Inhalt:
We compare the networking benefits of Ideal Single-Channel Digital-Back-Propagation (ISCDBP) vs. Lightpath Regeneration as Quality-of-Transmission enhancing techniques. By analyzing three different topologies, we show that ISC-DBP has the potential to substantially reduce the number of required regenerators in all-optical networks.
