Frequency-bin qubits get the best of time-bin and dual-rail encodings, but require external modulators and pulse shapers to build arbitrary states. Here, instead, the authors work directly on-chip by controlling the interference of biphoton amplitudes gene ...
Fast optical circuit switches (OCSs) with high port count offer reconfigurable bandwidth in optical networks and have the potential to significantly increase the performance and efficiency of modern datacenters. In this paper, we report on a new type of in ...
In this paper, an architecture for code-empowered optical CDMA (OCDMA) lightwave networks is presented. The architecture is based on reconfigurable optically transparent paths among users of the network to provide high-bandwidth optical connections on dema ...
Since the OBS paradigm has become a potential candidate to cope with the needs of the future all optical networks, it has really caught the attention from both academia and industry worldwide. In this direction, OBS networks have been investigated under ma ...
Modelling, dimensioning and performance analysis of optical backbone networks is the main concern of this thesis. Modelling consists in representing a network under a abstract form, simpler and easier to analyse, the model. Dimensioning is achieved when ne ...
Recent advances in photonic communication networks require planning, modelling and simulation tools of ever increasing scope and complexity. Based on valid and credible models, simulators are used heavily to investigate and assess new solutions before impl ...

Failure restoration at the IP layer in IP-over-WDM networks requires to map the IP topology on the WDM topology in such a way that a failure at the WDM layer leaves the IP topology connected. Such a mapping is called survivable. Finding a survivable mappin ...
The electrical consumption of the core global networks is becoming preoccupant. To reduce it, one may bet on technological advances improving the energetic profile of individual components. However, large energy savings can potentially already be achieved, ...

A novel approach for resolution of contentions between asynchronous optical packets, exploiting a self-synchronizing mechanism by means of dynamic all-optical tunable delay line based on stimulated Brillouin scattering in fibers, is reported. Time delay be ...
