From the available techniques, we focus our attention on the asynchronous Q method, and it is described and evaluated for several working conditions. This technique allows optical performance monitoring without synchronization, thus allowing the performance monitor to work at a much lower ratio and without performing clock recovery/synchronization, which is quite a hard and expensive task to perform, especially if considering different bit rates and pulse formats. The results of this technique are discussed, taking into account linear and nonlinear effects. Its resilience to the pulse format is also observed by considering a square pulse, where the \"on\" time is much more evident than the transition time, and a raised cosine pulse where the conditions are reversed. Some experimental results are shown and validated with the synchronous BER testing standard technique.","PeriodicalId":126085,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 2002 4th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks (IEEE Cat.

An improved design of a variable optical attenuator, based on a bent channel waveguide, is presented as an example of applying this strategy.","PeriodicalId":126085,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 2002 4th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks (IEEE Cat.

Light of on of the laser diodes was square wave modulated at 500 Hz to simulate channel addition/removal. At the output of the RFA, the modulated channel was eliminated with an optical band-pass filter and power fluctuations of the c.w. channel were recorded with a high speed digital oscilloscope. Output power transients in RFA were studied theoretically using a large-signal numerical model that includes time variation effects and takes into account pump-to-pump and signal-to-signal interactions and generation of amplified spontaneous emission.","PeriodicalId":126085,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 2002 4th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks (IEEE Cat.

We consider centralised control as it allows us to implement a request scheduler residing in the control node and carry out QoS-based scheduling of the lightpath requests issued by newly aggregated bursts as well as the dynamic lightpath allocation to these bursts. Even though there is an overhead involved in the dynamic lightpath set-up in the centralised control, we demonstrate that the overhead becomes negligible if average burst size is maintained in the timescale of tens of ms. This way, the wavelength-routed optical burst switched network (WR-OBS) represents a fast circuit-switching scheme which is positioned in between wavelength-routed optical networks (WRON) and traditional OBS in terms of switching time. We show that the WR-OBS request scheduling can effectively provide low burst blocking probability (BBP) for both high and low priority traffic classes, whilst bounding end-to-end delays for each class. We also demonstrate that the desired QoS in WR-OBS can be achieved with higher bandwidth utilisation with respect to the traditional WRON. The trade-offs between BBP, end-to-end delays and wavelength requirement are presented.","PeriodicalId":126085,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 2002 4th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks (IEEE Cat.
