Spatial-division multiplexing (SDM) and band-division multiplexing (BDM) have emerged as
solutions to expand the capacity of existing C-band wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) …

We investigate quality of transmission (QoT) estimation in a multi-band transmission
scenario, including a wideband description of the frequency-dependent physical layer …

Ultra-wideband transmission utilizesbandwidths beyond the standard C-band to enable
significant network capacity upgrades. Upgrading the standard C-band to a C+ L-band …

We experimentally test the accuracy of a quality of transmission estimator (QoT-E) within a
laboratory flex-grid flex-rate framework, considering eight multi-vendor transceivers (TRXs) …

Wideband optical transmission presents an appealing solution to network throughput and
capacity requirements, improving existing network architectures with minimally invasive …

Coherent transmission technology is widely diffused in backbone optical uncompensated
transmission (UT) network segments. In metro and access network segments instead …

We investigate the generation of nonlinear interference (NLI) within two disaggregated
transmission scenarios, each considering a chain of three distinct optical line systems that …

This thesis focuses on improvements and development of analytical models and artificial
intelligence (AI) implementation for optical network design, planning and controlling based …
