Abstract:Optical backbone networks are required to be highly dynamic in supporting requests with flexible bandwidth granularities to cope with the demands of new broadband wireless and fixed access networks. To provide this flexibility, services are offered by taking requested bandwidth profile into consideration, instead of assigning a fixed amount of bandwidth to each request. New techniques are developed for the resource management of the elastic optical networks to realize services with a specified bandwidth profil… Show more
