Abstract :
Given the introduction of coherent 100G systems has provided enough fiber capacity to meet data traffic growth in the near term, enhancing network efficiency will be service providers´ high priority. Adding flexibility at the optical layer is a key step to increasing network efficiency, and both spectral and spatial functionality will be considered in next generation optical networks along with advanced network management to effectively harness the new capabilities.
