  • Abstract
    The principles underlying optical detection are reviewed and the practical realisation of devices and receivers for digital optical communications is discussed. Some emphasis is placed on the advanced receiver signal processing techniques-both electronic and optoelectronic-that are now coming forward to provide a performance approaching the fundamental limits imposed by quantum mechanical considerations
