  • Synchronization and Coexistence in Quantum Networks

    Synchronization and Coexistence in Quantum Networks

    Authors: Ivan A. Burenkov, Alexandra Semionov, Hala, Thomas Gerrits, Anouar Rahmouni, DJ Anand, Ya-Shian Li-Baboud, Oliver Slattery, Abdella Battou, and Sergey V. Polyakov Abstract: We investigate the coexistence of clock synchronization protocols with quantum signals in a common single-mode optical fiber. By measuring optical noise between 1500 nm to 1620 nm we demonstrate a potential for…

  • High Accuracy Synchronization for Distributed Massive MIMO using White Rabbit

    High Accuracy Synchronization for Distributed Massive MIMO using White Rabbit

    Authors: Thomas Bigler, Albert Treytl, David Loschenbrand, Thomas Zemen Abstract: Accurate synchronization is a crucial prerequisite for wireless communication systems and in particular for spatially distributed massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems which is also used in the upcoming 5G mobile communication standard. Many applications based on MIMO transmission, such as communication systems or beamforming methods,…
