Seamless convergence between wired and wireless systems is indispensable for 5G/IoT networks by the development of not only advanced wireless systems but also the innovation of the wired networks. In particular, to attain the features on high throughput, low latency, and huge capacity on connected devices, stringent and flexible management of quality of services is demanded in the network side. In the scenario, software-defined network and network function virtualization will play important roles in the resource management as well as slicing multi-services on the network. PHY and L2 layers should be performed for energy efficient and low footprint subsystems like a highly efficient switch. This workshop discusses the function of the optical and network technologies in future wireless access networks.
