Abstract :
The field of optical communications is undergoing a transformation from analog to digital. Advanced signal processing techniques which have been widely used in wireless communications and local access loops are now being applied to long haul optical transmission networks. In this paper, we discuss the implications of such transformations and postulate a new paradigm for optical transport in future high speed optical backbone networks.
