Enforcing QoT via PCE in Multi Bit-Rate WSONs

Due to network upgrades, in centralized wavelength switched optical networks (WSONs), path computation element (PCE) has to guarantee the coexistence of different bit-rates in the same WSON. In particular, considering cross-phase modulation (XPM) is a challenging issue in multi bit-rate networks. In...

Zusammenfassung:Due to network upgrades, in centralized wavelength switched optical networks (WSONs), path computation element (PCE) has to guarantee the coexistence of different bit-rates in the same WSON. In particular, considering cross-phase modulation (XPM) is a challenging issue in multi bit-rate networks. In this paper, we propose three schemes based on PCE to provision lightpaths in multi bit-rate (e.g., 10-40-100-Gb/s) WSONs.
