Shared-Protected Backup Paths Assignment with Mode Group Division Multiplexing in Optical Networks
Jiaheng Xiong, Qiaolun Zhang, Ruikun Wang +3
We evaluate the resource efficiency of Mode Group Division Multiplexing (MGDM) with shared path protection (SPP) in optical networks. On our case studies, SPP with MGDM obtains sig…
