(wavelength contention)
Transponder can be
remotely tuned to any

Power transients a challenge for transparent optical
networks
Optical power transients
impact surviving channels if other channels fail due to fiber or equipment outages
can propagate and increase along link
Issues, if transients are not controlled properly:
Best case: Short error bursts (may impact protection paths if working fails).
Typical impact: Outages while power control converges (may be minutes).
Worst case: Permanent instability of power levels in network.
Example: fiber cut or re-routing by control plane
Multiple channels
fail or are switched
Transient builds up

Coherent technology offers several
advantages
Superior reach performance
Highest PMD tolerance
Simple, dispersion compensation
free installation
Only coherent 40G/100G
technology secures the upgrade
to 100G, and makes full use of

Summary
WDM removes capacity bottle-necks in mobile and fixed
backhauling networks
WDM has lowest latency, needed for LTE backhauling
For core network, converged packet and OTN switches use
WDM technology for unlimited capacity: P-OTS
WDM networks can provide a very high degree of freedom using
colorless, directionless, and contentionless ROADM technology
Moving from 10G to 40G, 100G and beyond per wavelength
decouples cost from bandwidth for future capacity growth
Meshed WDM networks need careful transient control for reliable
operation
GMPLS control plane is used for efficient multi-layer service
provisioning and restoration
