(CNIT) Optical Bandwidth Expansion

Proposers

• Mohammad Ismaeel (CNIT)
• Andrea Sgambelluri (CNIT)
• Nicola Sambo (CNIT)

Description

Experimental validation of the enhancement of an optical band in multi-layer optical network environment. This enhancement will allow to enlarge an existing optical bandwidth, moving the upper frequency in case of available spectrum.

Demo

An OFC demo as been carried out including emulated devices provided by the different involved partners. [Ref-1].
