The large bandwidth of optical channels allows the transmission of all kinds of communication services including video, sound and data whereas integrated semiconductor technology offers low cost realization of complex switching and signal processing functions. The concepts presented here will be realized and studied in an experimental system in the Heinrich-Hertz-Institut at Berlin (West).delarge scale integrationoptical fibrestelecommunication systemsintegrated communication networkglass fibresoptical fibre transmission621journal article
