TRAFFIC GROOMING

Traffic-grooming is a kind of multiplexing in optical signal by packing low speed traffic streams into higher-speed streams.

There is a significant advantage to groom the traffic.
1.Reduction of wavelengths : If each demand requires a light-path exclusively, we need a lot of wavelengths to be allocated.
2.Reduction of costs for installing WDMs and operating networks
