Investigating Optical Transport Network Performance:A Recurrence Plot Approach

In future optical transport networks,lightpath performance analysis is of great practical significance for fully automated management.In general,the quality of transmission(QoT)of lightpaths,measured by optical quality factor or optical signal-to-noise ratio,has a complex time-varying process,along with the interactions of the other lightpath state parameters(LSPs),such as transmit power,chromatic dispersion,polarization mode dispersion.Current studies are mostly focused on lightpath QoT estimation,but ignoring lightpath-level data analytics.In this case,our article proposes a novel lightpath performance analysis method considering recurrence plot(RP)and cross recurrence plot(CRP).Firstly,we give a detailed interpretation on the recurrence patterns of LSPs via a qualitative 2-D RP representation and its quantitative measure.It can potentially enable the accurate and fast lightpath failure detection with a low computational burden.On the other hand,CRP is devoted to modeling the relationships between lightpath QoT and LSPs,and the correlation degree is determined by a geometric mean of multiple indexes of cross recurrence quantification analysis.From the view of application,such CRP analysis can provide the effective knowledge sharing to guarantee more credible QoT prediction.Extensive experiments on a real-world optical network dataset have clearly demonstrated the effectiveness of our proposal.

5G Flexible Optical Transport Networks with Large-Capacity, Low-Latency and High-Efficiency

The fifth generation(5G) of mobile communications are facing big challenges, due to the proliferation of diversified terminals and unprecedented services such as internet of things(IoT), high-definition videos, virtual/augmented reality(VR/AR). To accommodate massive connections and astonish mobile traffic, an efficient 5G transport network is required. Optical transport network has been demonstrated to play an important role for carrying 5G radio signals. This paper focuses on the future challenges, recent studies and potential solutions for the 5G flexible optical transport networks with the performances on large-capacity, low-latency and high-efficiency. In addition, we discuss the technology development trends of the 5G transport networks in terms of the optical device, optical transport system, optical switching, and optical networking. Finally, we conclude the paper with the improvement of network intelligence enabled by these technologies to deterministic content delivery over 5G optical transport networks.

Application of Neural Network in Fault Location of Optical Transport Network

Due to the increasing variety of information and services carried by optical networks, the survivability of network becomes an important problem in current research. The fault location of OTN is of great significance for studying the survivability of optical networks. Firstly, a three-channel network model is established and analyzing common alarm data, the fault monitoring points and common fault points are carried out. The artificial neural network is introduced into the fault location field of OTN and it is used to judge whether the possible fault point exists or not. But one of the obvious limitations of general neural networks is that they receive a fixedsize vector as input and produce a fixed-size vector as the output. Not only that, these models is even fixed for mapping operations (for example, the number of layers in the model). The difference between the recurrent neural network and general neural networks is that it can operate on the sequence. In spite of the fact that the gradient disappears and the gradient explodes still exist in the neural network, the method of gradient shearing or weight regularization is adopted to solve this problem, and choose the LSTM (long-short term memory networks) to locate the fault. The output uses the concept of membership degree of fuzzy theory to express the possible fault point with the probability from 0 to 1. Priority is given to the treatment of fault points with high probability. The concept of F-Measure is also introduced, and the positioning effect is measured by using location time, MSE and F-Measure. The experiment shows that both LSTM and BP neural network can locate the fault of optical transport network well, but the overall effect of LSTM is better. The localization time of LSTM is shorter than that of BP neural network, and the F1-score of LSTM can reach 0.961566888396156 after 45 iterations, which meets the accuracy and real-time requirements of fault location. Therefore, it has good application prospect and practical value to introduce neural network into the fault location field of optical transport network.

STUDY ON STRATEGY OF DYNAMIC JOINT ROUTING AND RESOURCE ALLOCATION IN LAYERED OPTICAL TRANSPORT NETWORKS

A layered network model for optical transport networks is proposed in this paper,which involves Internet Protocol(IP) ,Synchronous Digital Hierarchy(SDH) and Wavelength Division Mul-tiplexing(WDM) layers. The strategy of Dynamic Joint Routing and Resource Allocation(DJRRA) and its algorithm description are also presented for the proposed layered network model. DJRRA op-timizes the bandwidth usage of interface links between different layers and the logic links inside all layers. The simulation results show that DJRRA can reduce the blocking probability and increase network throughput effectively,which is in contrast to the classical separate sequential routing and resource allocation solutions.

Evolution of Optical Transport Networks and Their Solution in 3G Networks

As new generation mobile networks, 3G networks focus on data services and integrate voice, data and multimedia services. However, traditional Optical Transport Networks (OTNs) cannot meet the requirements of 3G networks anymore, because of their complicated configuration, low bandwidth efficiency, high cost, and bad network and service scalability. The emerging of Multi-Service Transport Platform (MSTP), Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM), and Automatically Switched Optical Network (ASON) technologies for optical fiber communications makes up for these weaknesses. The leading solution to 3G access transport networks is the MSTP technology based on Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH), while that to 3G core transport network is ASON+WDM.

A Novel Optical Burst Mesh Network with Optical Time Slot Interchange at Source Nodes

In this paper, we propose an optical burst network architecture supporting the ge- netic mesh topology. The intermediate node architecture of the mesh network can be the same with current wavelength switching Wave- length Division Multiplexing （WDM） net- works, and thus can reuse existing deployed infrastructure. We employ a novel Optical Time Slot Interchange （OTSI） at the source nodes for the first time to mitigate the burst conten- tion and to increase the bandwidth utilization. Time- and wavelength-domain reuse in the OTSI significantly saves optical components and red- uces blocking probability.

Selective deletion of zinc transporter 3 in amacrine cells promotes retinal ganglion cell survival and optic nerve regeneration after injury

Vision depends on accurate signal conduction from the retina to the brain through the optic nerve,an important part of the central nervous system that consists of bundles of axons originating from retinal ganglion cells.The mammalian optic nerve,an important part of the central nervous system,cannot regenerate once it is injured,leading to permanent vision loss.To date,there is no clinical treatment that can regenerate the optic nerve and restore vision.Our previous study found that the mobile zinc(Zn^(2+))level increased rapidly after optic nerve injury in the retina,specifically in the vesicles of the inner plexiform layer.Furthermore,chelating Zn^(2+)significantly promoted axonal regeneration with a long-term effect.In this study,we conditionally knocked out zinc transporter 3(ZnT3)in amacrine cells or retinal ganglion cells to construct two transgenic mouse lines(VGAT^(Cre)ZnT3^(fl/fl)and VGLUT2^(Cre)ZnT3^(fl/fl),respectively).We obtained direct evidence that the rapidly increased mobile Zn^(2+)in response to injury was from amacrine cells.We also found that selective deletion of ZnT3 in amacrine cells promoted retinal ganglion cell survival and axonal regeneration after optic nerve crush injury,improved retinal ganglion cell function,and promoted vision recovery.Sequencing analysis of reginal ganglion cells revealed that inhibiting the release of presynaptic Zn^(2+)affected the transcription of key genes related to the survival of retinal ganglion cells in postsynaptic neurons,regulated the synaptic connection between amacrine cells and retinal ganglion cells,and affected the fate of retinal ganglion cells.These results suggest that amacrine cells release Zn^(2+)to trigger transcriptomic changes related to neuronal growth and survival in reginal ganglion cells,thereby influencing the synaptic plasticity of retinal networks.These results make the theory of zinc-dependent retinal ganglion cell death more accurate and complete and provide new insights into the complex interactions between retinal cell networks.
