Welcome Address

ECOC is the largest conference on optical communication in Europe. It is one of the most respected and long-standing events of its kind in the world, only second to the world’s largest, the yearly Optical Fiber Conference in the USA. ECOC 2012, from 16 to 21 Sep. 2012 in Amsterdam, will be the 38th edition, which indicates its stability and attractiveness as one of the world’s major events in this field as a prime forum for new developments and results in optical communication techniques, systems and networks.

ECOC travels around Europe from year to year and now returns to Amsterdam again. It was held here for the first time in 1979, and subsequently in 1990 and 2001. Amsterdam thus has become the city that has hosted ECOC most frequently… and so ECOC is “coming home” in 2012. Reflecting the increasing interest in the field of optical communication both in research and engineering, the event has grown considerably since 1979, both in size and importance. It successfully withstood the internet-bubble and the crisis in the telecommunication industry. ECOC 2001 in Amsterdam was the largest ever with respect to participants and size of the exhibition. ECOC 2011 in Geneva was a great success again, and ECOC 2012 will continue this spirit with an impressive number of conference papers and exhibitor booths from all over the world. About 50% of the conference delegates are from Europe, 30% come from Asia/Pacific and 20 % from North America: ECOC is thus a truly global conference.

The latest advances in optical communication technologies will be reported, from fibers, components and systems up to networks. ECOC should not be missed by anyone interested in optical communication, such as researchers, product engineers, sales managers and telecommunication market developers. Leading-edge technical progress will be reported in diligently selected papers in a blend of keynote addresses, invited and regularly contributed papers, tutorial papers, and special symposia that put a specific theme in focus. The Workshops on Sunday Sep. 16 offer ample opportunities for interaction on the hottest research topics. Moreover, as has occurred every two years since 2006, within ECOC2012 there will be CLEO Focus sessions to report the latest results from basic research in optical communication technologies.

This year’s programme features a plenary session on Monday morning (Sept. 17th) with talks by Dr. Philippe Keryer, President Networks Group, Alcatel-Lucent, France, Mr. Ruchir Rodrigues, Corporate Vice President – Product Strategy and Development, Verizon, U.S.A,, Prof. Yasuhiko Arakawa, Director of Nanoelectronics Research Center, University of Tokyo, Japan, and Prof. Erik Huizer, Director Technology, SURFnet, The Netherlands.

The bulk of the conference program focuses on invited and contributed technical papers. These have been carefully selected for oral or poster presentation by an outstanding technical program committee, comprising around 100 well-known experts of the field. It is organized in 6 sub-committees: “Fibers, Fiber Devices and Amplifiers”, “Waveguides and Optoelectronic Devices”, “Subsystems and Network Elements for Optical Networks”, “Transmission Systems”, “Backbone and Core Networks”, and “Access Networks and LANs”.

Two special symposia are organized on two hot topics in the field. These symposia are bringing together a list of well-respected speakers and will cover "Indoor optical networks - a promising way to a converged service delivery" (Monday 17 Sep.) and "Energy Consumption of the Internet" (Wednesday 19 Sep.).

You may also take the opportunity to visit the lively city of Amsterdam, with its world-famous 200+ kilometers of small canals in the old city part, its renowned museums with paintings of the old Dutch masters (Rembrandt, Van Gogh and other renowned artists), its numerous international restaurants, cosy pubs, and so on. You may consider a sightseeing tour in the immediate surroundings, to visit typical Dutch windmills, cheese markets, traditional fishermen villages, etc.

The ECOC 2012 organization has prepared an exciting event, supplementing the technical program with the traditional social events that include a “Dutch Evening” on Monday Sep. 17, and on Wednesday Sep. 19 a Gala dinner and cruise on board of the "Saloon Steamer The Prins van Oranje" which originates from early last century and wallows in the wealth and grandeur with which we associate private clubs of these times.

We look forward to welcoming you to Amsterdam for a very exciting experience!!

WS1: Plasmonics for Optical Interconnects: Challenges and Opportunities

Chairs:Alain Dereux, Institute Carnot de Bourgogne, University of Burgundy, France - Contact: [email protected] Leuthold, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany - Contact: [email protected] Apostolopoulos, National Technical University of Athens, Greece - Contact: [email protected]

Abstract

Plasmonics is emerging as a promising technology platform towards enabling the deployment of small-footprint and low-energy integrated circuitry, holding a great promise for chip-scale and high integration density optical interconnects. This new discipline relies on the propagation of electromagnetic waves along a metal-dielectric interface, yielding in this way strong mode confinement factors while seamlessly interfacing photonics and electronics. Its credentials to drive next-generation optical interconnects into new performance metrics have led to intense research during the last years for bringing plasmonics from proof-of-principle demonstrations into system-qualified device development concepts.

