Abstract

We consider the benefits of using tunable transceivers for reducing the required number of ports in WDM/TDM optical networks. We show that tunable transceivers can be used to effi-ciently “groom” subwavelength traffic and significantly reduce the number of ports compared to the fixed tuned case. We provide a new formulation for this “tunable grooming” problem and develop algorithms for designing such networks.
