Advances and Opportunities in Optical Communication Networks and Systems

Today we are at the beginning of 4th industrial revolution in which Photonics in general and Optical Communication technologies in particular are the key enablers. They offer India unlimited opportunities to contribute and benefit, driving her green-economic growth towards US $5 Trillion goal by 2024. Photonics is everywhere around us. New photonics technologies, products and applications continue to emerge. All emerging technologies such as IoT, artificial intelligence, virtual reality, machine learning, smart X (X could be states, cities, villages, communities, and/or homes), data centers, vehicular communications, and cloud computing rely heavily on Optical Communication Networks and Systems. This talk will discuss advances and opportunities in this field.
