Agenda

Fabienne SALIOU (Orange Innovation, Lannion) soutiendra son HDR intitulée : « Opportunités d’utiliser de l’amplification optique dans les réseaux d’accès ».

Summary
This document provides an overview of my research activities, which have primarily been developed within Orange Innovation (formerly Orange Labs), in collaboration with numerous colleagues, academic and industrial partners.  Since  2006,  I  have  been  primarily  involved  in  industrial  research  focused  on  future  optical  access networks. This has given me the opportunity to co-supervise 6 PhD students, several master or engineer degree intern students and apprentices. I have contributed to 173 publications and presentations in journals, letters and major conferences, including 35 as first author. The first part of this document “Part A” provides the complete details of my research activities, including my CV, a summary of my research journey and a detailed list of my research activities. At the end of this part A, an annex document provides the full list of publication of my work as first author and co-author. The second part of this document “Part B” reports of my research activities on the opportunity to use optical amplification in optical access networks. After an introduction of the context of these studies, I provide some examples of research work on optical amplification for Time Division Multiplexing-Passive Optical Networks (TDM-PONs), then for Wavelength Division Multiplexing-PON (WDM-PON) and finally for Point-to-Point (PtP) links. After a conclusion on this topic, I give a prospective of my potential future research work.