Motivated by the recent evolutions in the field of plasmonics for optical interconnect applications, this workshop aims to collect the latest achievements across all relevant concepts, fabrication techniques, waveguide technologies, components, devices and systems that could potentially be utilized in the ar-eas of datacom and computercom. Besides introducing this exciting topic to the ECOC community, this Workshop aims to address the practical application perspectives of this technology as well as the remaining challenges to be tackled on the way to their application in next-generation interconnects.

In a nutshell, this workshop covers the following topics:

• Plasmonic technology in optical interconnection

• Plasmonics & Silicon Photonics

• CMOS compatible plasmonic structures

• Plasmonic active elements and systems (detectors, switches, modulators)

• Plasmonic waveguides

• Plasmonic amplification

The workshop is an initiative of the EU FP7 project SOFI: Silicon-Organic hybrid Fabrication platform for Integrated circuits.

Silicon photonics is one of the most promising technologies for large-scale photonic integration. Pow-ered by state-of-the-art CMOS manufacturing technology and a high index contrast, compact and com-plex passive circuits are now possible. However, silicon is far from the best material for active optical elements, such as modulators, switches, detectors, and especially light sources. Therefore, there is a strong drive to hybridize the silicon platform with novel materials, without compromising its advantages. In this workshop, we will discuss the many different materials and integration approaches for a variety of on-chip optical functions. However, this is often not straightforward, as the introduction of novel material poses significant technical challenges in terms of process integration, and jeopardizes CMOS compat-ibility, which is one of the strong assets of silicon photonics. In this workshop, the speakers will approach the challenge of Silicon hybrid photonics from various angles.

• Choice of materials: For improved optical performance, there is a wealth of materials on hand: III-V semiconductors, polymers, magneto-optic materials, and a wide range of nano-scale materials and composites.

• Integration technologies: Integrating these different materials on a silicon platform can be done in various ways. Some seemingly straightforward such as spin-coating, some quite challenging, such as hetero-epitaxy. Different technologies are being discussed.

• Optical functionality: Different materials can be used for different optical functions: light sources need different materials than optical isolators or electro-optic modulators. Choosing the right material for each function is quite a challenge

And these functions, integration schemes and materials have to come together in a single integration flow, with a technological route towards manufacturing in a CMOS compatible process flow, which puts its own boundaries in terms contamination, temperature budgets and yield.

Abstract

Software-defined cognitive radio is a system wherein the basic functionalities, such as filtering, ampli-fication, modulation, detection, are software implemented and are readily reconfigurable. Analogously, in a software-defined photonic system, various functionalities, such as dispersion compensation, band-width allocation, modulation format, constellation size, channel and phase estimation, are handed over to electronic digital signal processing (DSP) and may be flexibly modified. This workshop brings together leading experts from research and industry for discussing new, innovative and upcoming flexible high-speed DSP-based photonic subsystems, amenable to parametric and structural adaptation according to dynamically varying network capacity, transmission reach and network conditions, making efficient use of time-varying transmission resources.

Abstract

Access networks are expected to be subject to significant changes in the not-to-distant future. Ma-jor trends observed in telecommunication networks are an evolution from service-specific networks – “stovepipes” per service – towards networks with a universal layered architecture, a development towards fibre to the home (FTTH) access networks as well as the close interaction of mobile radio net-works with fixed networks. Those trends are expected to result in a change of the networking paradigm requiring a converged next generation access network that allows for a network re-configuration with the overall target of a cost-minimized broadband service delivery.

Future access networks likely will be very different from conventional telephone access networks which rely – in transmission performance and also in their structure – on the characteristics of copper wires: In particular the physical characteristics of optical fibres – low attenuation and high bandwidth – allow for large areas to be served from a single access network node enabling network node consolidation and thus savings of operational expenditures are expected. Furthermore, the convergence of fixed and mobile networks places additional interactions and requirements.

This workshop will provide insights in the main trends in optical access networks, also including fixed-wireless and fibre-copper convergence aspects. From architecture, systems and technology point of view the workshop will be devoted to next generation access networks with emphasis on the longer-term topics. Technical and economical drivers for access network evolution will be discussed: Future evolution scenarios will be elaborated and possible research directions and future access network paradigms will be outlined, motivated and discussed by expert speakers from industry, standardization and academia.

