COst-effective COhereNt Ultra-dense-WDM-PON for lambda-To-the-user access

10th Concertation Meeting, October 2012

• STREP 318515, ICT Objectives 1.1 a) b) • 1st-Nov + 36 months• Coordinator:

– SSupSA (Ernesto Ciaramella)– Vice-coordinator: UPC (Josep Prat)

• GOAL: efficient lTTH– 1G-to-the-Home + 10G-to-the-Antenna– By: ultra-dense WDM-PON, by:

• Statistical WDM multiplexing• Simplified coherent transmission

Key Questions• What relevant problems to future networks will the project solve?

– BANDWIDTH LIMITATION TO THE HOME&ANTENNA– OPTICAL INFRASTRUCTURE SATURATION

• What makes the project solution unique compared to alternative solutions? – MAXIMUM USE OF THE OPTICAL SPECTRUM– MINIMUM USE OF THE ELECTRICAL SPECTRUM

╚► FOR ENERGY EFFICIENCY

• What are the business and industrial opportunities for the project solution?– ADVANCED UD-WDM TRANSCEIVERS FOR NG-PON– ADVANCED OPTICAL SIGNAL DIGITAL PROCESSING– 1G END-TO-END NETWORKING

• What are the key performance indicators set to measure the project success?– SUSCESFULL DEMO OF COST&ENERGY EFFICIENT COHERENT

• 1G to 1000 users• 10G to n antennas
