In this scenario, fiber optics and optical devices play a leading role, as they allow for unprecedented growth in our capacity to cope with the ever-increasing traffic demand. Optical transmission solutions range from high-speed networks based on coherent detection and advanced modulation formats for long-haul-level communications, to networks still relying on traditional intensity modulation and direct detection receivers for short-reach communications, down to intra-data center scenarios. In between there is a whole gamut of network architectures, providing different solutions for specific applications, targeting the minimization of cost-per-bit as a trade-off between capacity and overall implementation cost, in order for operators to cope with the increasing traffic demand while still providing reasonable market accessibility. Currently, most communications rely on optical technologies, and the worldwide goal is the optimum trade-off between transmission speed and cost-per-bit. This is usually pursued by i) manufacturing low-cost devices, ii) the introduction of digital solutions to overcome the physical limitations of optical communications systems and iii) the optimization of network design. Contributions to this Special Issue address these three subjects, and provide valuable insights into the optical fiber communications world. 606 $aTechnology: general issues$2bicssc 606 $aHistory of engineering & technology$2bicssc 610 $aoptical interconnects 610 $aon-off keying 610 $apulse amplitude modulation 610 $amisorientation 610 $aoptical communication 610 $aInGaAs/GaAsP quantum well 610 $aoptical properties 610 $alocalization potential 610 $adigital predistortion 610 $amagnitude selective affine 610 $aradio over fiber 610 $aneural network 610 $aerror vector magnitude 610 $aadjacent channel power ratio 610 $aPON 610 $aC-band 610 $achromatic dispersion compensation 610 $adirect detection 610 $a200 Gbps per wavelength 610 $atranslucent optical networks 610 $aregenerator placement 610 $adynamic traffic 610 $aheuristics 610 $anetwork design 610 $asparse regeneration 610 $a3R 610 $aregenerator 615 7$aTechnology: general issues 615 7$aHistory of engineering & technology 700 $aRizzelli$b Giuseppe$4edt$01316712 702 $aRizzelli$b Giuseppe$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910640000003321 996 $aAdvances in Optical Fiber Communications$93032747 997 $aUNINA
