An analytical framework for the performance evaluation of node-and network-wise operation scenarios in elastic optical networks

H Beyranvand, M Maier… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2014 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this paper, we analyze the exact node-and network-wise operation scenarios in elastic
optical networks (EONs). First, the busy/idle patterns of optical spectrum in a stand-alone …

Real-time power control for dynamic optical networks—Algorithms and experimentation

B Birand, H Wang, K Bergman, D Kilper… - IEEE Journal on …, 2014 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Core and aggregation optical networks are remarkably static, despite the emerging dynamic
capabilities of the individual optical devices. This stems from the inability to address optical …

Flexible Optical Networks

JM Simmons - Optical Network Design and Planning, 2014 - Springer
Historically, network technology has largely been “one size fits all”; for example, a transmitter
card generates a single data rate with a specified optical reach. The flexible approaches …

Efficient transport of time-varying IP traffic in flexi-grid optical networks

Ç Tunç, N Akar - 2014 22nd Signal Processing and …, 2014 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Frequency slot width selection in flexi-grid optical networks refers to the process of online
update of the slot width of the channel, according to time-varying traffic demands. Since slot …
