This paper describes a new tool for gathering (performance) data from optical network devices. During the last few years many National Research and Education Networks (NRENs) have ...
Throughput, power consumption, signal integrity, pin count and routing complexity are all increasingly important interconnect issues that the system designer must deal with. Recen...
— Passive Optical Networks (PONs) solve the bandwidth bottleneck issue as they extend optical networks to homes and businesses. Security concerns in time division multiplexed PON...

— This paper addresses the problem of optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) optimization in optical networks. An analytical OSNR network model is developed for a general multi-lin...
— As an optical signal propagates along a lightpath to its destination in distributed wavelength-routed optical networks, the signal’s quality is degraded by transmission impai...
