64-GBd DP-Bipolar-8ASK Transmission Over 120 km SSMF Employing a Monolithically Integrated Driver and MZM in 0.25-μm SiGe BiCMOS Technology

We demonstrate 64-GBd signal generation up to bipolar-8-ASK utilizing a single MZM, monolithically integrated with segmented drivers in SiGe. Using polarization multiplexing, 300-Gb/s net data rate transmission over 120 km SSMF is shown

Demonstration of latency-aware 5G network slicing on optical metro networks

The H2020 METRO-HAUL European project has architected a latency-aware, cost-effective, agile, and programmable optical metro network. This includes the design of semidisaggregated metro nodes with compute and storage capabilities, which interface effectively with both 5G access and multi-Tbit/s elastic optical networks in the core. In this paper, we report the automated deployment of 5G services, in particular, a public safety video surveillance use case employing low-latency object detection and tracking using on-camera and on-the-edge analytics. The demonstration features flexible deployment of network slice instances, implemented in terms of European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) network function virtualization network services. We summarize the key findings in a detailed analysis of end-to-end quality of service, service setup time, and soft-failure detection time. The results show that the round-trip time over an 80 km link is under 800 mu s and the service deployment time is under 180 s. (C) 2021 Optical Society of America© 2022, IEEE.
