Bit Rate Control in congestion Bit Rate Down to 2Gbps Bit Rate Down to 1Gbps Bit Rate Down to 0.5Gbps Time Code Not detected Time Code Partially detected Time Code completely detected. Possible to start correlation

Packet Arrival Time Records No Congestion Under heavy congestion Many packets are stocked in memory and suddenly released in very short time. New function to pick up the suddenly released packets are now considered.

Data Flow Monitoring

L1 on-demand connection

Efficient Use of limited Resource We can enjoy long time and wide bandwidth on Saturday and Sunday!

L1 on-demand connection (1)Reservation (30minutes before observation) 1)Request to the connection time 2)Request to the bandwidth 3)Negotiation for time and bandwidth 4)Report for the time and bandwidth granted (2)Telescope Operation (3)Real time Fringe Monitoring

First Success in real time observation on L1 on-demand connection June 12, 2008 Yamaguchi 32m Tsukuba 32m X-band 2Gbps

Link Aggregation Technique Binding cheap low-bit-rate links And Getting a extremely high bit rate

Link Aggregation of multiple GbEs Foundry MLX-4 Foundry MLX-4 ADS-1000 BW=512MH ｚ （ MHz ） VOA-200 SINET3 A/D converter of Gbps sampling 10GbE Unit Hope to carry 2Gbps payload through three GbE connections To Mitaka, Tokyo Hokkaido University in Sapporo 11m Telescope in Tomakomai GbE x 3 Connections with low bit rate links in cheap cost The link aggregation test will start in this summer.

Space Light Path 光空間伝送 Town, City Observatory Trunk Communication Line Laser Beam Tracking Mirror developed 10-Gbps, 10-km connection is a target.

Compact Opt TX/RX system

Conclusions Efficient Use of Communication Line –shared use of 10GbE line successfully demonstrated in the test between Kashima- Koganei –L1 on-demand connection successfully performed in the first test between Ymaguchi and Tsukuba –Link Aggregation to be achieved in 2008 –Space Light Path Connection To be tested in Usuda 64m site
