Experimental Demonstration of Terahertz-Wave Signal Generation for 6G Communication Systems
Terahertz (THz) frequencies, spanning from 0.1 to 1 THz, are poised to play a pivotal role in the development of future 6G wireless communication systems. These systems aim to utilize photonic technologies to enable ultra-high data rates—on the order of terabits per second—while maintaining low latency and high efficiency. In this work, we present a novel photonic method for generating sub-THz vector signals within the THz band, employing a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) and phase modulator (PM) to create an optical frequency comb, combined with in-phase and quadrature (IQ) modulation techniques. We demonstrate, both through simulation and experimental setup, the generation and successful transmission of a 0.1 THz vector. The process involves driving the PM with a 12.5 GHz radio frequency signal to produce the optical comb; then, heterodyne beating in a uni-traveling carrier photodiode (UTC-PD) generates the 0.1 THz radio frequency signal. This signal is transmitted over distances of up to 30 km using single-mode fiber. The resulting 0.1 THz electrical vector signal, modulated with quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK), achieves a bit error ratio (BER) below the hard-decision forward error correction (HD-FEC) threshold of 3.8 × 10−3. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first experimental demonstration of a 0.1 THz photonic vector THz wave based on an SOA and a simple PM-driven optical frequency comb.

Disaster-Resilient Optical Network Survivability: A Comprehensive Survey
Network survivability endeavors to ensure the uninterrupted provisioning of services by the network operators in case of a disaster event. Studies and news reports show that network failures caused by physical attacks and natural disasters have significant impacts on the optical networks. Such network failures may lead to a section of a network to cease to function, resulting in non-availability of services and may increase the congestion within the rest of the network. Therefore, fault tolerant and disaster-resilient optical networks have grasped the attention of the research community and have been a critical concern in network studies during the last decade. Several studies on protection and restoration techniques have been conducted to address the network component failures. This study reviews related previous research studies to critically discuss the issues regarding protection, restoration, cascading failures, disaster-based failures, and congestion-aware routing. We have also focused on the problem of simultaneous cascading failures (which may disturb the data traffic within a layer or disrupt the services at upper layers) along with their mitigating techniques, and disaster-aware network survivability. Since traffic floods and network congestion are pertinent problems, they have therefore been discussed in a separate section. In the end, we have highlighted some open issues in the disaster-resilient network survivability for research challenges and discussed them along with their possible solutions.

Fast prediction of a high directivity antenna characterization for future wireless communication based on terahertz photonics
Fast prediction of high-directivity antenna characterization has been presented. The Cassegrain antenna working at J band frequency has been evaluated using a terahertz (THz) photonic system based on near-field measurement. The generation and detection of THz signal are based on a non-polarimetric electrooptic (EO) frequency down-conversion technique combined with a self-heterodyne system. The synthesis method is introduced to estimate far-field E and H-plane antenna characteristics. The antenna result is calculated using amplitude and phase-synthesized data based on the measured data. A near-field (NF) to far-field (FF) transformation is employed in the antenna radiation pattern. The effect of blocking objects on the antenna (supporting rods and sub-reflector) is discussed. The antenna characteristics of the measured and synthesized data are compared to the ITU F.699 recommendation. The synthesized result agrees with the measured one on the main lobe angle.

Dithering Analysis in an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing-Radio over Fiber Link
Nonlinearity is one major problem broadband communication faced on utilizing the high capacity of optical fibers. That is due to scattering phenomenon, which results in the deviations of wavelengths and energies. The dithering method is applied in the attempt to reduce those scatterings. In this paper, we propose the performance of a dithering technique based new system OFDM-RoF using two modulator scheme and coherent detection to alleviate the characteristics nonlinearity applied on the system. The dithering technique inputs signal externally to the signal processing systems to eliminate the effects of nonlinearity. Here, we report the performance of a dithering technique based on the OFDM-RoF, the results our experiment showed that the applied dithering with 16 QAM modulation can make the system more reliable and increases the power level 1.55% with 193.1 THz, 2% with 100 THz and 1.99% ~ 200 THz, the best condition are with fd < fc. However, all condition close proximity in the parameters OLP (optical launch power), BER and SER measurement. The result demonstrated a high efficiency and good power in which the OLP operated 6.396 dBm / 4.361 E-3 W~fd 200 THz, 3.578 dBm / 2.279 E-3 W~fd 193.1 THz and 6.420 dBm / 4.3384 E-3 W~100 THz. The best BER value is achieved at 0.33 and SER 0.78 at 5 km~fd 100 THz, 0.33 and 0.768 for 10 km~fd 193.1 THz, 0.478 and 0.92 for 50 km~fd 193.1 THz.

