Periodic reconfiguration of the virtual topology in transparent optical networks has been recently investigated as a mechanism to more efficiently adapt the network to predictable periodic traffic variations along the day or week. The scheduling of periodic reconfigurations should consider the trade-off between a lower network cost obtained through better resource allocation, and the undesired traffic...
This paper proposes a new algorithm called Integrated Multicast Waveband Routing and Grooming (IMWRG) in optical networks. We first present the single-hop, multi-hop and hybrid multicast waveband grooming policies, and then develop the multicast layered auxiliary graph including one virtual topology layer and multiple waveband-plane layers to support the effective multicast waveband routing and grooming...
This paper addresses offline virtual topology design in transparent optical networks under given periodic traffic. We call this planning problem ldquoScheduled Virtual Topology Designrdquo. Two problem variants are considered: for a network based on non-reconfigurable equipment and for a network based on reconfigurable equipment. Two MILP (Mixed Integer Linear Program) formulations are proposed, one...
We propose a linear formulation for traffic routing in optical networks after the virtual topology design (VTD). The formulation maximizes the amount of traffic the network is able to accept, through minimizing the residual capacity in established lightpaths. The results suggest that it is feasible to preserve enough open capacity to avoid disruption of connections and blocking of future traffic demands...
This paper investigates offline planning and scheduling in transparent optical networks for a given periodic traffic demand. The main objective is to minimize the number of transceivers needed which make up for the main network cost. We call this problem ldquoScheduled Virtual Topology Designrdquo and consider two variants: non-reconfigurable and reconfigurable equipment. We formulate both problems...
We propose an improved postponed lightpath teardown (PLT) strategy by introducing a lightpath splitting mechanism in multi-layer optical networks. Results show that the proposed strategy achieves higher utilizations of both wavelength-links and transceivers under different scenarios of load and transceiver number, and significantly reduce the blocking probability (CBP).
In this paper, we propose a new heuristic algorithm, protection based on survivable integrated auxiliary graph (PSIAG), to tolerate the single-link failure in waveband switching optical networks. The survivable integrated auxiliary graph (SIAG) contains single virtual topology layer and multiple waveband-plane layers, and it can well solve the routing and waveband assignment. In PSIAG, we can well...
In the wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) optical networks, user's requirement is much less (in Mbps range) than the capacity of a wavelength channel (in Gbps range) and number of wavelength channels is limited in a fiber due to several constraints. Each wavelength channel between end nodes requires a pair of transmitter and receiver for digital to optical conversion. In order to decrease the...
In this paper, we study the waveband switching technique in WDM optical networks and propose a novel Routing Algorithm based on Integrated Auxiliary Graph (RAIAG) to save the switching ports in optical cross-connect. The IAG is compared of the single virtual topology layer and multiple waveband-plane layers, and it can well solve the problem of routing and waveband assignment. In RA-IAG, we use the...
