Alcatel-Lucent Innovation Days – December 2008
Context
Modern telecommunication networks need to be built
with enormous traffic growth in mind. For example,
today some internet exchange nodes have annual
growth rates of more than 200% due to dramatic
increases in users coupled with the needs of enriched
data and broadband video services.
Accommodation of the global explosion in traffic
(Figure 1) can only be assured by implementation of
the most advanced high capacity optical metro/core
transport network technologies. Soon networks based
on next generation 40/100 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE)
transport technologies will predominate. They will be
based on standards currently under preparation by
several standards organisations (e.g. IEEE, ITU-T).
Figure 1: Technology roadmap of optical transport networks.
40/100GbE will be dominant technology within the next decade.
Alcatel-Lucent’s concepts and real-time trials
demonstrate 100Gbe’s graceful introduction and
evolution to meet operators’ future needs.
Challenges
To get from here to there, several challenges
associated with development and operation of ultra-
high speed components and systems for serial 100
Gbit/s optical transmission must be overcome:
Stronger transmission signal impairments
associated with the upgrade of data rates,
due to chromatic dispersion (CD) and
polarization mode dispersion (PMD), must be
compensated or mitigated efficiently.
Spectral efficiency must increase, enabling
100Gb/s transmissions over exsiting 10/40G
DWDM systems (50/100GHz channel spacing).
Complex integrated circuits for digital signal
processing (DSP) and new very high-speed
components have to be developed using
state-of-the-art electronics and photonics.
Innovation
Alcatel-Lucent has developed 100 Gbe concepts,
shown prototypes and done field trials demonstrating
its expertise in addressing future requirements.

Nx100Gb/s optical transmission is feasible over long-
haul fiber links without dispersion compensation units
(DCU) using conventional 10Gb/s DWDM platforms
with narrow channel spacing (50GHz) corresponding
to a spectral efficiency of 2bit/s/Hz.

Verizon 100G field trial with live traffic
Alcatel-Lucent, in a real-time field trial with Verizon
(Figure 3), proved a 100Gb/s channel carrying a HDTV
video signal can transmit parallel to existing live
traffic 10Gb/s DWDM channels.

Scenario
A number of new broadband applications—HDTV
distribution, video downloading, data center content
delivery, etc.—are feeding continued traffic growth in
metro/core networks. Figure 5 shows actual (2008)
composition of network traffic. It illustrates that
broadband/video services (e.g. video distribution,
online video recording, YouTube, iPlayer...) already
dominate network traffic. Important future traffic
drivers will emerge from advanced applications like
telepresence and sensor networks. In other words,
we are only at the beginning of the expected
explosion in both underlying traffic and the need for
more bandwidth for sophisticated applications.

Regardless of what the future may bring in terms of
new applications, the novel 100GbE-based transport
technology represents an important step towards
insuring the capacity and flexibility will be there to
accommodate overall traffic growth requirements.
The proof can already be seen in the pioneering
results on advanced 100Gb/s serial transmission
achieved by Bell Labs. This include records in high
capacity and spectral efficiency of Nx100Gb/s DWDM
transmission, and first real-time 100Gb/s field
transmission trials with live traffic.
BENEFIT:
Bell Lab’s expertise in 100Gb/s assures
that operators are ready for the coming explosion in
bandwidth-hungry applications and services.
