This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the advent of new series of Internet services and applications, future networks will have to go beyond basic Internet connectivity and encompass diverse services including connected sensors, smart devices, vehicles, and homes. Today's telecommunication systems are static, with pre-provisioned links requiring an expensive and time-consuming reconfiguration process. Hence, future networks need to be flexible and programmable, allowing for resources to be directed, where the demand exists, thus improving network efficiency. A cost-effective solution is to utilise the legacy fibre infrastructure more efficiently, by reducing the size of the guard bands and allowing closer optical carrier spacing, thereby increasing the overall spectral efficiency. However, such a scheme imposes stringent transmitter requirements such as frequency stability, which would not be met with the incumbent laser-array based transmitters. An attractive alternative would be to employ an optical frequency comb (OFC), which generates multiple phase correlated carriers with precise frequency separation. The reconfigurability of such a multi-carrier transmitter would enable tuning of channel spacing, number of carriers and emission wavelengths, according to the dynamic network demands. This research thesis presents the work carried out, in the physical layer, towards realising reconfigurability of an optical multi-carrier transmitter system. The work focuses on an externally injected gain-switched laser-based OFC (EI-GSL), which is a particular type of multi-carrier source. Apart from the detailed characterisation of GSL OFCs, advances to the state of the art are achieved via comb expansion, investigating new demultiplexing methods and system implementations. Firstly, two novel broadband GS-OFC generation techniques are proposed and experimentally demonstrated. Subsequently, two flexible and compact demultiplexing solutions, based on micro-ring resonators and laser based active demultiplexers are investigated. Finally, the application of a reconfigurable multi-carrier transmitter, employed in access and data centre networks, as well as analog-radio over fibre (A-RoF) distribution systems, is experimentally demonstrated.

This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Internet has become an irreplaceable aspect of our daily life. It is used every day by billions of people around the world for various functions such as business, study, and entertainment. Hence, an unabated rise in the demand for higher and faster data traffic has been experienced through the last few decades. This demand for bandwidth is further fuelled by the introduction of bandwidth intensive applications such as ultra-high-definition video streaming, real time online gaming and cloud services making the realization of higher capacity and performance optical networks a necessity. Today's telecommunication systems are static, with pre-provisioned links requiring an expensive and time-consuming reconfiguration process. The state-of-the-art approach (wavelength division multiplexing - WDM), entailing multiple lasers emitting differing wavelengths (each modulated) multiplexed together (on a 50 GHz grid), cannot meet the growing demands. Hence, future networks need to be flexible and programmable, allowing for resources to be directed, where the demand exists, thus improving network efficiency. A cost-effective solution is to utilise the legacy fibre infrastructure more efficiently by reducing the size of the guard bands and allowing closer optical carrier spacing, thereby increasing the overall spectral efficiency. However, such a scheme imposes a stringent transmitter requirement in terms of wavelength stability, noise properties and cost-efficiency, which would not be met with the incumbent laser-array based transmitters. An attractive alternative would be to employ an optical frequency comb (OFC), which generates multiple phase-correlated optical carriers with a precise frequency separation. The reconfigurability of such a multi-carrier transmitter would enable tuning of channel spacing, number of carriers and emission wavelengths, according to the dynamic network demands. This thesis focusses on the externally injected gain-switched laser-based OFC (GSL-OFC) technique. Advances to the state of the art are achieved via a detailed static and dynamic characterisation of lasers, which is then used for enhancing the comb generation process. Specifically, initial efforts are devoted to the use of different laser structures for OFC generation. This aspect is then furthered by incorporating the concept of photonic integration to reduce the cost, power consumption and footprint of the multi-carrier transmitter. Self and externally seeded photonic integrated circuits are used to generate combs that are then fully characterized to verify their employability in optical networks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rise in the number of internet connections, be it humans or machines, has led to demand for higher capacity and datarates on an individual level. This is further enhanced by the introduction of data-hungry applications that include augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), telemedicine and many more. With the ongoing increase in capacity demands from fixed-line and wireless networks, there is a drive to converge the vast bandwidth provided by optical access networks with the mobility provided by the wireless access networks to enable a range of multi-gigabit services to the end-users. Particular focus is paid to communication technologies, such as optical heterodyning and analog-radio-over fiber (ARoF), that support optical-wireless integration in a spectrally efficient and cost effective manner. Moreover, components and technologies in support of converged networks are deployed to enable high-capacity advanced modulation schemes and the use of very high frequency radio-frequency (RF) carriers. The photonic integrated circuits (PIC) will play a key role in the development of economic links as many transmitters and modulators can be integrated on a single chip. In this work I present a novel, integrable, ultra-flexible and low noise optical source that can be employed to provide millimeter wave (mmWave) frequency transmission systems for high throughput applications in combination with advanced detection techniques. The wavelength flexibility feature of this optical source permits the best use of available fiber in a reconfigurable network environment while the ability to vary the RF carrier frequencies can allow different RF standards to be used, enabling future network upgrades to higher carrier frequencies in the THz range. This work also demonstrates a true optical-wireless multi-service convergence by pairing the ultra flexible silicon photonics (SiP) based sources with an optical switch fabric; enabling the dynamic provisioning of broadband, RoF and mmWave signals solely in the optical domain. Finally, for datacenter interconnects, the utilization of low noise optical transmitters to handle multi-level signaling, like PAM-N formats, is vital. The low noise optical source is deployed to provide high bandwidth intra-datacenter interconnect capability. Through these system demonstrations, this work highlights a platform to facilitate the flexible transmission of various service types throughout a fully converged optical network.

Download or read book Optical Wireless Communications written by Murat Uysal and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-08-25 with total page 639 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on optical wireless communications (OWC), an emerging technology with huge potential for the provision of pervasive and reliable next-generation communications networks. It shows how the development of novel and efficient wireless technologies can contribute to a range of transmission links essential for the heterogeneous networks of the future to support various communications services and traffic patterns with ever-increasing demands for higher data-transfer rates. The book starts with a chapter reviewing the OWC field, which explains different sub-technologies (visible-light, ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) communications) and introduces the spectrum of application areas (indoor, vehicular, terrestrial, underwater, intersatellite, deep space, etc.). This provides readers with the necessary background information to understand the specialist material in the main body of the book, which is in four parts. The first of these deals with propagation modelling and channel characterization of OWC channels at different spectral bands and with different applications. The second starts by providing a unified information-theoretic treatment of OWC and then discusses advanced physical-layer methodologies (including, but not limited to: advanced coding, modulation diversity, cooperation and multi-carrier techniques) and the ultimate limitations imposed by practical constraints. On top of the physical layer come the upper-layer protocols and cross-layer designs that are the subject of the third part of the book. The last part of the book features a chapter-by-chapter assessment of selected OWC applications. Optical Wireless Communications is a valuable reference guide for academic researchers and practitioners concerned with the future development of the world’s communication networks. It succinctly but comprehensively presents the latest advances in the field.
