Bridging the 6G Gap: Scaling Sustainable ROADM-Based IP-over-WDM via DSCM-Enabled Point-to-Multipoint Designs
Matin Rafiei Forooshani, Farhad Arpanaei, Hamzeh Beyranvand +5
This study compares transponder-based, Point-to-Point, and DSCM-based Point-to-Multipoint (PtMP) access-metro architectures. Findings demonstrate that PtMP IPoWDM significantly opt…
SixGman: An Open-Source Planner for Fixed 6G Hierarchical Optical Access-Core Networks
Matin Rafiei Forooshani, Farhad Arpanaei, Hamzeh Beyranvand +4
This paper introduces SixGman, an open-source optical network planning tool for evaluating access-metro-core aggregation network architectures. The framework integrates traffic gen…
DRL-Based Phase Optimization for O-RIS in Dual-Hop Hard-Switching FSO/RIS-aided RF and UWOC Systems
Aboozar Heydaribeni, Hamzeh Beyranvand, Sahar Eslami
This paper presents a dual-hop hybrid framework that integrates a free-space optical (FSO)/RIS-aided radio frequency (RF) link operating under a hard-switching protocol as the firs…
Synergizing Hyper-accelerated Power Optimization and Wavelength-Dependent QoT-Aware Cross-Layer Design in Next-Generation Multi-Band EONs
Farhad Arpanaei, Mahdi Ranjbar Zefreh, Yanchao Jiang +12
The extension of elastic optical networks (EON) to multi-band transmission (MB-EON) shows promise in enhancing spectral efficiency, throughput, and long-term cost-effectiveness for…
