Abstract
A comprehensive analysis of the long-term benefits of deploying point-to-multipoint transceivers in metro networks, taking into account the expected evolution of transceiver technology, is reported. Simulation results obtained over a reference network show that the savings over point-to-point transceivers
can be maintained at approximately 35% for a wide range of traffic loads, highlighting the long-term cost-effectiveness of adopting point-to-multipoint transceivers.
