Experimental demonstration of three-fold wavelength multicasting of a 64-QAM 120 Gbit/s data channel using a Kerr frequency comb and nonlinear wave mixing

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Arne Kordts, Fatemeh Alishahi

We experimentally demonstrate three-fold wavelength multicasting of a 64-quadrature-amplitude-modulation (QAM), 120-Gbit/s data channel using a microresonator Kerr frequency comb and nonlinear wave mixing. The multicasting is achieved with a data signal an ...

Switching Between Loss-Based and Delay-Based Mode for Real-Time Media Congestion Controllers

Sergio Mena, Stefano D'Aronco

Congestion control may be provided. A set of rules may allow a congestion control process to switch from delay-mode to loss-mode (e.g., in the presence of loss-based flows) and back to delay-mode (e.g., when loss-based flows stop). Fairness properties of t ...
