Double Link Failure Protection using a Single P-cycle
نویسندگان
چکیده
Internet is powered by the world wide optical network and hence, survivability of optical network is extremely important. Sometimes, the protection for the two failed links interfere with each other and as a consequence only one failure can be protected. In a large optical network, failure probability of two links with overlapping protection can be high, as these links will be very likely geographically closer. Also, two link failure protection makes the network more resilient by taking care of double failures having overlapping protection. An innovative method for network survivability against two link failure is introduced in this paper. Further, to take care of this scenario, double cycle method (DB) which uses two cycles to protect a link has been described in this paper. Integer linear program (ILP) is formulated for the proposed as well as DB method. It was observed that the proposed method is simpler and performs better than the DB method.

Survivability schemes for optical backbone and access networks
Network survivability, reflecting the ability of a network to maintain an acceptable level of service during and after failures, is an important requirement for WDM optical networks due to the ultrahigh capacity. The most common network failure is the link failure which could cause enormous data loss and lots of service disruption to Internet users. Although single-link failures are the most co...

Dual-failure scenarios are a real possibility in today’s optical networks and it is becoming more and more important foe carriers and network operators to consider them when designing their networks. p-Cycle is a recent approach in optical network protection. p-Cycle use preconnected cycles of spare capacity to restore affected working traffic. We propose new method and strategies to support mu...

متن کاملp-Cycles with Parasitic Protection Links
The p-cycle and its Failure Independent Path Protection (FIPP) extension are known to be efficient and agile protection strategies. The p-cycle is pre-configured such that if there is a failure, only the switches at two end nodes need to be reconfigured. In this paper, we extend the p-cycle by allowing cycles to have attached links, called Parasitic Protection Links (PPL), in order to protect p...
متن کاملp-Cycle configuration possibilities over DRDA networks
A resilience analysis of protection cycles (p-cycle) configurations for Double Rings with Dual Attachment (DRDAs) architectures is presented in this work. DRDAs are composed of two rings with corresponding nodes connected by two separated links. There are several possible configurations of p-cycles, which may be used in DRDAs for improving link or node protection upon link failure. The values o...
