Holding-Time- and Impairment-Aware Shared Spectrum Allocation in Mixed-Line-Rate Elastic Optical Networks

Cross-phase modulation (XPM) is considered one of the key factors for the quality-of-transmission (QoT) degradation in elastic optical networks (EONs) with mixed line rates (MLRs). Based on the XPM consideration, this paper proposes a holding-time- and impairment-aware shared spectrum allocation ...