WS5: Flexible Cognitive Optical Networks

Chairs:Idelfonso Tafur Monroy, DTU Fotonik, Technical University of Denmark, Denmark - Contact: [email protected] Tomkos, Athens Information Technology, Greece - Contact: [email protected]

Abstract

Flexgrid link components and elastic bit rate transceivers are a very hot topic now and for the few past years we could witness their development from merely concepts towards successful commercialization.

However, the deployment in an optical network infrastructure is years ahead. One of the limiting factors is the fact that currently deployed control planes are already very complex and expensive to operate and manage and adding more degrees of freedom will make this situation even worse. On the other hand, in order to gain any benefit from the flexible-elastic implementation of the physical plane, the control plane has to be capable.

One of the possible answers is the introduction of cognition into the control plane as well. Applied to optical networking, it is a relatively novel concept reimplemented from the cognitive radio scenario. A cognitive control plane is used to control flexible elastic optical transceivers and components with the view to enable efficient resource utilization in flexible networking, reduce energy consumption and foot-print, reduce the control plane burden by enabling semi- or fully autonomous control plane operation. Cognition in the control plane however, has to be aided by a wide array of cognition-enabling techniques implemented starting from the physical layer up to the application layer.

This workshop will assess the current status of cognition as a technique supporting flexible optical net-working. Speakers include leading experts from academia and industry, representing Europe, Americas and Asia. The workshop will present latest development but also point out and discusses challenges in realizing future optical networks with dynamic resource allocation and cognitive control.

WS6: Mid IR Photonics: Prospects and Challenges

Abstract

The largely unexplored mid-infrared area of the spectrum offers some important benefits in areas that include chemical and biological sensing (e.g. either for environmental monitoring or for bio-agent and medical sensing), spectroscopy and indeed (free-space) communications. However, there are also sev-eral important challenges associated with this region of the spectrum. For example, semiconductor di-ode laser technology, the use of which is so widespread in conventional applications in the near-infrared, does not scale well to longer wavelengths. Detection of the electromagnetic radiation in the mid-infrared proves even more challenging, and often necessitates the use of bulky devices that need to be cooled to low temperatures. On the other hand, the mid-infrared seems better suited for emerging technologies, such as silicon photonics, since issues associated with two-photon absorption cease to be a problem any more, whereas electro-optic effects become more efficient. In addition, the larger wavelength di-mensions imply that the fabrication of nanophotonic devices also becomes somewhat less challenging.

This workshop intends to explore some of the more recent technological advances that have been achieved in mid-infrared photonics. The workshop is organized in three sessions. The first two sessions emphasize on mid-infrared devices and applications, respectively. The third session is an overview of some current collaborative research programmes that take place within the European Union, and which develop innovative sensing solutions in the mid-infrared. Attendees will have the opportunity to explore the state-of-the-art in photonics in this wavelength region and witness some of the challenges that re-search will have to address in the coming years.

Abstract

The performance of computers systems increases with a factor 1000 every 10 years, for. This increase in performance is driven by an increase in parallelism. Currently, data centers (DCs) and high perfor-mance computers (HPCs) are built out of 100.000s of servers operating in parallel. According to Am-dahl’s balanced system law in an ideal parallel system, for each floating point operation per second in performance one byte/s IO bandwidth is required. IBM envisions that performance of a single server is going to reach 10 Teraflop by 2020, leading to an aggregated exabyte/s data transport in HPCs and DCs. The trend of doubling the bandwidth requirements every 18 months is also a major concern for network operators and system vendors. They are required to build communication infrastructure that can sift through Terabits per second of incoming and outgoing traffic while placing all relevant network interfaces (such as pluggable transceivers and connectors) on the front panels of their line-cards, a task which is often a major engineering constraint on final system design. Academia, industrial research labs and commercial entities have been putting extensive efforts into finding more power efficient and space effi-cient solutions for increasing the bandwidth-density of these optical interfaces in the past 10 years (since the introduction of the first SFPs in 2001). While much progress has been made, it is clear that scaling pluggable transceivers to hundreds and thousands of Gbit/sec is not simply a case of putting more of the same devices in parallel. In this workshop we have brought together leading speakers from industry and academia to shed light on the challenges in packaging more Gb/sec into ever smaller modules.

