Document:
benefits come from multilayer interworking mechanisms enabling electronic switching technologies (IP/MPLS, OTN, etc) to directly control the bandwidth of the Bandwidth Variable Transponders (BVT) for optical bandwidth optimization purposes.
• Transport systems enabling flexible transmission and switching beyond 400Gbps per channel.
• Control plane architecture for multilayer and multidomain elastic optical networks.
• Multilayer network optimization tools enabling both off-line planning and on-line network re-optimization in elastic optical networks.
The intention is that the IDEALIST network architecture will be easily industrialised. Therefore, feasibility studies and experimental implementation and demonstration of prototypes will be key activities, as well. IDEALIST will also feed the collaboration with other Projects and the submission of contributions to ITU-T, OIF, IETF, thus reinforcing European position in standardization bodies.
