Experimental Validation of an Elastic Low-Complex OFDM-Based BVT for Flexi-Grid Metro Networks

Cost-effective rate/bandwidth variable transponder (BVT) based on DSB DD-OFDM using low-complexity DSP is proposed for flexi-grid MAN. Elastic capabilities are experimentally evaluated, for transmitting 12.5GHz channels at variable rate between 5Gb/s and 10Gb/s along optical path from 45km to 195km.
