Abstract :
Flexible ROADMs for architecture on demand are proposed and investigated, for the first time, which offer DSP-enabled dynamic operations at wavelength, sub-wavelength and orthogonal sub-band levels, continuous add-channel frequency tuneablility, and 10dB drop-channel sensitivity improvements.
