Description

The overall Metro-Haul objective is to architect and design cost-effective, energy-efficient, agile and programmable metro networks that are scalable for 5G access and future requirements, encompassing the design of all-optical metro nodes (including full compute and storage capabilities), which interface effectively with both 5G access and multi-Tbit/s elastic core networks.
This document provides the detailed candidate Metro-Haul architectures defined to comply with the functional architecture requirements in D2.2. Additionally, it describes the network design methods developed to plan and optimize metro networks based on these architectures, and provides early comparative performance evaluations of the proposed architectures.
