A new paper of ours was published today in Optics Express!
A new paper of ours was published today in Optics Express (OPTICA Journal) on a possible solution for future optical access network (for FTTH and Fronthauling on PON above 50 Gbit/s per lambda and in particular on 200G PON). This is another paper from the research group of mine that focuses on physical layer solutions for Passive Optical Networks.
Title: "Analysis and experiments on C band 200G coherent PON based on Alamouti polarization-insensitive receivers"
Authors: Abir Hraghi, Giuseppe Rizzelli, Annachiara Pagano, Valter Ferrero and Roberto Gaudino
It is an open access paper, so you can read it “for free” :-) at this link.
Congratulations to all the co-authors!
One PhD position available inside the EWOC Marie Curie Doctoral Network
We have an open PhD position available at Politecnico di Torino, in the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Doctoral Network “EWOC” (Enabling Virtualized Wireless and Optical Coexistence for 5G and Beyond). EWOC unites world-class academic excellence in optical and wireless convergence for Beyond 5G networks.

Two new papers accepted today on IEEE/OPTICA Journal of Lightwave Technology
A very nice coincidence! Today, two new papers of ours were accepted today on IEEE/OPTICA Journal of Lightwave Technology.
They are both on next-generation short-reach solutions, and in particular on ultra-high speed passive optical networks (PON) for FTTH and on intra-data center ultra-high capacity links.