WS10: Optical Components and Characterization Requirements for SDM Networks

Abstract

Progress in optical communication systems over the past few decades has been profound. As a conse-quence of successive breakthroughs, both in terms of photonic and more recently digital signal process-ing technologies, the latest laboratory transmission experiments are rapidly closing in on fundamental transmission capacity limits as dictated by optical nonlinearity, amplifier bandwidth and fundamental information theory. At the same time, traffic on the world’s optical communication networks is increasing by ~40% year-on-year, leading to fears of a potential capacity crunch in the next decade or so without radical innovation at the physical layer. The only remaining physical dimension left to be exploited to significantly increase the data capacity of a single fiber is space. Current commercial technologies ex-ploit just two polarization modes in a single-mode fiber core; however multiple cores, or multiple modes within the same core, or a combination of both, could in principle be used as separate independent information channels - the general approach being referred to as Space Division Multiplexing (SDM). Unfortunately, whilst conceptually simple, SDM is extremely challenging in practice, requiring the devel-opment of new concepts, transmission fibers and associated optical components, as well as new digital signal processing strategies, algorithms and circuitry. Major programs on SDM have been launched across the globe in the past 2-3 years and the progress has been extremely rapid. To date attention has focused mostly on headline transmission results, and there have been numerous symposia and work-shops focusing primarily on underlying concepts, fibre design or overall system achievements. However, underpinning this progress is a vast array of work on the critical component technologies required, in-cluding multiplexing and demultiplexing devices, optical amplifiers, as well as the associated device and fiber characterization techniques which can become extremely challenging in a multipath environment. The development of reliable, manufacturable and scalable components to the required specifications is obviously a pre-requisite for commercial deployment of SDM systems. However, to date, such aspects have yet to receive much consideration within the broader communications community. This Workshop, co-organised and sponsored by EU FP7 project MODEGAP and the EXAT program, Japan, will re-view and discuss the optical component requirements and specifications emerging from the latest SDM transmission experiments – considering both multi-mode and multi-core based approaches. It will also address the associated need for new measurement techniques and procedures as required to quantify and specify device and subsystem performance. In particular we will consider topics such as channel Mux/Demux, optical isolation and amplification, and routes to device integration and reduction of the system complexity, as well as approaches to measure critical parameters such as channel extinction ratios, discrete and distributed mode couplings, modal amplifier gain and noise figure, and modal loss, dispersion and nonlinearity.

Abstract

FTTH represents a big step from current copper-based access technologies not only in terms of avail-able bandwidth, but also because it will be accompanied by a paradigm shift (driven in great part by the need to share the conspicuous investment cost) from service-dedicated networks to open, multilayer networks where all services will be delivered over one access network.

In the open access business model, competing service providers get end-user access through a single network, operated by an independent network provider. This leads to increased freedom of choice for the end users, service innovation, reduced environmental impact, as well as to an improved business case for deployment and operation. However, a number of challenges still remains to be met, like the lack of standardization of interfaces, lack of efficient network-virtualisation mechanisms, unclear service and network provider roles towards the end-user, proliferation of devices at the end user premises, and unclear regulation. This workshop will bring up those challenges and will try to collect possible answers and solution proposals, by confronting the viewpoints of incumbent and alternative network operators, service and application providers, vendors, researchers and regulators.

WS12: Control Plane Architectures for New Optical Switching Technologies Enabling Flexibility in Time, Frequency and Space Domains

Chairs:Juan Pedro Fernández-Palacios, Telefonica I+D, Spain - Contact: [email protected]

Abstract

The research in network control planes is currently focused on consolidating the control procedures ad-opted for the underlying optical infrastructure, and on extending a generalized (single-instance) control approach to include more and more technologies. Both objectives involve different architecture aspects with different degrees of maturity: they can range from more evolutive extensions to the control plane protocols when there is the need to incorporate new advances in optical data plane technologies (such as new photonic subwavelength or grid-less technologies), and can scale up to more extreme and demanding interactions between the control plane and the network service layer (e.g. the cloud) for controlling new types of enhanced connectivity services (i.e. beyond the point-to-point). Additionally, since optical networks represent the core substrate responsible for inter-carrier data transport, other key research topics addressed in this area include possibly standardized multicarrier and multivendor control solutions to make more effective and open (i.e. vendor-independent) the current implementa-tions. Some of the mainstreams in the current control plane evolution to be covered in the workshop are:

• Integrated control plane architectures for hybrid Optical Packet and circuit switched networks provid-ing both high-speed, inexpensive services and deterministic-delay, low data-loss services according to the users’ usage scenario

