First Demonstration of Dynamic Deployment of SDN-enabled WDM Virtual Network Topologies (VNTs) over SDM networks

We present the dynamic deployment of logical WDM VNTs by deploying virtual links between ROADM/OXC nodes using spatial channels provided by SDM networks. We propose a cloud-native WDM over SDM (WDMoSDM) SDN orchestrator that is responsible for the lifecycle management of the SDN-enabled WDM VNTs.
