Abstract

On the basis of Europeanist project results in the field of photonics, theoptimist thematic network has produced a roadmap for optical communications. This work is described in the present article which provides scenarios for the evolution of the optical network in the coming 10 years. Predictable developments in optical components, sub-systems and systems and their consequences on the architecture and performances of the networks are analysed. Specific interest is focused on the various parts of the network structure namely the access, the metropolitan area, the wide area and the global networks. Technical documents elaborated by theoptimist consortium and minutes fromist workshops can be found on the website http://www.ist-optimist.org/.[1]. They constitute a main source for further information.

Résumé

À partir des résultats des projets européensist dans le domaine de la photonique, le réseau thématique «optimist» a généré une feuille de route pour les télécommunications optiques. L’article décrit les divers scénarios possibles pour les années à venir. Les développements prévisibles du domaine des composants et des sous-systèmes, et les progrès induits par ces devéloppements sur l’architecture et les performances des réseaux sont analysés. On se focalise sur les évolutions dans le réseau d’accès, le réseau métropolitain et le réseau-cœur. L’article est tiré des nombreux documents techniques élaborés par le consortium «optimist» et se trouvant sur le site web http://www.ist-optimist.org.