• Decoupling of the optical transport from the control plane. The key goal is to decouple the control plane implementation and procedures from equipments, with the main rationale of “moving intel-ligence out of the box”, and making it vendor-independent. One of the potential enablers in this research area is the popular OpenFlow protocol

• New control plane architectures for Flexgrid Networks. The migration from current static DWDM net-works towards elastic optical networks will significantly increase backbone capacity and scalability and enable new elastic bandwidth services. Control plane architectures should be updated in order to enable a smooth migration process

• GMPLS extensions for subwavelengths. Sub-wavelengths refer to the shared utilization of a single wavelength by optical bursts, packets, slots. Considering the evolution, progress and variety of sub-wavelength optical networks it is important to address standardization aspects that would specify a transport-agnostic GMPLS control plane able to control and provision different sub-wavelength optical transport networks on a generic way.

• Resource Control and Service Management architectures for seamless datacenter and network in-tegration. The IT and Telco convergence mainly deals with dynamic flexible behaviour of network infrastructures and the integration of their operation and management processes with the IT infra-structures systems and services

Larry Coldren; University of California, Santa Barbara, UCSB, USA

Abstract

Efforts to integrate numerous photonic components on a single chip have led to significant advancements over the past few years. Not only has the size, weight and power dissipation of transmitter and receiver sub-systems improved, but now photonic integration is demonstrating truly new capabilities, enabling functionalities not possible with discrete implementations. Also, sub-sytem perfor-mance and cost are proving to be competitive, even where discrete implementations are possible.

Jeremy O’Brien; University of Bristol, UK.

Abstract

Quantum information science promises profoundly disruptive infor-mation and communication technologies. Photons are ideal carriers of quantum information: Their low noise, high speed transmission, and ease of manipulation at the single photon level make them indispensable for quantum communication, which offers security based on the laws of physics, quantum metrology, which promises the ultimate precision measurements, and quantum information processing, which promises exponentially greater computational power for particular tasks. Recently integrated optical devices have been applied to these technologies. We give an overview of quan-tum technologies and progress towards their realisation in integrat-ed optics.

Meint Smit; Technical University Eindhoven, Netherlands

Abstract

Photonic Integration has a great potential for manufacturing com-plex subsystems in a compact and cost-effective way. Entry costs for developing an integrated chip are high, however, which has restricted the application of Photonic ICs. Recent developments towards a generic foundry model in photonic integration lead to a dramatic cost reduction by using standardized high-performance in-tegration processes in combination with a component library with a broad range of building blocks. It lead also to a reduction of the R&D time. The strongly reduced entry costs will bring Photonic ICs within reach for many SMEs in telecom and other applications.

Biography

Meint K. Smit graduated in Electrical Engineering in 1974 and re-ceived his Ph.D. in 1991, both with honours. He started research in Integrated Optics in 1981. He invented the Arrayed Waveguide Grating, for which he received a LEOS Technical Achievement award in 1997 and he was closely involved in the development of the MMI-coupler.

We.3.G.1 Fiber Fuse - From a Curious Effect to a Critical Issue

Rodney Tucker; University of Melbourne, Australia

Abstract

This tutorial provides an overview of some key parameters that influence energy consumption in cloud computing and optical net-working. We present simple energy models of optical and wireless communications networks and cloud computing, and show how en-ergy consumption depends on the underlying equipment, the net-work architecture, and the traffic carried by the network. We use these energy models to quantify energy efficiency of the network and identify trends in energy-efficient networking. Finally, we high-light some strategies for improving energy efficiency in future net-works, including device design, optical bypass, and optimizing the location of data centres and caches in the network.

Th.2.G.1 Analytical Modeling of Non-Linear Propagation in Coherent Systems

Pierluigi Poggiolini; Politecnico di Torino, Italy

Abstract

Recently, various analytical models for non-linear propagation in uncompensated coherent systems have been proposed. This tuto-rial focuses on several related key questions, such as: what are the differences among such models? Can they be unified? Are they ac-curate? According to models, how does NLI (non-linear interference noise) accumulate over optical bandwidth and distance? How many channels are enough to generate most or all the NLI in a system? What can be done to mitigate, either optically or electronically, the impact of NLI? What is, then, the ultimate fiber capacity? Are there simple design rules which can be derived through the model? What is their impact on the design and management of flexible wave-length-routed networks?

