We compare the networking merit of two possible multiplexing techniques on top of
wavelength division multiplexing to enlarge transmission capacity: the band division …

We compare S+ C+ L link power optimization based on the fast and simple heuristic balance
of linear and nonlinear noises versus more complex ML-based techniques to estimate …

We propose an efficient three-step amplifier configuration algorithm to improve and maintain
the generalized signal-to-noise ratio (GSNR) performance of dynamic C+ L-band links in …

In the direction of disaggregated and cognitive optical networks, this work proposes and
experimentally tests a vendor-agnostic optical line controller architecture capable of …

Optical wideband communication systems aim at transmitting over several, if not all, of the
low-loss windows of single-mode fibre, ie the O-, E-, S-, C-, and L-band. Recently, there has …

This paper serves to highlight the gains in SNR margin and/or data capacity that can be
achieved through a proper optimization of the transceiver parameters, for example, launch …

Performance optimization literature in optical networks predominantly consists of single
objective optimization studies while often in practice multiple performance goals are to be …

The different segments of optical transport networks—including metro, regional, and long-
haul—will have to scale to accommodate growing capacity requirements. In metro networks …

We investigate the optimization of routing, modulation format adaptation, spectral and
launch power assignment as a means of improving the utilization of limited network …

A spatial channel network (SCN) is a novel optical network architecture targeting the space
division multiplexing (SDM) era where the optical layer is explicitly evolved into the …
