Photonic Networks
High-speed networks supporting comfortable data services
The Internet and other high-speed data communication services and the 5th generation (5G) mobile communications are now indispensable for our lives. These data transmissions use optical fibers as the transmission media capable of sending large amounts of data with low transmission loss. A communication network consists of high-performance transmission equipment, along with optical components and devices.
In order to manage the growing amounts of communication data, research is underway on all-photonic networks that adopt optical technology in all elements from networks to devices to achieve low power consumption, high-quality, high-capacity, and low-latency transmissions.
The network status and the quality of communications must be checked at various locations across network.
