Error-free Dispersion-uncompensated Transmission at 20 Gb/s over SSMF using a Hybrid III-V/SOI DML with MRR Filtering
International audienceError-free 20-Gb/s directly-modulated transmission is achieved by enhancing the dispersion tolerance of a III-V/SOI DFB laser with a silicon micro-ring resonator. Low (~0.4 dB) penalty compared to back-to-back without ring is demonstrated after 5-km SSMF
COSIGN:a complete SDN enabled all-optical architecture for data centre virtualisation with time and space multiplexing
We present a Data Centre Virtualisation architecture with an SDN-controlled all-optical data plane combining OCS and TSON. Orchestration dynamically translates and provisions Virtual Data Centres requests onto the optical layer. We describe an implementation and characterisation of the data plane
