Signaling-Free Optical Burst Switching
In WDM mesh networks, wavelengths on a link are exclusively assigned to demands with no sharing. This can lead to poor utilization because data traffic often tends to be bursty...
Raman Amplification in the S-band
Raman amplification promises to play an important role in opening the S-band for optical data transmission. We review some of the advantages of Raman amplification and some of the challenges facing an...
Breaking the Physical Barriers With Electronic Dynamically Compensating Optics (eDCO)
Business and residential broadband services are without a doubt fueling service providers' and cable operators' positive momentum. However, their deployment requires the implementation of emerging technologies (such as Passive Optical...
A Comparison of Next-Generation 40-Gbps Technologies
There are many proposed optical transmission systems which offer 40-Gbps/ wavelength capacity. The unbridled adoption of these solutions may well depend on the degree to which they overlay on existing...
Evolution to Enhanced Reconfigurable Optical Add/Drop Multiplexers (eROADM)
The fast adoption of business and residential broadband services is certainly igniting service providers' and cable operators' momentum. However, their deployment requires the implementation of emerging technologies (such as broadband...
