Abstract
We propose a novel network architecture that exploits coarse granular routing
while add/drop operations are done at wavelength granularity. For the proposal,
we introduce a node architecture and a network design algorithm. Numerical
results demonstrate that the proposed architecture’s performance approaches that
of single-layer optical path networks while substantially reducing hardware
scale.
