1 Photonics in Broadband Access and the Next Generation Network Leo Spiekman

2 The Next Generation Network Architectural evolution in core and access One network for all information and services Everything transmitted as packets

3 Internet Traffic Growth Near exponential increase in bandwidth use Organic growth increase in customer base Shift in content, away from static pages, toward multimedia embedded content and streaming video Larger bandwidth demand of content providers and other high end users (P. Magill, AT&T Labs, LEOS Annual Mtg. 2007)

4 Traffic Type Is Changing Packets (data) have overtaken circuits (voice) 1000 Voice Data Total Traffic (Gb/s) (R. Tkach, Alcatel Lucent, OFC 2008)

5 Economies of Unified Management

6 Three Ways to Increase Capacity Increase bitrates More wavelengths More fibers New technologies are introduced if and when they become cost effective

7 25.6 Tb/s Transmission C1..C79 3-dB Coupler AWG ODD Spans ( 3) C PC Delay C/L TX 1 C/L C/L I PC 80km SSMFDCF L N AWG C T I PC L1..L79 N C/L C/L C/L EDFAs C2..C80 I T L Raman N AWG EVEN C PBS PC T PC C/L C/L TX 2 C/L L 50GHz/100GHz Interleavers AWG PC Concatenated passband: 40 GHz L2..L80 MZ Relative Power (db) MZ L 42.7 Gb/s Clock/2 Clock/ Gb/s C π/2 Control 160 Channels Two Polarizations 2 x 42.7 Gb/s RZ DQPSK Wavelength (nm) 1600 (A. Gnauck, Alcatel Lucent, OFC 2007)

8 DWDM is Hard Linear Impairments Chromatic Dispersion Polarization Mode Dispersion Nonlinear Impairments Self Phase Modulation Four Wave Mixing Cross Phase Modulation

9 DWDM is Really Hard Dispersion (J. Perino, Electronics Letters 1994) FWM (F. Forghieri, Photonics Technology Letters 1994) Gets worse with higher bitrates and channel densities!

10 Network Layering Wildly Successful Ethernet: 1973 WWW: 1989 Google: 1998 DWDM transmission: 1987

11 Network Convergence LAN MAN WAN SONET/ SDH Voice Video Data Ethernet/ IP

12 Line Speed Convergence TbE? GbE Gb / s 100 SONET OC 3072? OC Ethernet OC 48 OC GbE OC 12 OC BASE T GbE 100BASE T/ 100BASE FX Generations

13 Why the Push for Ethernet? Rigorous standardization Vendor interoperability Enables fierce competition Rapid evolution Everyting that is not allowed is prohibited Media, speeds Installed base preservation

14 Convergence to Packets Core converges to IP or Ethernet Increasingly, services independent from transport layer But: Ethernet was not designed for video LAN MAN WAN SONET/ SDH Voice Video Data Ethernet/ IP

15 Different Traffic has Different Needs Type of video High speed Long distance (video download) QoS (streaming) Latency (interactive)

16 DWDM is Hard... Also in the Next Generation Network Linear Impairments Non Linear Impairments Bottom three layers of OSI model cross connect add/drop

17 100 Gb/s is Next? (G. Raybon, Alcatel Lucent, OFC 2008) 100G Ethernet will come, driven by applications (e.g., video on demand) 100 Gb/s transport will have several flavors Ethernet transport (IEEE) for local area and access networks OTN transport (ITU T) for wide area networks We're upgrading our network to 40 Gbit/s, but we will go to 100 Gbit/s as soon as possible and we hope to deploy early next year," Fred Briggs, executive vice president for network operations and technology at Verizon, Lightreading September 2007.

18 100 Gb/s Standardization Activity IEEE-Higher Speed Study Group (HSSG) Ethernet transport for local area and access networks Presentations found at Optical Internetworking Forum (OIF) Common Electrical Interface (CEI) enable high speed signaling for backplanes and chip to chip communications International Telecommunications Union-Telecommunications Standardization Sector (ITU-T) Define standards for Optical Transport Network (OTN) IEEE OIF OIF ITU-T IEEE IEEE (G. Raybon, Alcatel Lucent, OFC 2008)

19 100 Gb/s per channel 100GE MAC 100G parallel transport (= inverse multiplexing) 10 x 10 Gb/s MUX 100 Gb/s (10 λ s) 100GE MAC 100G serial transport 10 x 10 Gb/s 10 x 10 Gb/s Modulators (electrical optical) 10 ps / bit Laser 100 Gb/s 100 Gb/s (or 2 x 50) (1 λ ) 100 Gb/s Modulator (electrical optical) MUX Choice depends on lowest cost per bit: Targeted system capacity (spectral efficiency) Targeted system reach Wavelength management and networking aspects (ROADMs, etc.) (P. Winzer, Alcatel Lucent, OFC 2008)

20 100 Gb/s per wavelength 1 bit/symbol Gbaud (OOK, DPSK, DB/PSBT, ) 2 bits/symbol 4 bits/symbol and up Gbaud Gbaud (DQPSK, pol-muxed OOK, ) (pol-muxed (D)QPSK, 16-QAM, ) RZ-DQPSK (G. Raybon, Alcatel Lucent, OFC 2008) 64-QAM

33 Access Networks: PON or P t P?

39 Strategic Use of Reach Extender Long reach PONs enable CO consolidation Elementary PON Idealized geographic distribution of central offices (CO) CO Serving Area (20 km radius) CO Central Office Red lines represent subset of individual PONs within each CO serving area (P. Iannone, AT&T, OFC 2008) (20 km reach)

40 Strategic Use of Reach Extender Long reach PONs enable CO consolidation ( km reach) Idealized geographic distribution of central offices New CO Serving Area (60 km radius) Eliminate majority of central offices Powered extender box on feeder Possibly increase split per PON Saves on: Powering OpEx Real estate This strategy benefits from WDM or TDM muxing between OLT and PON extender Lots of technology options (, CWDM DWDM, higher rate TDM, λ conversion, etc) New Central Office case for all optical extender box may be more compelling for multi wavelengths Bidirectional reach extender (P. Iannone, AT&T, OFC 2008)
