Trends and enabling technologies on high-speed metro and short-reach optical transmission systems by Lei ZHANG, Yixiao ZHU, Fan ZHANG, Zhangyuan CHEN

“…The optical fiber communication network is the important infrastructure for the modern information society.Thanks to the reduction of fiber loss,the improvement of transceiver devices by electro-optical-electrical conversion,the development of modulation technology and the introduction of digital signal processing,the capacity of optical fiber transmission has been greatly improved.In recent years,due to the large capacity demand of data-centers and the next-generation wireless communication,metro and short-range transmission scenarios below 100 km have attracted lots of attention based on direct detection.The historical evolution of optical fiber communication systems was firstly reviewed,then the limiting factors in the direct detection system were analyzed.Furthermore,the principle and system configuration of one-dimensional to four-dimensional self-coherent technology were introduced,and finally,the low-cost evolution trend of the optical coherent transmission system was prospected.…”

The value-semantic paradigm of the library science’ knowledge: choice of evolutionary suitable foundations by G. M. Vikhreva, O. P. Fedotova

“…The value-semantic paradigm of the library science’ knowledge undergoes constant changes understandable only in the context of its evolution. It is due to a number of factors, namely: transformation of the scientific knowledge system as a whole; changes of this cognitive construction levels; necessity to solve practical tasks connected with libraries’ adaptation to constant changes in the society; intellectual upgrading of the industrial sphere, etc. …”
