Optimization in Optical Communication Networks: Issues and Challenges
نویسندگان
چکیده
The transmission capacity of a link in today’s optical networks has increased extensively due to wavelengthdivision-multiplexing (WDM) technology. Optical wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) networking technologies have delivered unprecedented terabit level bandwidth scalability over fiber-optic substrates. Optical-transmission techniques have been researched for quite some time. The field has matured enormously over this time, number of prototypes and testbeds have been built, several books have been written, a large number of startups have been shaped, and optical WDM technology is being deployed in the marketplace at a very rapid rate. The objective of this paper is to summarize the basic opticalnetworking approaches, including bandwidth optimization in optical networks. Various network architectures for optical networking are compared and discussed.

Incremental adaptive networks implemented by free space optical (FSO) communication
The aim of this paper is to fully analyze the effects of free space optical (FSO) communication links on the estimation performance of the adaptive incremental networks. The FSO links in this paper are described with two turbulence models namely the Log-normal and Gamma-Gamma distributions. In order to investigate the impact of these models we produced the link coefficients using these distribu...
متن کاملOptimal Distributed Generation (DG) Allocation in Distribution Networks using an Improved Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) Algorithm
Abstract: The development of distributed generation (DGs) units in recent years have created challenges in the operation of power grids, especially distribution networks. One of these issues is the optimal allocation (location and capacity) of these units in distribution networks. In this thesis, a method based on the improved ant colony optimization algorithm is presented to solve the problem ...
متن کاملImpacts of the Negative-exponential and the K-distribution modeled FSO turbulent links on the theoretical and simulated performance of the distributed diffusion networks
Merging the adaptive networks with the free space optical (FSO) communication technology is a very interesting field of research because by adding the benefits of this technology, the adaptive networks become more efficient, cheap and secure. This is due to the fact that FSO communication uses unregistered visible light bandwidth instead of the overused radio spectrum. However, in spite of all ...
