Toward an Affluent Society through Photonic Network Technologies
– Architecture, Systems, and ICT Hardware –
The Photonic Network Research Institute promotes research and development to realize sustainable future networks that can accommodate hugely expanding information traffic. This is achieved by flexibly combining various kinds of services, including ultra high-speed data transmission and 3D contents distribution, while also seeking to reduce excessive power consumption and maintain network availability.

Overview
Miyazaki Tetsuya, Director General
Organization
Plans and supports effective R&D activities in the Photonic Network Research Institute.
Researches and develops component and device technologies to realize next generation high-speed communications
Researches and develops a photonic network system aiming to surpass the functionality, capacity, and efficiency achieved by conventional physical layer resources.
Works to establish a network architecture that integrates optical packets and circuits. This laboratory currently verifies technological practicability utilizing its dedicated network test bed. To improve users’ convenience and network reliability, this laboratory is also developing autonomic mechanisms for network resources adjustment and network management
