TL;DR: A reconfigurable non-blocking 4-port optical router based on 4 thermally tuned microring resonators is demonstrated and wavelength division multiplexing data transmission with the data rate of 8×25 Gbps has been implemented.
Abstract: A reconfigurable non-blocking four-port optical router with the least optical switches is demonstrated. The device is based on microring resonators tuned through thermo-optic effect. The optical signal-to-noise ratio of the device at its nine routing states is about 15 dB. A 25 Gbps data transmission has been performed on its whole 12 optical links, and 8-channel wavelength division multiplexing data transmission has been implemented to expand its communication capacity. The energy efficiency of the device is 23 fJ/bit, and the response time of the device is about 25 μs.

TL;DR: An experimental system that transports ATM (asynchronous transfer mode) cells through a passive optical local network (APON) is described, permitting early economic deployment of ATM to smaller, or start up customers.
Abstract: An experimental system that transports ATM (asynchronous transfer mode) cells through a passive optical local network (APON) is described. It distributes a 155.52 Mb/s ATM stream from an ATM node to 64 customer ends, synchronizing return cells to interleave at the exchange. A variant of the Orwell protocol is used for bandwidth control. Key features demonstrated are clock phase alignment and an exchange optical receiver design to realize a practical system. APON provides dialog service to those smaller customers that cannot be economically served using dedicated point-to-point links, permitting early economic deployment of ATM to smaller, or start up customers. >

TL;DR: An optical aggregation device (20) can couple a plurality of optical line terminals (18) to a common plurality of Optical Network terminals (16) via a passive optical network (12) as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: An optical aggregation device (20) can couple a plurality of optical line terminals (18) to a common plurality of optical network terminals (16). The device is coupled to the network terminals via a passive optical network (12). The aggregation device (20) makes it possible to more fully use all of the available bandwidth of the passive optical network (12).