Biography

Mo.1/2.G Symposium on Indoor Optical Networks - A Promising Way to a Converged Service Delivery

Chairs:Ton Koonen, COBRA - TU Eindhoven, Netherlands – Contact: [email protected] Popov, ACREO, Sweden – Contact (Mikhail Popov, [email protected])

Abstract

Today’s in-door communication networks are provisioning a wide range of services to the user, via a variety of media. Cat-5 (and successors)-based networks and wireless LANs are laid out origi-nally for data services, coaxial cable networks for video entertain-ment, twisted pair for voice and fax telephony, and some specific cabling may be installed for home automation services. As more and more data-intensive applications are emerging in the home, and devices not only need to communicate with the outside world, but increasingly also with each other, the capacity demands on the indoor network often surpass those on the (fibre-to-the-home) ac-cess line. Moreover, there is a trend towards IP-based service pro-visioning, leading to convergence of services at the IP layer. Apart from superior transmission properties, and also from the installation and future-prooofness point of view, optical fibre as the universal medium for an indoor network carrying the converged set of ser-vices may offer a number of attractive advantages.

W.1/2.G Symposium on Energy Consumption of the Internet

Chairs:Tom Pearsall, European Photonics Industry Consortium (EPIC), France - Contact: [email protected] Lannoo, Ghent University – IBBT, Belgium - Contact: [email protected] Pickavet, Ghent University – IBBT, Belgium - Contact: [email protected]

Abstract

This symposium will analyze the relationship between the Internet and its energy requirements now and in the coming decade. As the Internet is growing considerably (both in terms of device numbers and bandwidth requirements) year by year, it is crucial to investigate how sustainable this future evolution will be. Are we heading for a clash of novel networks and services with limited energy resources, or will both coexist without any problems? Renowned speakers from both energy and ICT background will present their view on this matter. Within the telecommunication sector, the different view-points of operators, vendors and academia will be presented. At the end, a panel discussion amongst the various speakers and the audience will compare the different viewpoints and lead to overall conclusions.

Mo.1.G.2 HOME NETWORKS: THE GREAT UNKNOWN FOR THE SERVICE PROVIDERFrank den Hartog; TNO Telecom, the NetherlandsAs new broadband access networks drive the development of new cross-sectoral services, they also lead to home networks increasing in size, scale, and heterogeneity. This comes at the cost of growing managerial complexity, weakening the service providers’ business case. An overview will be presented of the technical solution space which includes new network- and service architectures, network performance optimization, and remote-management tools. Also standardization strategies will be discussed, especially regarding the Home Gateway Initiative (HGI), an international operator-led consortium committed to shaping how broadband services are delivered to the home.

Mo.1.G.3HOW TO MEET THE SERVICE NEEDS OF THE END USER? Gerlas van den Hoven; Genexis, The NetherlandsBroadband services at fiber-speeds go well beyond today’s triple play. There will not be a single killer application; fiber enables the full combination of next-generation applications such as e-health, teleworking, smart home, gaming, interactive television, and more. The challenge is to provide user-friendly access to these services. This presentation will discuss how FTTH networking technologies such as Gigabit Point-to-Point, GPON, and beyond, can provide the broadband service needs of tomorrow’s end-user.

Mo.1.G.4 THE FUTURE OF HOME NETWORKINGAnthony Ng’oma, Hejie Yang, Rich Wagner; Corning Incorporated, USAThe proliferation of smart consumer devices and of the emerging high-bandwidth user applications has a strong impact on the requirements put on in-home networks. After performance evaluation of state-of-the-art home networking technologies used today, we have observed a significant gap between the current network performance and user requirements. In this talk, we will discuss technical challenges and key components of potential solutions that the industry should develop in order meet the desired home networking performance requirements.

Mo.1.G.5 MULTI-FORMAT HOME NETWORKS USING SILICA FIBRESPh. Guignard, J. Guillory, Ph. Chanclou, A. Pizzinat, O. Bouffant, N. Evanno, J. Etrillard, B. Charbonnier, S. Gosselin, L. Guillo, F. Richard; Orange Labs, France Two major challenges will drive the search for an efficient home network solution. The first one is to increase the bit rate to meet the requirements related to high interactivity and to the richness of the contents. The second one is to take into account the great heterogeneity of the signals to be delivered, the home network being the convergence point of many competing worlds, such as computer, telecommunication, and consumer electronics. To reach the performances required in terms of capacity and heterogeneity, silica fibre will be preferred for its low attenuation and high bandwidth. Two main architectures have been proposed for this home network. The first one is based on an active star centered on a switch able to process different types of signals. The second one is based on a passive N × N star coupler, which provides a broadcast architecture, and wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) is widely used to carry the different applications on specific wavelengths. This work, partly implemented within the European project ALPHA, will be carried on within the French collaborative project RLDO. Moreover, the French collaborative project ORIGIN supports these optical home architectures and focusses on the transmission of 60GHz radio signals.

