Data Sovereign LLM-Assisted Automation Platform for Open Optical and Packet Transport Networks
The Open Optical Transport Network (OOPT) architecture, defined by the Telecom Infra Project (TIP), is currently being deployed by major operators. The OOPT ecosystem, with its multi-stakeholder and multi-vendor environment, faces challenges like...
Hybrid Photonic Integrated Circuit for Tunable, Narrow-Linewidth mmWave to sub-THz Signal Generation
We experimentally demonstrate a photonic integrated circuit (PIC) that generates tunable mmWave signals with Hz-level linewidths. Utilizing on-chip optical frequency combs and injection locking, the phase-locked optical signals exhibit beat notes...
NOBS: A Data-Sovereign Telemetry and Monitoring Framework for 6G Networks
In this paper, we present the Network Observability Platform (NOBS), a data-sovereign telemetry and monitoring framework designed to meet the primary needs of multi-vendor packet-optical networks in the Sixth Generation (6G) era. NOBS supports...
Linear Phase Beampattern Design with Set-theoretic Methods
This paper investigates the potential to approximate a nonconvex beampattern design problem with constraints in the angular domain via a restriction to a convex subset of the feasible region. Simulations show that that imposing this convex...
