Photonic Network Technology: Ultrafast 160 Gb/s-based Transmission Experiment on JGNⅡ

摘要

We have been investigating basic technology to establish a Peta-bit/s class photonic network, such as ultrafast photonic processing, novel modulation/demodulation format and ultrafast transmission technology. We would like to report our recent research works including collaborative work with private company using JGNⅡ optical test bed to curve the expansion of the foot print and electrical consumption power in network nodes and to release network management by lowering required the wavelength number against endlessly growing demand of internet traffic.
