IEEE Draft Standard for Energy Efficient Dynamic Line Rate Transmission System

Abstract

This standard specifies an energy-efficient, rate 1 and modulation adaptive transmission system designed for the deployment of mixed line rates in optical networks. It introduces the transmission system and provides mechanisms to optimally configure the line rate to efficiently accommodate varying traffic loads while reducing the power consumption.

Scope

This standard specifies an energy-efficient rate-adaptive transmission system that can be used to deploy mixed line rates. This standard introduces the architecture and mechanisms needed to enable the use of an optimal combination of line rates to accommodate the traffic while reducing power consumption.

Purpose

The purpose of this standard is to create a new energy-efficient transmission system.
