Bandwidth fragmentation, a serious issue in elastic optical networks (EONs), can be
suppressed by proper management in order to enhance the accommodated traffic demands …

The rapid growth in communications and internet has changed our way of life, and our
requirement for communication bandwidth. Optical networks can enable us to meet the …

Spectrally/spatially flexible optical networks (SS-FONs) are a promising solution to future
traffic requirements in optical backbone networks. SS-FONs exploit the spatial dimension to …

This work proposes a physical layer impairment-aware routing, modulation, spectrum, and
core allocation optimization framework in elastic optical networks with multi-core fibers. The …

Compared with traditional wavelength division optical network, elastic optical network (EON)
divides the network spectrum into smaller spectrum slots to improve the spectrum utilization …

Recently, multi-core and multi-mode fibers (MCMMFs) have been considered to overcome
physical limitations and increase transport capacity. They are combined with elastic optical …

Elastic optical networks (EONs) provide flexibility to assign wide range of spectral resources
to the connection requests. In this manuscript, we address two issues related to spectrum …

The satellite-assisted Internet of Things (IoT) communication is considered a key component
of the 6G network, and low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite is the leading choice of IoT-related …

The space division multiplexing elastic optical network (SDM-EONs) can effectively supply
the large-capacity for the current optical network. If a link failure occurs, it will bring huge …

The concept of elasticity has been proposed in the design of next generation optical
networks in tackling the problem of efficient utilization of network resources and increasing …
