Dynamic Multipoint-to-Multipoint Optical Networking with SDN-Controlled Flexible Digital Subcarrier Multiplexing
SDN control of digital subcarrier multiplexing is presented for optical multipoint-to-multipoint connectivity using extended spectrum and subcarrier assignment. A dedicated YANG model supports new data plane features introduced in this work. Provisioning is validated with NETCONF agents and physical-layer emulation with per-subcarrier digital signal processing. ©2025 The Author(s)
