Abstract
Due to the increasing heterogeneity and the growing volume of traffic, telecom backbone networks are going through new innovations and paradigm shift. The wavelength-division multiplexed (WDM) optical networks may cost-effectively support the growing heterogeneity of traffic demands by having mixed line rates (MLR) over different wavelength channels.
