In this paper, we propose a coupled theoretical model used for noise processing at nodes of hybrid core fiber with single core fiber (SMF)-multicore fiber (MCF), and intra-core noises and inter-cor…
In this paper, we propose a deep reinforcement learning (DRL)-based algorithm to generate policies of Baseband Function (BBF) placement and routing. In order to explore the performance of the propo…
Cooperative dynamic bandwidth allocation (CO-DBA) enables time division multiplexed passive optical network (TDM-PON) to become a possible solution for mobile fronthaul. Meanwhile, status-report DB…
Flexible Ethernet (FlexE) over WDM transport is one of the key technologies for achieving high-speed next generation radio access network (NG-RAN). The security issue, such as optical fiber wiretap…
To accommodate ever-growing mobile data and heterogeneous 5G services, considerable challenges have emerged to stimulate new design principles on radio access networks (RAN). Advanced functional sp…
Integrating quantum key distribution (QKD) into the optical network through wavelength division multiplex (WDM) is promising for establishing large-scale QKD networks. However, the existing wavelen…
To accommodate the heterogeneous requirements of emerging 5G services, 5G Radio Access Network (RAN) will support the rising paradigm of network slicing, where a single physical RAN infrastructure …
