Spatial-Spectral Flexible Optical Networking: Enabling Solutions for a Simplified and Efficient SDM (INSPACE)

Start date: Feb 1, 2014, End date: Jan 31, 2017,

Over the last 40 years, network traffic has consistently grown at an exponential rate, and there is no indication this relentless trend will cease. At present, industry is hard-pressed to identify how future networks will continue to scale in capacity, energy consumption, and economic viability as present day technologies are being stretched to their limits. The nascent technology of space-domain ...

Adaptive Software Defined Terabit Transceiver \nfor Flexible Optical Networks (ASTRON)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2016,

ASTRON aims at the development of high-capacity, energy-efficient and bit-rate flexible optical transceivers capable of supporting rates from 10Gb/s to beyond 1Tb/s. The ASTRON concept is based on developing multi-functional and agile devices so as to achieve Terabit capacities on a single photonic integrated chip. ASTRON's transceiver can realize different techniques of flexible super-channel ge ...

COst-effective COhereNt Ultra-dense-WDM-PON for lambda-To-the-user access networks (COCONUT)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Feb 29, 2016,

The COCONUT proposal aims at the definition, study and realization of a new fully scalable optical access network significantly extending the network dimensions in terms of bandwidth utilization, reach and number of accommodated users. The envisioned access network evolves from the almost-commercial WDM-PON architecture to the realisation of the Ultra-Dense WDM solutions, opening the way to the "w ...

Flexible Optical Cross-connect Nodes enabling next generation flexible optical networking (FOX-C)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

Flexible optical networking is widely proposed today by major vendors and operators as the solution that offers smooth system upgradability towards Tb/s capacities and optimized use of network resources. Latest research and development efforts proposed a variety of multi-carrier signal transmission methods with significantly increased spectral efficiency, (compared to legacy WDM), allowing the tra ...

Fibre Optics-Based Intelligent MONItoring and Assessment System for Proactive Maintenance and Seismic Disaster Prevention in Reinforced COncrete Tunnel Linings (MONICO)

Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2011,

"Manny planned tunnels are in countries of high seismicity with several Km under densely populated areas requiring high safety standards. Structural sensing with remotely interrogated fibre optic deformation sensors has a large potential usage on extended structures such as tunnels where it can be the basis for condition assessment. For this, algorithms for structural health assessment of tunnels ...
