Cost Comparison of Networks Using Traditional 10 and 40 Gb/s Transponders Versus OFDM Transponders

OFDM allows flexible adjustment of transmission data rate according to channel properties. We propose to use OFDM transponders and calculate the cost at which OFDM networks result in lower CAPEX compared to traditional networks.
