Link Design and Legacy Amplifier Limitation in Flex-Grid Optical Networks

Flex-grid technology is an effective means to improve the spectral efficiency of optical communication. For a given amplifier spectral bandwidth, it gives rise to the increase in the number of optical channels as it reduces channel spacing. Therefore, in order to reap full benefits from the flex-gri...
