Abstract
A method and system is provided that is capable of controlling transmit power to achieve a desired OSNR at a receive endpoint. The system utilizes the fact that the aggregate power for a plurality of channels is controllable between a transmission point and a receive point in the network, and uses this characteristic to coarsely adjust transmission powers in the network to achieve desired OSNR results.
