Multi-Granular OXC Node Based on Lambda-Group Technology
نویسندگان
چکیده
We develop a new optical switching fabric with multigranularity grooming based on our lambda-group model, as well as algorithms that can handle dynamic environments. The proposed fabric based on a new multi-granular grooming scheme presents the distinctive approach of assigning different contiguous groups of granularities to different paths for effective treatment. Results and figures from experiments show that the particular partitioning approach not only is helpful to port reduction significantly, but also improves the SNR of signal and blocking performance for dynamic connection requests. key words: multi-granularity, traffic grooming, GMPLS, lambda-group, OXC

Dimensioning of Multi-Granular Optical Networks
We present an ILP model for dimensioning optical networks that support wavelength and sub-wavelength switching. Results indicate significant reductions in cost and node-complexity with such multi-granular networks. Introduction Future networks will likely consist of some form of alloptical networking, implying data remains in optical form end-to-end. An apparent difficulty is that a single infr...
متن کاملPerformance analysis and dimensioning of multi-granular optical networks
Recent years have demonstrated the limited scalability of electronic switching to realize transport networks. In response, all-optical switching has been identified as a candidate solution to enable high-capacity networking in the future. One of the fundamental challenges is to efficiently support a wide range of traffic patterns, and thus emerges the need for equipment that is both practical a...
متن کاملProtection in Multi-Granular Waveband Networks
As the number wavelengths in WDM systems continue to increase, the switching fabric of optical cross connects (OXCs) becomes increasingly complex. This complexity can be reduced by introducing multi-granular optical cross-connects (MG-OXC) into the network. A MG-OXCs is capable of switching an entire group of wavelengths through a single switch port, thereby reducing the number of switching por...
متن کاملOptical Node Architectures That Utilize Dedicated Add/Drop Switches to Realize Colorless, Directionless and Contentionless Capability
This paper proposes optical node architectures for the single-layer optical cross-connect (OXC) and hierarchical OXC (HOXC) that utilize dedicated add/drop switches for originating/terminating traffic at a node. For both single-layer OXC and HOXC, three architectures with different restrictions on add/drop capabilities are presented. The performance of the proposed architectures is compared thr...
متن کاملPerformance Evaluation and Experiment of a Configuration Algorithm for Three-Stage Multi-Granularity Optical Cross-Connects
We study the configuration issue of three-stage multigranularity optical cross-connects (MG-OXC) for the dynamic traffic model in all-optical networks. From the single node point of view, we propose a configuration algorithm to configure different granularity crossconnects for arrival sub-requests with different traffic types and bandwidths. The performance of the configuration algorithm is eva...
