Abstract
We focus on the spectrally efficient Nyquist-WDM concept and quantify the effect of physical layer design parameters on the network level performance. Case studies are conducted on a realistic reference network under different traffic demand settings and trade-offs with respect to the utilized spectrum and the required transponders are identified.
