In the realm of emergency disaster relief, it is paramount to attain a thorough comprehension
of the semantic information associated with the local disaster scene for strategic rescue path …

C+ L-bands elastic optical networks (EONs) cope with growing traffic demands by
leveraging the C and L bands of deployed optical fibers. In this scenario, the inter-band …

In this paper, we analyze the impact of different node and link architectures (NLA) on the
performance of multiband elastic optical networks (MB-EONs). These NLAs are widely used …

Abstract Space division multiplexing (SDM) technology and band division multiplexing
(BDM) are potential candidates for the bandwidth extension of the existing optical transport …

Multi-band, especially C+ L-band, elastic optical networks (EONs) provide a promising
networking infrastructure to increase the capacity of networks for alleviating the pressure on …

The co-route optical fibers, comprising both co-cable and co-trench fibers, pose a significant
potential risk to network service quality assurance by operators. They are incapable of …

Adopting multiband transmission in optical networks can cost-effectively increase network
capacity without deploying new fibre. In this paper, we focus on the solutions explored by the …
