Rearrangeable Route Assignment for Flexible-Grid OXC-Clos Networks
With the surge in bandwidth demand, optical cross-connects (OXCs) face scalability issues. The flexible-grid OXC-Clos network composed of small-scale OXC modules offers a scalable solution. However, strictly nonblocking (SNB) and wide-sense nonblocking (WSNB) designs suffer from high costs. To remarkably reduce the net...
