Photonic Millimeter-wave/Terahertz Communication and Sensing            

 

The millimeter-wave/terahertz frequency band, with its abundant spectrum resources, is widely regarded as the backbone frequency band for future B5G/6G communication networks. In addition, the coexistence needs of sensing and communication in MMW/THz band have urgently driven the seamless integration of sensing and communication. The MMW/THz photonics, with the natural advantages of inherent wide bandwidth and high frequency, has shown great potential to achieve large-capacity communication and high-precision sensing. Meanwhile, the photonic technology with greater degrees of freedom also facilitates the integration of sensing and communication.

How will optical networks help for High performance AI&ML Data Center Interconnect?                  

 

The rapid growth of large language model (LLM) has accelerated the development of AI/ML-enabled data center (AIDC). AIDC is becoming one of the most important telecom-infrastructure for interconnecting a large number of GPUs (ranging from 10K to 1000K) to support distributed parallel training. Different traffic patterns and requirements between AI workloads and traditional cloud computing pose challenges to the current DCN and DCI network architecture. Optics-enabled switching network is becoming an essential part with its advantage in cost, energy and bandwidth consumption and so on. However, there are still some open questions on: how will optical networks help for AIDC interconnection and distributed parallel AI training? Do we need coordinate CCL and network controller for a globe optimization? if so, how? Which networking solution is better for DCI (OTN or IPoWDM)? Will electronic switching be replaced by all-optics switching in the near future?... With these questions, in this workshop, we have eight invited talks given by the experts from OTT, vendors and academia to share their insights in this field.

Optical Switching Device and Network for Artificial Intelligence Data Centers (AIDCs)      

 

Current electrical switch technology in Artificial Intelligence Data Centers (AIDCs) is expected to hit a wall two generations from now due to the inability to increase the pin density on the Ball Grid Array (BGA) package. As a counterpart, switching the traffic in the optical domain has been investigated considerably as a solution to overcome the bandwidth bottleneck and high power consumption issues. Benefiting from the optical transparency, the optical switching with high bandwidth is independent of the bit rate and data format of the traffic. WDM technology can be employed to boost the optical network capacity at a superior power-per-unit bandwidth performance. In addition, eliminating the power-consuming optical-electrical-optical conversions at the switch nodes significantly improves energy and cost efficiency. However, the optical switches especially for the fast optical switches are not practically deployed in large-scale networks. What are the main challenges? With the emergence of large-scale machine learning models, are there any opportunities for optical switching technologies? What are the technical directions for the optical switches? What kind of role can optical switching play? Will the optical switching update the current topology? and how to cooperate with load balancing and traffic optimization. This workshop will try to discuss these interesting questions and give researchers inspirational ideas.

Progress and Application Considerations for New-Type Optical Fibers and Corresponding Communication Systems            

 

Space Division Multiplexing (SDM) fibers have been developed for over a decade. However, these fibers have not yet seen a large-scale commercial deployment. Meanwhile, Hollow-Core Fiber (HCF) has received significant attention due to its various advantages in optical communication systems, which is considered a disruptive innovation for fiber optic communications. Therefore, it is necessary to sort out and think about the development and application of the two fiber transmission systems based on the new-type fibers, in order to point out the next development direction. This workshop will provide a platform to discuss the progress and application considerations for the two new-type fibers and corresponding systems.
