In WDM optical networks, the physical layer impairments (PLIs) and their significance
depend on network type-opaque, translucent, or transparent; the reach-access, metro, or …

Since light-paths are the basic connections in wavelength routed networks, their effective
establishment is very important. Routing and Wavelength Assignment (RWA) techniques …

GMPLS-controlled all-optical networks are the promise to handle the increasing volume of IP
traffic. The GMPLS routing and signaling protocols, mainly OSPF and RSVP, work in such a …

In a wavelength-routed optical network, the signal remains in the optical domain over the
entire route (lightpath) from source to destination node. Thus, while propagating through the …

Recentemente, as redes óticas têm evoluído de opacas para transparentes. Isso significa,
portanto, que o sinal emitido por uma fonte permanecerá no domínio ótico até chegar ao …
