Optical network transports are traditionally designed with ring protection and/or dedicated (1+1) protection as they provide the best reliability for the networks.
This paper introduces a new framework for a reliability-based optical network re-design and re-optimization to improve the quality and performance of traffic transport.
Nowadays, users consume a lot of functionality in their home coming from a service provider located in the Internet.
Power management in 'ground' application is fasting moving to integration of different function in a monolithic block or few building blocks, by new packaging technologies.
The technological trends underlying the application of CMOS technology in wireless applications are leading to the integration of the RF analog functions and the digital baseband processing into a
Designing high-speed opto-electronic components necessary for 100-Gb/s transmission systems is a challenging undertaking.
We have successfully integrated microfluid flow channels, defined by surface energy differences, with thin-film organic field-effect transistors.
The third-generation (3G) wide area wireless networks and 802.11 local area wireless networks possess complementary characteristics.
This paper describes the results of the project "Integration of Broadcast and Broadband in LTE/5G" (IMB5).
IP telephony presents a tremendous opportunity to service providers to offer both traditional services as well as a range of creative new services.
