Abstract
It may be critical for future networks to provide wavelength shifting and subcarrier modulation to ensure high-throughput performance.1 Wavelength shifting is important because it enables wavelength reuse, contention resolution and efficient use of the wavelength domain. Similarly, subcarricr modulation is important for data grooming, bandwidth allocation flexibility, con- trol/header information transportation, and access networks.
