ALLEGRO News on Publication “Point-to-multipoint Coherent Transceivers for Next-Generation Mobile Transport”
Abstract: Point-to-multipoint coherent transceivers can enable high-capacity and costeffective bidirectional ransmission for x-Haul networks. This contribution reviews the technology, requirements and potential to support next-generation mobile transport networks....
ALLEGRO News on Publication “Field Trial of a Dynamically Switched Quantum Network Supporting Co-existence of Entanglement”
Abstract We present an 8-user quantum network supporting entanglement distribution, prepare-andmeasure uantum key distribution, Tbps level classical communication, their co-existence and switching capability in a metro network with over 50 km of field-deployed fibre....
ALLEGRO News on Publication “Field trial demonstration of AI-engine driven cross-domain rerouting and optimisation in dynamic optical networks”
Abstract An AI-engine-driven cross-domain orchestrator has been implemented on a multi-domain field trial testbed with demonstrations of deploying end-to-end services with a 20% improvement in BER performance, enabled by the developed flex-grid multi-channel QoT...
ALLEGRO News on Publication “Band/Multi-Fiber Solutions in Optical Metropolitan Area Network”
Abstract—The tremendous traffic growth generated by video, cloud, future 5G and beyond services is compelling network operators to re-think network architectures to ensure flexible and efficient service support. Filterless optical networking based on...
ALLEGRO News on Publication “Hardware Fingerprint Authentication in Optical Networks Using Anomaly Detection”
Abstract: We propose and demonstrate a hardware fingerprint authentication model in optical networks using anomaly detection, where the recognition accuracy of 97.53% and miss alarm rate of 0 are achieved over 20-km single-mode fiber channel....
ALLEGRO News on Publication “Toward Optimal Orchestration of Time-shared QKD Infrastructure”
Abstract Orchestrating Time-multiplexed QKD (Quantum Key Distribution) infrastructure is a complex task which, properly performed, can substantially reduce QKD service deployment costs. This work provides the basis to orchestrate near-optimal key exchange routing and...
ALLEGRO News on Publication “Software-defined, programmable L1 dataplane: demonstration of fabric hardware resilience using optical switches”
Abstract We propose a programmable optical fabric design for Data Center networks that extends SDN to L1. We present experiments on our HPC/ML testbed leveraging the programmable network to automatically failover from hardware or software failures....
ALLEGRO News on Publication “Optical Identification for User Authentication in Quantum Key Distribution Systems
Abstract We propose a novel technique for user authentication in fiber-based quantum key distribution systems. Practical implementation using coherent optical frequency-domain reflectometry is described and authentication security assessed....
