About this book
Photonic-based A/D conversion has received and continues to receive considerable attention as an alternative approach to providing enhanced resolution and speed in high-performance applications. Some of the potential advantages of using photonic technologies are high-speed clocking, broadband sampling, reduced mutual interference of signals, and compatibility with existing photonic-based systems. This book provides a comprehensive look at the application of photonic approaches to the problem of analog-to-digital conversion. It shows progress made, discusses present research, and gives a glimpse of potential future technologies.

Reviews
From the reviews of the first edition:
"This book is intended to serve as a resource for scientists, engineers, and students interested in performance characteristics and measures of A/D converters, classical A/D conversion techniques, and photonic approaches to A/D conversion. … The book is well organized and the text easily understandable. … It is a book which should be available in any University library." (D.H. Miller, Optik, Vol. 117, 2006)
"The book has a readable style unlike others. … The book starts off with a simple to read introduction. … It would be useful to people who already had some knowledge in the field and would like an overview, such as an academic wishing to form a new course." (Justin Blows, The Physicist, Vol. 38 (5), 2001)
