Abstract :
We demonstrate the importance of considering physical impairments in waveband-based optical networks. We propose and evaluate an Impairment-Aware waveband-routing and waveband-assignment (IA-RWBA) algorithm achieving significant improvement in both impairment satisfaction rate and total network cost.
