networks, emphasizing the need to expand transmission capacity. To overcome the …

Abstract Space Division Multiplexing (SDM) appears as a promising solution to overcome
the capacity limits of single-mode optical fibers. In Flex-Grid/SDM optical networks, nodes …

In this paper, we present a comprehensive model to address three-dimensional resource
assignment (3D-RA) in space division multiplexing elastic optical networks using few-mode …

In this work, efficient routing, spectrum, and core allocation (RSCA) techniques are proposed
for spatial division multiplexed (SDM) elastic optical networks (EONs) utilizing multicore …

Multicore fibers (MCFs) are one of the main technological enablers for space-division
multiplexing. In principle, MCFs could scale the fiber capacity by a factor equal to the …

This work proposes a physical layer impairment-aware routing, modulation, spectrum, and
core allocation optimization framework in elastic optical networks with multi-core fibers. The …

In today's optical networks, the capacity supported by a single optical fiber is far higher than
the demand between source–destination pairs. Thus, to take advantage of the installed …

In this work, we compare the performance of several space division multiplexing (SDM)
network realizations utilizing different types of transmission media. In this regard, we first …

In space division multiplexing (SDM) systems, the spatial dimensions can be divided into
one or several group (s). Spatial dimensions in the same group can be jointly switched …
