Practical Perspective on Wavelength Assignment Strategies in Optical Networks: a Survey
نویسنده
چکیده
In optical network, it is necessary to determine the route and assign a wavelength that will be used on all links along the route. This paper focuses the specific problem of wavelength assignment. Our experimental study deals with analysis of wavelength assignment strategies in optical networks. Simulation results show that first fit and random fit wavelength assignment strategies are the most practical, as these are simple to implement.

A Novel Protection Guaranteed, Quality of Transmission Aware Routing and Wavelength Assignment Algorithm for All-optical Networks
Transparent All Optical Networks carry huge traffic and any link failure can cause the loss of gigabits of data; hence protection and its guarantee becomes necessary at the time of failure. Many protection schemes were presented in the literature, but none of them speaks about protection guarantee. Also, in all optical networks, due to absence of regeneration capabilities, the physical layer i...
متن کاملA Practical Approach for Routing and Wavelength Assignment in Large Wavelength-Routed Optical Networks
We consider large optical networks in which nodes employ wavelength-routing switches which enable the establishment of wavelength-division-multiplexed (WDM) channels, called lightpaths, between node pairs. We propose a practical approach to solve routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) of lightpaths in such networks. A large RWA problem is partitioned into several smaller subproblems, each of w...
متن کاملExperimental Analysis of Wavelength Assignment Strategies in Optical Networks
In survivable optical networks, wavelength assignment is a major concern than assigning routes to the light path requests. Earlier wavelength assignment algorithm suffers from unbalanced utilization of wavelengths that leads to blocking probability for any connection request. This paper analyzes the performance of the wavelength assignment strategies to reduce the network block rate of the requ...
متن کاملRouting and wavelength assignment strategies in optical networks
We consider the routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) problem on wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) networks without wavelength conversion. When the physical network and required connections are given, RWA is the problem to select a suitable path and wavelength among the many possible choices for each connection such that no two paths using the same wavelength pass through the same link. ...
