Fast wavelength switching DP-OFDM transceiver in a 5-node 800km coherent OBS network

Fast wavelength switching OFDM transceiver enables the coherent reception of 2-burst channels within a 1dB penalty after 800km transmission. Burst detection and variable path-history compensation are performed using inherent OFDM synchronization symbols and cyclic prefix.
