Enhancement of the Monet/Atonet Washington DC Network
Abstract
Report discusses efforts to design, develop, implement, support, and demonstrate experimental activities performed on the MONET/ATDNet network and between MONET/ATDNet and other Next Generation Internet research networks. The report also describes research in the use of hierarchical multiplexing approaches for more efficient use of multi-wavelength networks and enhancements to the MONET Network Control & Management System. Specific experiments were performed for: (1) high speed transmission with alternative modulation formats (such as R7) with a long term goal of demonstrating 40 Obit/sec transmission between two nodes in the MONET Network; (2) exploring the limits on transmission of non-SONET rates (major example of which is SMPTE 292M 1.5 Obit/sec high definition television format) and find ways to extend the transmission to all MONET nodes with improved performance; and (3) exploring network stability, including addition of noise due to multipath interference and polarization effects and network behavior in the presence of transients, such as added and dropped channels.
