Telecom operators’ infrastructure is undergoing high pressure to keep the pace with the traffic demand generated by the societal need of remote communications, bandwidth-hungry applications, and the fulfilment of 5G requirements. Software-defined networking (SDN) entered in scene decoupling the data-plane forwarding actions from the control-plane decisions, hence boosting network programmability and innovation. Optical networks are also capitalizing on SDN benefits jointly with a disaggregation trend that holds the promise of overcoming traditional vendor-locked island limitations. In this work, we present our framework for disaggregated optical networks that leverages on SDN and container-based management for a realistic emulation of deployment scenarios. Our proposal relies on Kubernetes for the containers’ control and management, while employing the NETCONF protocol for the interaction with the light-weight software entities, i.e., agents, which govern the emulated optical devices. Remarkably, our agents’ structure relies on components that offer high versatility for accommodating the wide variety of components and systems in the optical domain. We showcase our proposal with the emulation of an 18-node European topology employing Cassini-compliant optical models, i.e., a state-of-the-art optical transponder proposed in the Telecom Infrastructure Project. The combination of our versatile framework based on containerized entities, the automatic creation of agents and the optical-layer characteristics represents a novel approach suitable for operationally complex carrier-grade transport infrastructure with SDN-based disaggregated optical systems.

Nanotechnologies are entering every field. Nanoparticles have been widely used in medicine and technology. We decided to study the behavior of nanoparticles under the influence of light and its effects on solar cells, based on a number of properties. How gold and silver nanoparticles are introduced into the optical layer of the solar cell has been studied enough to affect the properties of the solar cell. However, the effect of silicon-based solar cell metal nanoparticles in the n domain on the solar cell has not been sufficiently studied. In addition, in this study, the properties of solar cells, which included nanoparticles of various shapes, were modeled. Since the end of the last century, new methods of modeling have been introduced into scientific research. A lot of modeling software has been developed. They are based on a numerical method. Synopsys program of Sentaurus TCAD software package was used in the modeling to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the research. Using Sentaurus TCAD, a model of a silicon-based solar cell with simple and various shapes of platinum nanoparticles embedded in the n field was developed. The focus is on determining the effect of the shape of a nanoparticle introduced on solar cells on its properties. The effect of nanoparticles on the optical and I-V characteristics of a solar cell is also analyzed in depth.

AbstractThe rapid development of 4G and multimedia services drives the exponential increase of the demand for transmission bandwidth. The OTN technology therefore emerges. In recent years, the number of OTN devices in backbone and core equipment rooms has increased sharply. However, due to factors such as equipment room planning, air conditioner, and power supply, new electrical racks cannot be installed in the same equipment room as original optical racks during OTN expansion of 80-wavelength systems. The remote deployment of OTN electrical racks has certain impact on OTN system indicators, OM/OD, and OTU optical-layer parameters. This document analyzes the factors that are affected by the remote deployment of OTN electrical racks, creates simulation models based on scenarios, and provides suggestions on the remote deployment design of OTN electrical racks.

Aim. To modify the calculated parameters of the lenticle extraction refractive surgery through a small access (SMILE), evaluate its safety and clinical efficacy in correcting high myopia.Materials and methods. 34 patients (68 eyes) underwent surgery by a modified SMILE technology under local anesthesia. In all cases, the patients had a high degree of myopia, in 37 % in combination with astigmatism.Uncorrected visual acuity before surgery averaged 0.05 ± 0.11, best corrected visual acuity of 0.94 ± 0.1, the pre-operative spherical refraction component was –7.23 ± 0.75, the cylindrical component was –0.48 ± 0.59.During the operation, to obtain the maximum possible refraction result using the proposed method, the standard operation parameters were changed: the corneal flap thickness was reduced to 100 μm, the neural optical layer by 5 μm, the diameter of the optical zone depended on the residual cornea thickness, which should exceed 280–290 μm. Corneal access was increased by 15–20 degrees.Results. The next day after surgery, monocular uncorrected visual acuity in distance in 73 % of patients was 0.8 or higher, and in 41 % of cases it was equal to or exceeded 1.0. The spherical equivalent on the first day after surgery had a slight hypermetropic shift, which was completely leveled by the year of follow-up. During the surgical intervention and in the postoperative period, no complications were noted.Conclusion. Using the proposed algorithm for calculating the refractive effect of the operation SMILE with a high degree of myopia allows obtaining a high refractive effect and avoiding possible complications.
