光纤延迟线和可调谐波长转换器在光分组交换网络竞争解决结构中的性能分析

研究了光分组交换网络中的两种竞争解决方案.结合课题研究的进展,基于突发和非突发业务,对这两种竞争处理结构进行了深入分析,得出了几点重要结论,首先,在竞争处理上,对于非突发业务,光纤延迟线比可调谐波长转换器有效;而对于突发业务而言,可调谐波长转换器比光纤延迟线有效.其次,在突发业务下反馈式光纤延迟线结构（FFA）是一种较为理想的竞争解决结构,但对非突发业务而言,反馈式光纤延迟线和可调谐波长转换器结构（FFTA）在成本上和结构尺寸上比FFA要有效的多.随着平均突发长度的增加,FFTA中的可调谐波长转换器数目也要增加才能获得合理的分组丢失率。但无论是针对突发业务还是非突发业务,FFTA都是一种成本有效的竞争解决结构.

Modeling and design of WDM optical buffers in asynchronous and variable-length optical packet switches

This paper aims to analyze the influence of wavelength conversion on the design of optical fiber delay line (FDL) buffers in a wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) packet switch. We focus on the network scenario that variable-length packets arrive at the optical switch asynchronously. Through a detailed analysis of the behaviors of packets in the WDM FDL buffer, an approximate analytical traffic model is established. And the theoretical model is proved to be reasonable by simulations. Based on the model, it is clear that, under the same traffic load per wavelength channel, the utilization of tunable wavelength converters (TWCs) to resolve the output contention significantly reduces the number of fiber delay lines (FDLs) in optical buffers, and to achieve a given packet loss probability under a certain number of FDLs, the required number of tunable wavelengths can be predicted. The model can also estimate the optimal value of the basic time unit of the FDLs, and examine the influence of WDM on the optimal value. Finally, the impact of wavelength conversion on the optical switch size is analyzed. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first time that modeling on this problem is presented.     

Hybrid buffering architecture for packet contention resolution of an optical packet switch

Packet contention is a major issue in optical packet switching network and it is not a trivial task to resolve due to lack of optical RAM technology. In order to resolve contention optical buffering approach is used using fiber delay lines (FDLs). Yet there is a heavy packet loss rate due to unavailability of output port and free FDLs. This paper proposes a hybrid buffering architecture using feed-forward and feedback shared FLDs to resolve packet contention resolution of an optical packet switch. Feed-forward FDLs are used as primary buffer and feedback FDLs are implemented as supplementary buffer. Simulation result shows that proposed hybrid buffering switch achieves packet loss rate between 10⁻¹ and 10⁻² at heavy traffic load (ρ = 0.9) for a 32 × 32 switch using different FDL length.     

Improved optical packet switching structure with recirculation buffer and feedback tunable wavelength converter

The performance of an optical switching network is mainly determined by its core node structure. An improved optical packet switching （OPS） node structure based on recirculation optical fiber delay line （FDL） and feedback tunable wavelength converter （TWC）, and a specific scheduling algorithm for the node structure are presented. This switching structure supports both point-to-point and point-to-multi- points broadcasting transmission with superior capacity expansion performance. Its superiority in packet loss probability is proved by simulation.     

Cost-effective combination of contention resolution/avoidance schemes in bufferless slotted OPS networks

Contention is a major problem for Optical Packed Switched (OPS) networks. Many studies have shown that to obtain a very small optical packet loss rate, a large number of specific contention resolution or contention avoidance hardware must be used. However, this may not be so cost-effective. Instead of using the same technique to achieve a very low packet loss rate, the idea of this paper is to use the combination of different contention avoidance and contention resolution schemes, but using a lower amount of each scheme, to reduce packet loss rate in slotted bufferless OPS networks. A number of cost-effective contention resolution and avoidance schemes are studied in order to decrease traffic loss and increase TCP throughput as a result. Designing a multi-fiber architecture that uses inexpensive shared-per-node wavelength converters and additional drop-ports can significantly reduce network-wide traffic loss. The lost traffic can also be retransmitted in the optical domain in order to have a loss-free OPS network. A cost model is also provided to obtain cost-effective combinations of fibers, wavelength converters and drop ports under a desirable TCP throughput and investment on network hardware. The effectiveness of the combined contention avoidance and resolution schemes are demonstrated under Internet traffic.     

