In this paper we study an alternate network architecture, called translucent network, to the
fully transparent and fully opaque network architectures. In a translucent wavelength-routed …

Translucent wavelength-division multiplexing optical networks use sparse placement of
regenerators to overcome physical impairments and wavelength contention introduced by …
