  • Abstract
    We discuss survivability considerations for multi-carrier-based elastic optical networks, focusing on the multi-carrier transponder (MCT). We explain the necessity of subcarrier restoration that can recover multi-carrier connections using backup sub-channels. An initial evaluation shows our restoration scheme improves transponder reliability.
