Path-based protection for surviving double-link failures in mesh-restorable optical networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
we consider path-based protection methods for twolink failures in mesh optical networks. Two link-disjoint backup paths are pre-computed for each source and destination node pair. We identify the scenarios where the backup paths can share their wavelengths without violating 100% restoration guarantee (backup multiplexing). We use integer programming to optimize the total capacity requirement for both dedicatedand shared-path protection schemes. Our results indicate that backup multiplexing significantly improves the efficiency of total capacity utilization. For the randomly generated demand sets, the shared-path scheme provides up to 37.5% saving in total capacity utilization over dedicated-path scheme. Backup multiplexing provides more saving for the demand set that has connection requests distributed more evenly. For the double link failure recovery methods, path-based methods are more efficient in capacity utilization than link-based methods. Dedicated-path scheme performs better than shared-link scheme in total capacity utilization on average.

Optimal Resource Placement in Multifiber Mesh-Survivable WDM Networks
Demands for networks of higher and higher capacities are increasing dramatically with the growth of the Internet and the World Wide Web. All-optical wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) networks is the most promising candidate to fulfill the bandwidth requirement of the Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network (B-ISDN). In WDM networks, the huge bandwidth available on an optical fiber is...
متن کاملSurvivable WDM Mesh Networks
In a wavelength-division-muliplexing (WDM) optical network, the failure of network elements (e.g., fiber links and cross connects) may cause the failure of several optical channels, thereby leading to large data losses. This study examines different approaches to protect a mesh-based WDM optical network from such failures. These approaches are based on two survivability paradigms: 1) path prote...

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...
متن کاملDynamic protection using integrated-routing approach in IP-over-WDM networks
This paper presents an efficient protection scheme to dynamically allocate restorable bandwidth-guaranteed paths in integrated IP-over-wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) networks. A restorable bandwidth-guaranteed path implies an active path and another link-disjoint backup path both with the required bandwidth. In this paper, we propose two integrated-routing algorithms: hop-based integrat...
متن کاملA 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...
