In elastic optical networks, bandwidth fragmentation refers to the existence of non-aligned
and non-contiguous available subcarrier slots in the set of all subcarrier slots. Since …

This paper demonstrates a new hierarchical Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation algorithm using
the Russian Doll Model (RDM) to allocate bandwidth for intra-Optical Network Unit (ONU) in …

Transport service providers need control and optimization strategies for wavelength
management, network provisioning, restoration and protection, allowing them to define and …

Elastic optical networks emerge as a reliable backbone platform covering the next‐
generation connectivity requirements. It consists of advanced enabling components that …

In this paper, we design a two‐step scheduling algorithm to support multiple bandwidth
allocation policies for upstream channel access in an Ethernet passive optical network. The …

A flexible orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing optical network enables the bandwidth
to be flexibly changed by changing the number of sub-carriers. We assume that users …

With the emergence of differentiated service applications, optical access networks have
developed as the most promising reliable technology for broadband access systems. One of …

Significant growth in the Internet traffic and emerging converged-services such as high-
