Impairment-aware optimization strategies to dimension optical transport networks with minimal regeneration requirements

Abstract—Physical impairments restrain the maximum length a signal can travel without regeneration. The quality of a signal in optical wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) networks must thus be restored with opto-electro-optical (OEO) regeneration in order to reach its destination. As OEO regenera...
