In the context a multiflow application optimizing the operation of superchannel transponders, this study compares different candidates for MA-M Wavelength Selective Switch used as colorless, direct
Future 5G deployments will embrace a multitude of novel technologies that will significantly change the air interface, system architecture, and service delivery platforms.
Benefits of different channel grid configurations (ITU 50 GHz grid, 12.5 GHz grid, gridless) in a US network are analyzed for MLR/elastic networks, transparent network/network with high spectral ef
The impact of the polarisation format is studied in N x 40 Gbit/s submarine systems based on distributed Raman amplification including robustness to polarisation mode dispersion (PMD).
We evaluate the benefits of data-rate adaptive transponders featuring granularities finer than 50 Gb/s to better fit transmission distances for three WDM networks, in terms of maximum capacity and
In automatically restorable optical networks, the control plane has to detect a failure and send traffic through recovery paths.
This paper describes the need for a business-driven network planning process and the network vision of Lucent Technologies in a fast-changing, almost exploding, world of telecommunications, At the
In this paper we analyze the impact of introducing electrical OTN switching on top a WDM layer in two 100Gb/s optical networks.
Software Defined Networking (SDN) has been called the next revolution in the networking industry.
This paper introduces two benign failure models for shared memory in distributed systems, crash-omission and crash-eventual.
