Hierarchical Routing with QoS Constraints in Optical Transport Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Optical Transport Networks (OTN) with automatical switching capabilities are named ASON. Hierarchical routing is required in the ASON recommendations to achieve scalability. Basically, hierarchical routing consists of three main components, an aggregation scheme, an update policy and a routing algorithm. This paper proposes a new network structure focusing on these three components. We propose a new aggregation scheme; an update policy based on a threshold value; and we also extend an already proposed routing mechanism to be applied to a hierarchical network. Main skill of this routing mechanism is to reduce the connection blocking increase because of selecting paths based on inaccurate routing information. This inaccuracy is introduced both by the aggregation process and by the update policy.

Improving Quality of Service Routing in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks Using OLSR
Mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) are constructed by mobile nodes without access point. Since MANET has certain constraints, including power shortages, an unstable wireless environment and node mobility, more power-efficient and reliable routing protocols are needed. The OLSR protocol is an optimization of the classical link state algorithm. OLSR introduces an interesting concept, the multipoint r...

In this paper, a new traffic engineering-capable routing and wavelength assignment scheme is proposed to efficiently handle LSP and lightpath setup requests with different QoS requirements on modern multi-layer (fully optical core and time-division multiplexed edge) transport networks. The objectives of the proposed algorithm are to minimize the rejection probability by maximizing the network l...

متن کاملA hierarchical routing approach for optical transport networks
Although the Automatically Switched Optical Networks (ASON) specifications strongly recommend a hierarchical network architecture for these networks, this is still an open issue. The hierarchical network concept involves several mechanisms mainly related with signalling and routing, such as the aggregation scheme, the dissemination process, the updating policy and the routing algorithms. The ex...
