DRL-Assisted Dynamic QoT-Aware Service Provisioning in Multi-Band Elastic Optical Networks
Paper in proceeding, 2024

We propose a DRL-assisted approach for service provisioning in multi-band elastic optical networks. Our simulation environment uses an accurate QoT estimator based on the GN/EGN model. Results show that the proposed approach reduces request blocking by 50\% compared with heuristics from the literature.
