Abstract:
We propose MxM WSS based ROADM architecture that employs main/junction subsystem OXCs and OXC-assisted transponder-bank add/drop. Extensive computer simulations verify that the proposed architecture offers high routing performance regardless of the physical network topology costeffectively.
