We propose and demonstrate a new wavelength-division-sampling technique with high temporal resolution. A discrete-time true-time delay generates multiwavelength near-transform-limited pulses from a supercontinuum source. Pulses sample the analog signal in an electro-optic modulator and are subsequently demultiplexed in a wavelength-division-multiplexing filter. A 100-Gsample/s experimental demo...

Abstract— Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is an important technique to support high speed transmission of broadband traffic in wireless networks, especially broadband wireless local area networks (LANs). Based on OFDM, a new multiple access scheme, called OFDM-TDMA with subcarrier allocation (OFDMTDMA/SA), is introduced in this paper. It provides more flexibility in resource a...

Finite Radon Transform mapper has the ability to increase orthogonality of sub-carriers, it is non sensitive to channel parameters variations, and has a small constellation energy compared with conventional Fast Fourier Transform based orthogonal frequency division multiplexing. It is also able to work as a good interleaver which significantly reduces the bit error rate. Due to its good orthogo...

orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (ofdm) has become a promising method for many wireless communication applications. however, one main drawback of ofdm systems is the high peak-to-average power ratio (papr). selected mapping (slm) is a well-known technique to decrease the problem of high papr in ofdm systems. in this method, transmitter is obliged to send some bits named side informati...

We consider the problem of traffic grooming in WDM ring networks. Previous studies have focused on minimizing aggregate representations of the network cost. In this work, we consider a Min-Max objective, in which it is desirable to minimize the cost at the node where this cost is maximum. Such an objective is of practical value when dimensioning a network for unknown future traffic demands and/...

Abstract— We consider the problem of traffic grooming in WDM ring networks. Traffic grooming is a variant of the wellknown logical topology design problem, and is concerned with the development of techniques for combining low speed traffic components onto high speed channels in order to minimize network cost. Previous studies have focused on aggregate representations of the network cost. In thi...

This paper presents a workable solution for transport of IP packets over optical networks. The protocol heavily relies on the data link and physical layer of the proposed standard 10 Gb/s Ethernet. The architecture is able to optically multiplex and forward asynchronous packets like those generated by classical Ethernet devices.
