The first in-depth book that systematically covers end-to-end hybrid fiber/coax broadband access technologies* The first book to cover subcarrier multiplexed lightwave systems and components for video and wireless signal distributions in great depth* The first book to overview the design principles for both RF modems and cable modem MAC protocols* A comprehensive study for graduate students and engineers who wish to do R&D in the fast growing field of optical-fiber-based two-way CATV systems and networks
