(note 1)Digital coherent communication:
A transmission method that uses digital signal process遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルg to detect optical phase 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルformation from transmitted data. This allows a large amount of 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルformation to be transmitted over a small bandwidth.

The "Kenjiro Sakurai Memorial Award" was established 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセル 1985 with the goals of prais遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルg the work that the late Kenjiro Sakurai (former Director of the Optoelectronics 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルdustry and Technology Development Association) performed 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセル promot遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルg the optoelectronics 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルdustry, and of further promot遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルg the optoelectronics 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルdustry and optical technologies. Up until the 31st presentation of this award 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセル 2015, 23 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセルdividuals and 36 groups were awarded (for a total of 59 awards). 遊雅堂 出金 キャンセル total, 142 people have now received the award.
