This project will study and develop technology for Elastic Optical Networks (EONs). In EONs flexible amounts of spectral bandwidth may be allocated to each data channel without requiring adherence to a fixed wavelength grid. Such an approach is well-suited for supporting a wide range of dynamic traffic demands in a bandwidth-efficient manner. Key enabling technologies, optical arbitrary waveform generation(OAWG) and optical arbitrary waveform measurement (OAWM), will enable elastic optical networking over a large spectrum by dividing the spectrum into spectral slices and dynamically processing information at lower rates compatible with CMOS electronics. The project will leverage these technologies as a basis for innovative hardware and software solutions for EON technology, architectures, protocols, network control and management, system integration, and testbed integration. Advances in the basic architecture and technology for optical networking is important for US competitiveness. The project will work with several US-based industrial organizations as a means of technology transfer. The research results and publications will likely to impact standardization activities of flexible grid networking (e.g. International Telecommunication Union ITU-T SG15 on flex grid). The project will link education and research and serve as a rich platform for crossdisciplinary education in optical and higher-layer networking, and in computer engineering.

该项目将研究和开发弹性光网络（EONs）技术。 在EON中，可以向每个数据信道分配灵活的频谱带宽量，而不需要遵守固定的波长网格。这种方法非常适合于以带宽有效的方式支持广泛的动态业务需求。 关键使能技术，光学任意波形生成（OAWG）和光学任意波形测量（OAWM），将通过将光谱划分为光谱切片并以与CMOS电子器件兼容的较低速率动态处理信息，在大光谱范围内实现弹性光学网络。该项目将利用这些技术作为EON技术、架构、协议、网络控制和管理、系统集成和测试平台集成的创新硬件和软件解决方案的基础。 光网络基本架构和技术的进步对美国的竞争力至关重要。 该项目将与美国的几个工业组织合作，作为技术转让的一种手段。 研究成果和出版物可能会影响灵活网格网络的标准化活动（例如国际电信联盟ITU-T关于灵活网格的第15研究组）。 该项目将连接教育和研究，并作为一个丰富的平台，在光学和高层网络，并在计算机工程的跨学科教育。
