1. COst-effective COhereNt Ultra-dense-WDM-PON for lambda-To-the-user access 10 th 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 TTH –1G-to-the-Home + 10G-to-the-Antenna –By: ultra-dense WDM-PON, by: Statistical WDM multiplexing Simplified coherent transmission

2. 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 10 th Concertation Meeting, October 2012
