The operation of multidomain and multivendor EONs can be achieved by interoperable sliceable bandwidth variable transponders (S-BVTs), a GMPLS/BGP-LS-based control plane, and a planning tool. The control plane is extended to include the control of S-BVTs and elastic cross connects, which combine a large port-count fiber-switch (optical backplane) and bandwidth-variable wavelength-selective switches,...
Although there is perhaps an acceptance that EON has benefits, there is a debate about whether a full flexgrid implementation is required to achieve those benefits. Current industry debate addressed in this paper relates to when is the most appropriate time for carriers to: (a) install flexgrid ready components, and (b) enable them and start using the technology.
Integrated DWDM ports in routers reduce the CAPEX investment, but control plane complexity is increased as the IP transponder becomes part of the optical domain. This work demonstrates the control plane interoperability between the IP and the optical vendors.
Elastic Optical Networking (EON) is a solution that promises to improve infrastructure utilisation by implementing flexible spectrum allocation with small spectrum slots instead of the rigid 50-GHz fixed grid of current DWDM deployments. This new EON flexible grid supports Bandwidth Variable Transponders (BVT) that can tune their bit rate and bandwidth dynamically with a trade off between reach and...
