Reference Scenarios for Transport Networks Research

Results of network planning and performance evaluation studies carried out by different research groups are only comparable if they are based on the same or at least similar network scenarios. Therefore, the - MultiTeraNet project partners T-Systems Nova, Marconi ONDATA GmbH and the University of Stuttgart have defined following three different optical transport network reference scenarios.

The reference scenarios are defined in terms of network and traffic parameters. Detailed information on each of the networks including cable length and traffic matrices as well as sample dimensioning results can be found in the appendix.
