USING WAVELENGTH ROUTING IN THE OPTICAL INTERCONNECTION COMPUTER NETWORK

The wavelength routing technology applied to computer interconnection networks is introduced in this paper.By analyzing the relation between wavelength and network routing,we describe a concept of wavelength used as network IP address,and propose a wavelength routing topology to extend the scale of a network and realize the scalability of the network.Moreover,a twin wavelength ring network that is being developed in our laboratory to implement and test the function of wavelength routing is presented,and the main units of the twin wavelength ring network are presented also.According to the testing results based on a single wavelength ring network,it proves that the optical interconnection technology is a perfect technology to provide enough communication bandwidth for computer network.

Evolution Process of Urban Spatial Pattern in Hubei Province Based on DMSP/OLS Nighttime Light Data

This paper intends to investigate the urban spatial patterns of Hubei Province and its evolution from three different perspectives: urban nodes, urban connections and urban clusters. The research adopts nighttime light imagery of cities in Hubei Province, the viewpoint of ′point-axis-area′ in the ′point-axis system′ theory, and employs light index model, gravity model and social network analysis. The findings are as follows: 1) In terms of urban nodes, the urbanization process of Hubei has been carried out mainly on the basis of external expansion rather than internal increasing. The polarization trend of urban connection network is strengthening. 2) As for urban connections, the estimation of urban connections using light index model is capable of containing various actual flow, and the connections are getting increasingly closer. 3) In regard to urban groups, seven urban groups of varying sizes have formed. On that basis, three stable and relatively independent urban groups as the centers, namely Wuchang, Yichang and Xiangyang emerge as well. But the structures of ′Wuhan Metropolitan Area′, ′Yichang-Jingzhou-Jingmen City Group′ and ′Xiangyang-Shiyen-Suizhou City Group′, which are defined by local development strategy in Hubei Province, are different from the above three urban groups.

Load Balancing in WDM Optical Networks with and without Wavelength-Continuity Constraints

In practical optical networks, there is often the same number of wavelengths in a fiber. But if it is not carefully designed, there will be much difference in link load among different fibers, and unnecessary wavelengths will be needed. This paper investigated this load balancing issues to minimize the wavelength requirements. Both Integer Linear Programming (ILP) and heuristic algorithms were presented to solve such a problem in WDM optical networks with or without wavelength continuity constraints.

The time delay of the MIN and the switches needed are also analyzed in theory, thededuced result conforms that the MIN designed previously is feasible. In the case of the samecommunication quality guaranteed, MIN uses the least switches and completes the communication moreefficiently.

New Passenger Services in Railway Stations Based on Mode Group Diversity Multiplexing Optical Fiber Communications

Nowadays, because of its wide bandwidth and high communication capability, the optical fiber is more and more used for high data rate transmission of information in railway environments. Conventionally, only one service is sent over the fiber at a time. However, many different services can be simultaneously conveyed in railway stations such as passenger information service, cellular phone, Wi-Fi... The objective of the work proposed in this paper is to demonstrate the potential benefits of transmitting radio signals over fiber in a railway environment. The main idea is to exploit the full capacity of the fiber by transmitting multiple services using the same fiber. Since, different services are operating in different frequency bands; we propose a new multiplexing technique called Mode Group Diversity Multiplexing （MGDM） to ensure the transmission of multiple services using the same fiber, without additional infrastructure. There are numerous advantages of the proposed technique, e.g., faster and reliable data exchange, high resolution video surveillance capability, high data rate information exchange in railway stations. We present, in this paper, the physical characteristics of optical fibers, performance of MGDM multiplexing technique, and the influence of the laser excitation conditions at the entrance of the fiber on the performances of the system.

Atom-atom entanglement characteristics in fiber-connected cavities system within the double-excitation space

Starting from a rudimentary quantum-networks model that consists of two two-level confined atoms locating respectively in spatially-separated cavities coupled by fiber,we investigate the complex entanglement characteristics of the composite system analytically under the maximally initial entangled state that generates two excitations simultaneously during the temporal-evolution process.Our calculation clearly shows that,through mediating the atom-cavity coupling strength and photon-photon hopping rate appropriately,the entanglement dynamics displays some distinctive temporal properties differing from those obtained in one-excitation space,characterized partially by these newly quantum phenomena termed as entanglement sudden death and recurrence.Effectively,within the framework of two excitations,we suggest the purposeful manipulations of atomic entanglement communication for quantum networks.

Wavelength Reservation Scheme with Switch Fabric Status in Distributed Mesh Optical Networks

A new wavelength reservation scheme is proposed the reconfiguration times of optical cross-connects （OXCs） for we consider the reconfiguration information of switch fabrics to mitigate the connection setup time and minimize WDM optical networks in this study. In this scheme, in the signaling protocol, which is designated as the signaling with switch fabric status （SWFS）. Distributed reservation algorithms will reserve the wavelength with minimum of reconfiguration times of OXCs along the route. Simulation results indicate that the proposed schemes with switch fabrics status have shorter setup time, lower switching ratio as well as better blocking performance than those of the traditional classic schemes. Moreover, the proposed schemes with SWFS significantly reduce the number of switch fabrics that need to be reconfigured.

Optical Sensing： the Last Frontier for Enabling Intelligence in Our Wired up World and Beyond

Consigned to the shadows of telecommunications, optical sensing has often taken a back seat in a young person＇s mind when considering the importance of photonics, or optics, to the advancement of the society and of knowledge. Here, I touch on briefly how broad optical sensing and sensing generally has become and how and why it is becoming the catalyst for the convergence of many technologies and in the process raising significant philosophical questions about the transformation of our society and indeed ourselves. In doing so I touch on many of the complexities in real life that influence the breakthroughs we see today, including a healthy speculation and critique on our society and an awareness of the motivations to improve it that drive many of them.

Water-induced reversible dissolution/reorganization transformations of Cu(Ⅱ)-K(I) heterometallic coordination polymers

Three new heterometallic coordination compounds, namely, [KCu（I3）（L）2（H2O）2]n （1）, [KCu（I3）（L）2（H20）]n （2） and [CIIK4（I3）z（L＇）4]n （3）, were prepared and characterized （HL=5-methylpyrazine-2-carboxylic acid, HL＇=p-tolylacetic acid）. Structural studies revealed that 1 and 2 exhibit 3D frameworks with rectangular channels occupied by triiodide ions. Both compounds can be symbolized as a 5-connected net with pcu topology. In compound 3, a one-dimensional polyhedral chain is connected by hexanuclear mask like clusters [Cu2K408]. These chains are further linked each other via rare （1,1,3,3）-triiodide ion-bridging units to generate a 3D （4,5,6）-connected net with the point symbol of { 12}2{4·12^2}4{4^6}{4^8·62}4{49.66}4. It is noteworthy that water-induced reversible dissolution/reorganization processes occur between 1/2 and [Cu（L）2（HzO）],＇3nH20. The thermal and photoluminescence properties of compounds 1, 2, and 3 were investigated as well.
