TL;DR: In this paper, the advantages of spatial superchannels for future terabit networks based on space-division multiplexing (SDM) are discussed, and a coherent receiver utilizing joint digital signal processing (DSP) is demonstrated.

TL;DR: How a Globally Reconfigurable Intelligent Photonic Network (GRIPhoN) between data centers could improve operational flexibility for cloud service providers is discussed.

TL;DR: In this paper, a two-span, 67-km space division multiplexed (SDM) wavelength division multiple access (WDM) system incorporating the first reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer (ROADM) supporting spatial superchannels and the first cladding-pumped multicore erbium-doped fiber amplifier directly spliced to multicore transmission fiber is presented.

TL;DR: This paper addresses the major innovations developed in Phase 1 of the program by the team led by Telcordia and AT&T with the ultimate goal to transfer the technology to commercial and government networks for deployment in the next few years.

TL;DR: In this paper, a single-port, reflective, waveguide modulator based on semiconductor laser amplifier technology was proposed, which achieved a reflection-mode chip gain of 17 dB at /spl lambda/=1.56 /spl mu/m.