An optical multicast packet switching architecture shared with limited-range multi-wavelength converter and full-range wavelength converters

Optical packet switch with multicast capability can inspire a broad range of multipoint to multipoint applications in future optical networks. An optical multicast packet switching architecture, equipped with feedback shared small number of limited-range multi-wavelength converters (LMWCs) and output shared some full-range wavelength converters (FRWCs), is proposed for a wavelength-division multiplexed optical multicast network to improve multicast performance in the paper. The FRWCs are used to overcome the performance degradation in terms of packet loss probability due to only use LMWCs. In the architecture, the two converters are shared by all the multicast packets importing to the optical multicast switch node. A maximum bipartite matching with minimum edges weights strategy was designed to employ fewer wavelength converters and avoid useless degradation of optical signal quality for the architecture to improve the node performance. The simulation results show that the proposed architecture and its wavelength converter scheduling algorithm can reduce the multicast packet loss probability with relatively lesser wavelength conversion cost.     

基于延迟抢占的突发竞争解决策略

在光突发交换网络中, 将竞争突发送入光纤延迟线(FDLs)缓存以避免丢弃被认为是一种便捷、有效的竞争解决方案。基于“提前预留”模型, 提出采用延迟抢占(DP)的方式来实现突发的竞争解决, 比较了全延迟抢占与部分延迟抢占机制的阻塞性能。为支持区分服务, 开展了两优先级系统中延迟抢占机制的研究, 建立了适用于两优先级系统的阻塞分析模型, 并对不同配比条件下延迟抢占机制的阻塞及延迟性能进行了仿真分析。仿真结果表明, 延迟抢占机制有效地保证了高优先级突发的低阻塞要求, 与低优先级突发相比, 其突发阻塞率要低约2个数量级。此外, 由于FDL的长度固定, 数据突发的时延要求也得到了有效保障, 流量载荷ρ=1.0时, 高优先级突发的平均延迟仅为10 μs。     

Performance analysis of a novel architecture for contention resolution of OPS

Optical packet switching (OPS) technology can rapidly deliver the enormous network bandwidth and offer high-speed data rate and format transparency. In this paper we propose a novel architecture using all-optical tunable wavelength converters (TWCs) and fiber delay-lines (FDLs) to address the contention problem for OPS in wavelength and time domains. This architecture improves packet switching speed but significantly decreases the number of optical switches comparing with existing architectures. A simulation is also conducted to evaluate the performance of the architecture. The simulation results show that the packet loss probability of this architecture is lower than general architectures.     

OBS网络中基于优先级与突发包分割的偏射路由机制

为了有效地降低突发包的丢失率和保证OBS网络中不同优先级业务的服务质量,提出了一种基于优先级与突发包分割的偏射路由机制.当冲突发生时,首先基于突发包的优先级进行"竞争突发包头部分割或者原突发包尾部分割"处理;无冲突部分直接在事先预留的输出数据信道上处理,冲突部分的分割突发包根据参数可调的偏射路由机制被偏射到最佳偏射路径上.仿真结果表明,该机制能够有效地降低整个网络的丢包率和端到端的延时,并且得到高优先级突发包的丢失率和延时低于低优先级突发包.由此可知,基于优先级与突发包分割的偏射路由机制能够有效地解决突发包的冲突问题,从而提高整个OBS网络的性能.     

Blocking in wavelength-routed all-optical WDM network with wavelength conversion

The blocking probability in wavelength-routed all optical networks is very important measure of performance of the network, which can be affected by many factors such as network topology, traffic load, number of links, algorithms employed and whether wavelength conversion is available or not. In this paper, we have proposed a mathematical model to reduce the blocking probability of the WDM optical network for wavelength-convertible networks. The model can be used to evaluate the blocking performance of any network topology also it can be useful to improve its blocking performance of the given network topology. The blocking probability variation of the network for a particular load (per link) has been studied based on the load variation and total number of wavelengths used in the network. This model gives good results for high load (per link).
