Cisco: Private Line Emulation vs OTN in Transport Networks

Session Description:

OTN is an established networking technology while PLE is new. Cisco is working with industry standards groups and is proposing to leverage the success of TDM2IP to introduce PLE.

This panel will discuss multiple points of view and the benefits of deploying PLE or OTN.  Does it make sense to move private line and wavelength services to the IP layer in a way that it acts like a standard optical network? What are the long-term network benefits of PLE vs OTN?

   Demonstration of Composable-ML-Assisted Autonomous Lightpath Configuration Over a Field-Deployed SDM Network With 7-Core Fibers

   Presenter: Hanyu Gao, Sun Yat-sen University, China

    Presentation Details   Paper

   This paper demonstrates the first field trial of autonomous lightpath configuration over an SDM network using 7-core fibers. With a composable-ML-based configuration algorithm, ~10-second lightpath provisioning and automated failover are achieved while desirable QoT is secured.Authors: Hanyu Gao, Sun Yat-sen University / Xiaoliang Chen, Sun Yat-sen University / Wenbang Zheng, Sun Yat-sen University / Chen Yingyu, Sun Yat-sen University / Yongguang Xiao, Sun Yat-sen University / Zhaohui Li, Sun Yat-sen University

   Colorless and Directionless ROADM for Meshed Coupled-Core Multicore Fiber Networks

   Presenter: Ruben Luis, NICT, Japan

    Presentation Details   Paper

   We demonstrate the first meshed spatial-super-channel switching SDM network using field-deployed coupled-core multicore fibers with a 3 line-side, colorless, directionless ROADM. We evaluate 19 network scenarios including add&drop, bypass and grooming with 2 Tb/s granularity.Authors: Ruben Luis, NICT / Gaimmarco Di Sciullo, University of L'Aquila / Georg Rademacher, NICT / Benjamin Puttnam, NICT / Andrea Marotta, University of L'Aquila / Robert Emmerich, Fraunhofer Institute for Telecommunications / Nicolas Braig-Christophersen, Fraunhofer Institute for Telecommunications / Ralf Stolte, Finisar Australia / Fabio Graziosi, University of L'Aquila / Antonio Mecozzi, University of L'Aquila / Colja Schubert, Fraunhofer Institute for Telecommunications / Tetsuya Hayashi, Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd. / Takuji Nagashima, Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd. / Cristian Antonelli, University of L'Aquila / Hideaki Furukawa, NICT

   Photonics-Assisted 320 GHz THz-Band 50 Gbit/s Signal Outdoor Wireless Communication Over 850 Meters

   Presenter: Weiping Li, Fudan university, China

    Presentation Details   Paper

   We have experimentally demonstrated, for the first time, a single-channel 50 Gbit/s net rate THz-band transmission over an 850 m wireless link, which also creates the longest wireless distance and largest distance-rate product for a photonic THz-wireless transmission in the world.Authors: Weiping Li, Fudan university / Jianjun Yu, Fudan university / Bowen Zhu, Fudan university / Jiao Zhang, Purple Mountain Laboratories / Min Zhu, Purple Mountain Laboratories / Feng Zhao, Xi’an University of Posts and Telecommunications / Tangyao Xie, Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications / KAIHUI WANG, Fudan university / Yi Wei, Fudan university / Xiongwei Yang, Fudan university / Bingchang Hua, Purple Mountain Laboratories / Mingzheng Lei, Purple Mountain Laboratories / Yuancheng Cai, Purple Mountain Laboratories / Wen Zhou, Fudan university / Jianguo Yu, Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications

   203.6Tb/s CPRI-Equivalent Rate 1024-QAM DA-RoF Fronthaul With Comb-Based WDM and SDM Superchannel

   Presenter: Yixiao Zhu, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China

    Presentation Details   Paper

   We demonstrate 203.6Tb/s CPRI-equivalent-rate 1024-QAM self-homodyne fronthaul using digital-analog radio-over-fiber and comb-based SDM and WDM superchannel from a single laser source. We further present new records from 309.4Tb/s CPRI-equivalent-rate with 256-QAM to 81.6Tb/s with 1048576-QAM.Authors: Yixiao Zhu, Shanghai Jiao Tong University / Chenbo Zhang, Peking University / Jingjing Lin, Peking University / Yicheng Xu, Shanghai Jiao Tong University / Qunbi Zhuge, Shanghai Jiao Tong University / Weiwei Hu, Peking University / Zhangyuan Chen, Peking University / Weisheng Hu, Shanghai Jiao Tong University / Xiaopeng Xie, Peking University
