Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for providing bandwidth-on-demand telecommunications services over next-generation optical transport networks (NG-OTN). One embodiment of a system providing bandwidth-on-demand services includes a next-generation optical transport network (NG-OTN) having an intelligent control plane (ICP) and new-generation synchronous optical network (NG-SONET) capabilities. A next-generation operation support subsystem (NG-OSS) is communicatively coupled to the NG-OTN. The NG-OTN and the NG-OSS are configured to provide the bandwidth-on-demand services.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A system, comprising: a transport network configured to provide at least one bandwidth-on-demand service; at least one service logic, each service logic configured to define one of at least one procedure for managing said bandwidth-on-demand services; an operation support subsystem communicatively coupled to said transport network; and a service logics engine associated with said operation support subsystem and having access to said at least one servic…
