The current constant growing in traffic demands caused by the popularization of cloud services, mobile and social networks is requiring architectural changes at the underlying networks so as to provide a more highly dynamic connectivity. Cost-effective and energy efficient solutions are also required in flexible network subsystems in order to make available future sustainable networks. In this context, a novel cost-effective and energy-efficient solution DWDM ROADM (D-ROADM) node design has been recently considered to enable optical Metro-Access networks convergence. In this paper, we assess the D-ROADM capabilities in a dynamic ultra-Dense Wavelength Multiplexing (u-DWDM) coherent Ring Network scenario. In particular, the metric Blocking Bandwidth Probability (BBP) vs. Traffic Load Capacity (TLC) has been considered. Our numerical evaluations show that the performance penalty of cost-effective D-ROADM based networks could be reduced to 35% for 62.5 GHz DWDM channels when compared to WSS-based ROADMs. |
