Translucent optical WDM networks for the next-generation backbone networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper proposes an alternate approach to fully transparent and fully opaque optical networks for operating a wavelength routed optical network. In this paper, the architecture of the regeneration node that performs sparse regeneration (or translucency) is discussed. The regeneration demands generated from call blocking and signal quality requirements are addressed. Two implementation strategies for incorporating sparse regeneration are introduced and their relative merits are studied.

متن کاملPath Protection in Translucent WDM Optical Networks
Translucent WDM networks are receiving attention as longhaul back bone networks. One important aspect of such networks that has not received attention is the possibility of cycles in the path of a translucent network. This is the first work on implementing path protection in translucent networks, considering the possibility of cycles. Two formulations have been proposed here for dynamic lightpa...
