摘要
This paper highlights recent advances in the development of photonic transport networks. The requirements of future networks are discussed and the photonic network envisaged is identified. The role of photonic technologies in enhancing network performance is elucidated. The attributes of the new optical layer, in terms of transport layer architecture, and function allocation are discussed. The IP backbone network based on optical path technologies is highlighted. Some cutting-edge technologies, such as supercontinuum light sources and a coherent optical amplifier, are demonstrated.
