Optimal network provisioning is the process of equipping the network with the devices and resources needed to support all traffic demands while minimizing the network cost. Optical...
— Recent advances in telecommunication networks have allowed WDM to emerge as a viable solution to the ever-increasing demands of the Internet. Because these networks carry large...
Recent advances in telecommunication networks have allowed WDM to emerge as a viable solution to the ever-increasing demands of the Internet. In a wavelength-routed optical network...
: With the increase of the number of wavelengths per fiber waveband switching has been proposed to decrease the number of switching ports in optical nodes. Another concept that of ...
We describe a WDM-based optical access network architecture for providing broadband Internet services. The architecture uses a passive collection and distribution network and a co...
