  • Abstract
    We numerically analyze a flexgrid metro network scenario identifying the requirements for BRAS centralization. A cost-effective S-BVT architecture based on MB-OFDM and DD with DSP-enabled software-defined flexible/adaptive capabilities is proposed and experimentally evaluated for supporting multiple 10Gb/s connections.