In order to fulfill these demands, Plastic Optical Fibers (POFs) are among the most promising transmission media for in-home networks, because they can offer many advantages such as great flexibility, easy handling, and high bitrate as fast as 40Gbps which can be achieved by our graded-index technology that improved the bandwidth. The next generation home networking system can be realized by the concept of “Fiber-to-the-Display”, by connecting POFs directly to terminal devices in home. Details will be described in the presentation.

Mo.2.G.1 RECENT ACHIEVEMENTS IN POF TRANSMISSIONEduward Tangdiongga, Yan Shi, Chigo Okonkwo, Henrie van den Boom, Ton Koonen; TU Eindhoven, The NetherlandsThe potential for ‘do-it-yourself’ installation, easy maintenance, and high bending tolerance is driving the commercialization of large-core polymethylmetacrylate (PMMA) plastic optical fibers (POFs) for short-range multi-gigabit transmission capacities. Record transmission rates have been achieved, by using advanced modulation formats with simple intensity-modulation direct-detection systems with low-cost and eye-safe transceivers to enable transmission over 50-m POF links. In addition, results of transmitting high-capacity baseband signals together with wireless signals such as OFDM ultra-wide band transmitted over a single POF infrastructure are presented to highlight the key potential for POF-enabled delivery of both high-speed wired and wireless services.

Mo.2.G.2 GIGABIT SOLUTIONS ON PMMA-POF AND THE RELATED EUROPEAN STANDARDIZATIONOlaf Ziemann1, Christian-Alexander Bunge2, Roman Kruglov1, Juri Vinogradov1, Sven Loquai1, Stefan Werzinger1; 1POF Application Center, Germany; 2Deutsche Telekom Hochschule für Telekommunikation, GermanyPolymer (/Plastic) Optical Fibers can be used for data transmission at bit rates of 1 Gbps and more, as has been demonstrated in many laboratories and projects over the last years. The paper will give an overview of the different options for transmitters, fibers and modulation formats. Two different proposals for a standard Gigabit interface are under discussion in the German POF standardization group AK412.7.1. The main focus will be set on the use of LEDs as low-cost components and latest results using a new green (530 nm) LED for 1 Gbps transmission over 50 m SI-POF will be demonstrated.

Not only has the size, weight and power dissipation of transmitter and receiver sub-systems improved, but now photonic integration is demonstrating truly new capabilities, enabling functionalities not possible with discrete implementations. Also, sub-sytem performance and cost are proving to be competitive, even where discrete implementations are possible.Larry A. Coldren is the Kavli Professor of Optoelectronics at UCSB. Following his Ph.D. from Stanford, he spent 13 years at Bell Labs, and joined UCSB in 1984, where he is on the ECE and Materials faculties. At UCSB his work on multiple-section lasers led to his invention of the widely-tunable multi-element mirror laser, now used in numerous commercial products. Seminal contributions to efficient VCSELs also emerged. He co-founded both VCSEL and widely-tunable integrated transmitter companies that were successfully acquired. His group continues efforts on high-performance PICs and high-speed VCSELs. He has contributed to numerous papers, books and patents. He is a Fellow of the IEEE, OSA, and IEE, a recipient of the Tyndall and Kressel Awards, and a member of the National Academy of Engineering.

Tu.4.G.1 • 16:00 Tutorial GENERIC PHOTONIC INTEGRATION AS DRIVER FOR NEW SUBSYSTEM DEVELOPMENTSMeint Smit1; 1Technical University Eindhoven, Netherlands.Photonic Integration has a great potential for manufacturing complex subsystems in a compact and cost-effective way. Entry costs for developing an integrated chip are high, however, which has restricted the application of Photonic ICs. Recent developments towards a generic foundry model in photonic integration lead to a dramatic cost reduction by using standardized high-performance integration processes in combination with a component library with a broad range of building blocks. It lead also to a reduction of the R&D time. The strongly reduced entry costs will bring Photonic ICs within reach for many SMEs in telecom and other applications.Meint K. Smit graduated in Electrical Engineering in 1974 and received his Ph.D. in 1991, both with honours. He started research in Integrated Optics in 1981. He invented the Arrayed Waveguide Grating, for which he received a LEOS Technical Achievement award in 1997 and he was closely involved in the development of the MMI-coupler. Since 2000 he is the leader of the Photonic Integration group at the COBRA Research Institute of TU Eindhoven.

