Abstract :
The introduction of an optical transparent layer in the path layer of a transport network is a crucial issue for the future broadband network. In this paper the simulated transmission performance of an optical layer in a geographical area is reported assuming existing optical technology. The presented results assess the feasibility of such an approach
