Riding on cutting-edge technologies such as flex oDSP, super SD-FEC, and flex modulation format, this field trial achieved a record-breaking transmission distance of 1, 500 km using a super-channel PDM-16QAM-based high spectral efficiency solution, and a second record-breaking transmission distance of 3, 325 km using a super-channel Nyquist PDM-QPSK-based ultra-long-haul solution.
One of the early papers to come out of the project is a look at how the city of Busan, in South Korea, is using cloud-based city services to improve efficiency, reduce emissions and serve its residents better.
