  • Abstract
    Current implementations of GMPLS protocol suite are unaware of optical signal physical impairments and quality of transmission. In this paper, we present an overview of different approaches for implementing QoT estimation and QoT measurements in transparent networks and for encompassing sparse regeneration information in translucent networks.
