Communication networks are evolving fast. They have to adapt to the major trends of today-the rapid increase in traffic volumes, changing character of networks becoming data-centric mainly because of the explosive growth of the Internet, a move to multimedia communication an the never ending demand of customers for mobility. Photonic infrastructure has already become the foundation of modern networks. However, it is still developing fast in both of its segments-transmission links and network nodes. While the transmission capacity of optical fibres has nor been fully utilised yet, optical signal processing that has to be applied in the network nodes to manipulate the huge data streams is still at its embryonic stage of development. One of the projects devoted to the key issues of optical transport is the COST 266 Action "Advanced infrastructure for photonic networks". In this contribution the programme and results so far achieved in the framework of this project will be reviewed from a broader perspective of network evolution.

Propagation of the chirped ultra-short optical pulses in nonlinear lossless optical waveguide is discussed. The nonlinear Schrodinger equation is solved numerically for complex initial conditions using beam propagation method. In order to calculate the stationary peak value of the envelope, an averaging filter was used, and estimated critical value of the chirp parameter was calculated with the use of rational extrapolation algorithm in case of rectangular initial pulse.

A semi-analytical method for wave propagation in dielectric structures is proposed. The method is applied to the treatment of the propagation problems in flat and round optical waveguides with non-uniform, linear and nonlinear permittivity and reflections from linear and nonlinear dielectric layers. In this paper we consider the dielectric structures with either linear or nonlinear permittivity.

All-optical demultiplexing with a signal-bit width conversion function has been experimentally demonstrated using an ultrafast polarization bistable VCSEL. All-optical format conversions (both from RZ to NRZ and vice versa) have also been experimentally demonstrated.

The results of a numerical account of a field of an electromagnetic wave in a ring optical resonator coupled to an optical waveguide in which the pumping signal is propagated are submitted in this work. The dependencies of amplitude of wave field in the ring resonator from factor of division and frequency at different values of losses in the resonator are represented. The opportunity of forming of solitons in the ring resonator in an environ of resonance frequencies at a power level of pumping signal much below threshold one is noted.

Here we describe the propagation of optical pulses produced by the FM-AM conversion due to fiber chromatic dispersion. The investigated optical link is composed of a standard single-mode optical fiber and a dispersion compensating fiber. Impact of dispersion compensating fiber on dispersion supported transmission with a binary signal at the receiver is presented.

We review bi-directional propagation algorithms based upon the free space radiation mode (FSRM) and half-space radiation mode (HSRM) methods and their use in the design of complex, three dimensional, OEIC components. Finally, we address the linking of FD-BPM and fast spectral propagation models to exploit the flexibility of the former and the speed of the latter.

We propose an all-optical analog-to-digital converter that can extract a binary word from a multilevel optical signal during a single bit interval. This optical circuit is constructed using optical limiters whose transmitted power clamps to a fixed maximum level for inputs exceeding a chosen threshold.
