Optimization of Router Cost and Consumption in a Point-to-Multipoint Metro-Core Architecture (W2A.45)
Presenter: Mohammad Hosseini, Infinera
We study the router cost and power consumption in a light-tree based architecture with coherent point-to-multipoint (P2MP) transceivers. Significant savings are expected compared to existing P2MP approaches due to router consolidation deeper in the metro-core.
