Emerging fibers and amplifiers for next generation communications and laser applications

Emerging fibers and amplifiers for next generation communications and laser applications
Emerging fibers and amplifiers for next generation communications and laser applications
• Tremendous technical progress in a very short period of time across all candidate approaches and all aspects of the increasing capacity per fibre problem. Much fundamental work still though required.
• The potential cost advantages and practicality of any SDM approach is yet to be proven (and much justified scepticism abounds).
• More critical assessment of prospects for real time DSP required.
• Early attempts at networking underway. More work on ROADMs and study of network opportunities/functionality benefits needed.
• More focussed adaptation for specific telecommunication requirements beyond long haul needed exploiting in particular the increased spatial channel packing densities achievable.
• Significant new components and measurement techniques developed. With broad applications in many other fields (and likely on much shorter timescales).