Th.1.E.1 • 09:00 Invited ULTRAFAST OPTICAL SIGNAL PROCESSING IN SLOW LIGHT PHOTONIC CRYSTAL WAVEGUIDESThomas Krauss1; 1University Of St-Andrews, United Kingdom.Photonic crystyal waveguides operating in the slow light regime offer a wide range of opportunities for optical signal processing based on the fact that they offer resonant enhancement of light-matter interaction combined with sizeable bandwidth (5-15 nm typ. at 1550 nm) based on the unique ability to engineer their dispersive properties. These opportunities can be categorised along three different lines, namely a) ultracompact optical modulators/switches, b) enhanced nonlinear interaction and c) optical buffers and delays. Regarding modulators, it is now possible to design devices with similar actuation energy/bit as in comparable microrings, yet with 1-2 orders of magnitude larger bandwidth. Regarding nonlinear interaction, we have shown that the efficiency of third harmonic generation and four wave mixing scales as the third or fourth power of the slowdown factor, respectively, and that surprising conversion efficiencies can be achievd on very short lengthscales. Finally, we highlight recent developments in tunable optical delay, especially the ability to tune the delay at the bit-level and on picosecond timescales.

Andrekson1; 1Photonics Laboratory, Department of Microtechnology and Nanoscience, Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden.We characterize a phase-sensitive amplifier (PSA) after an 80km fiber span, carrying a single DQPSK channel in the nonlinear transmission regime. The system penalty with increasing intra-channel nonlinear distortion is similar for EDFA and PSA based systems, indicating that the PSA sensitivity advantage may remain with nonlinear transmission.

Th.2.G.1 • 11:00 Tutorial ANALYTICAL MODELING OF NON-LINEAR PROPAGATION IN COHERENT SYSTEMSPierluigi Poggiolini1; 1Dipartimento di Elettronica e Telecomunicazioni, Politecnico di Torino, Italy.Recently, various analytical models for non-linear propagation in uncompensated coherent systems have been proposed. This tutorial focuses on several related key questions, such as: what are the differences among such models? Can they be unified? Are they accurate? According to models, how does NLI (non-linear interference noise) accumulate over optical bandwidth and distance? How many channels are enough to generate most or all the NLI in a system? What can be done to mitigate, either optically or electronically, the impact of NLI? What is, then, the ultimate fiber capacity? Are there simple design rules which can be derived through the model? What is their impact on the design and management of flexible wavelength-routed networks?He received his MS and PhD from Politecnico di Torino, Italy. From 1990 to 1995 he was a visiting scholar and a post-doc at Stanford University. He is currently a full professor at Politecnico di Torino. Since 2000 he has been the coordinator of the OptCom group (www.optcom.polito.it). From 2006 to 2010 he was involved in several EU-funded projects: e-Photon/ONe, Nobel II, BONE and Euro-FOS.

It is therefore recommended to either ask before you order or ensure you have a sufficient amount in cash to cover the bill. Most shops and restaurants do not accept € 200 and € 500 notes.

Tipping Service is always included. It is however customary to tip in restaurants, bars and when paying for taxis. As a general rule tipping between 5 - 10% is acceptable.

Shopping Shops are open from Monday to Saturday, from 09.00 until 18.00 hrs (Saturdays until 17.00 hrs and Thursday evenings until 21.00 hrs).

Wednesday 19 September 2012 19:00 – 23:00 Conference Dinner and cruise on the "Saloon Steamer Prins van Oranje"

Boarding time 19:00 - don’t be late - the ship won’t wait! (boat will return at approx 23:00) You cannot come to The Netherlands and Amsterdam without getting on the water! Water is everywhere and the choice for a conference dinner on a boat is obvious. The allure of a "Saloon Steamer The Prins van Oranje" originates from early last century and wallows in the wealth and grandeur with which we associate private clubs of these times. This is mainly due to the fine wood paneling, elegant Art Deco lights, and the comfortable club armchairs. In the exclusive and intimate surroundings of the Prins van Oranje, business and personal relations flourished like nowhere else. The Prins van Oranje is a boat with allure that distinguishes itself in many ways.

Location: De Ruijterkade, Steiger 17 A (300 m from of the Central Railway Station)
