Metro Networks Based on Multi-Band Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing Signals
Description

 

The general objective of this project consists in demonstrating the new paradigm related to the increase of the flexibility and granularity of the transmission capacity in metropolitan (metro) optical networks. Particularly, the implementation of metro networks based on high data-rate multi-band orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing signals employing wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) is analysed and demonstrated as an excellent solution to provide, simultaneously, high flexibility in capacity allocation, high spectral efficiency and the possibility of upgrading the network capacity while keeping the system architecture almost unchanged.
