Abstract
Elastic optical networks (EON) based on OFDM/SCFDM subbands are proposed in this paper. We verify the ROADM and switching functionality for individual subband on optical superchannel that consists of multi subbands. 400 Gb/s optical superchannel multicasting and flexible superchannel conversion that covers the whole C-band are experimentally demonstrated.