A Survey of Dynamic Bandwidth Assignment Schemes for TDM-Based Passive Optical Network
In time division, multiple access (TDMA)-based passive optical network (PONs), a dynamic bandwidth assignment (DBA) is necessary for efficient utilization of the available bandwidth of the upstream link. An efficient DBA scheme can improve the upstream performance of a traffic class of an ONU in two ways. First, it can increase the bandwidth assignment to it by efficiently utilizing the available bandwidth. Secondly, it can reduce the channel and frame idle time by increasing the polling frequency and by assigning extra surplus bandwidth not used by the other ONUs. Many DBA schemes have been reported for both ITU PONs (GPON and XGPON) and IEEE PONs (EPON and 10 G EPON). In this study, we explain the impact of DBA scheme on the upstream performance of PON and then do a thorough survey of both PON standards, categorize the DBA schemes and review them critically. Based on the literature review we also give our opinion on the most suitable DBA scheme for both type PONs on the basis of upstream delays, frame loss and bandwidth utilization efficiency.

Network Performance Improvement of All-Optical Networks Through an Algorithmic Based Dispersion Management Technique
Network blocking performance due to wavelength continuity constraint in a well-connected all-optical network can be efficiently reduced by utilizing wavelength converters. Nevertheless, the introduction of high bit rate optical services with strict tolerance to signal quality would have a serious impact on the overall network performance since in this circumstance, a request can be blocked due to unacceptable signal quality of potential routes. Chromatic dispersion tolerance, for example, is reduced by the square of the bit rate. By extending the typical application of parametric wavelength converter in solving a wavelength continuity problem, this paper aims to enhance chromatic dispersion management through an improved wavelength conversion algorithm. Consequently, significant improvement in network performance has been demonstrated through reduction in the dispersion effect when the proposed engineering rule is included in the conversion process.

Comprehensive Polling and Scheduling Mechanism for Long Reach Gigabit Passive Optical Network
Dynamic bandwidth assignment (DBA) schemes for long reach PONs face a suffer from higher upstream channel idle time due to long round trip time (RTT). In ITU PONs, the DBA schemes; Immediate allocation with colorless grant (IACG), Efficient bandwidth utilization (EBU) and GPON redundancy eraser algorithm (GREAL) minimize idle time by sending bandwidth grants to the optical network units (ONUs) every downstream frame (DF). EBU further improves IACG by utilizing unused bandwidth (UBW) of other traffic classes. Sending the grant results every DF requires optical line terminal (OLT) to remember all previous grants sent to ONU during RTT and subtract them from the received queue reports. Since, both IACG and EBU assign the excess bandwidth equally to ONUs. Therefore, the OLT is actually not aware of the complete grant to each traffic class and thus do not subtract these completely from receiving reports. This leads to wastage of bandwidth and higher US delays due to over granting. GREAL resolves this problem by not utilizing the excess bandwidth which also leads to increased US delays. The proposed scheme in this study eliminates this shortcoming by allocating excess bandwidth to each traffic class completely at the OLT. Moreover, the UBW assignment mechanism of EBU is also improved. Simulation results show a 50–85 % reduction in delays of type-2 (T2) and type-3 (T3) traffic classes versus GREAL and IACG and up to 40 % reduction in delays for type-4 (T4) versus EBU.

Finite Element Stress Analysis of Optical Fiber due to Mechanical Expansion of Hydrogel Coating
This paper presents the stress analysis in optical fiber due to swelling of hydrogel material coated on it. The silica optical fiber was assumed to be coated by hydrogel that consists of hydroxyethyl methacrylate, acrylic acid and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as crosslinker. The hydrogel swelling was modeled using free energy function. The conditional equilibrium of hydrogel was solved using finite element method and the stress induced in optical fiber was simulated simultaneously. The simulations were done for two hydrogel coating thickness values, 30 µm and 40 µm. Etched optical fiber coated by 40 µm hydrogel was also simulated. The results show that maximum stress in optical fiber is higher for thicker hydrogel thickness and is higher for etched optical fiber. Maximum stress magnitudes at all pH values are below tensile strength of optical fiber.
