Abstract
Progress in hollow-core fiber technology may lead to deployments in regional/long-haul networks. This paper proposes an optimal method to selectively upgrade spans of mesh networks with this fiber type. Simulation results show improvements in capacity/reach are achievable while minimizing the amount of hollow-core fiber used.
