Power Management of Optoelectronic Interfaces for Dynamic Optical Networks
01 January 2011
We propose a protocol enhancement to manage the power state of optoelectronic interfaces in automatically reconfigurable optical networks. For dynamic traffic scenarios 64% of energy savings have been estimated for the optoelectronic interfaces. OCIS codes: (000.0000) General; (000.0000) General [8-pt. type.
