Abstract: | In this paper, we investigate the problem of enhancing multiple-fault restorability in the path protected wavelength-routed all-optical WDM networks. The system architecture considered is circuit-switched with dynamic arrival of session requests. We propose a mechanism, which is used to combat multiple link failures. A routing and wavelength assignment algorithm has been proposed with the name of fault-tolerant routing and wavelength assignment algorithm. The comparison of this algorithm has also been made with the best-fit and first-fit algorithms. This algorithm deals with the optical networks with multiple faults and is effective for the varying load applied to nodes. This algorithm works well for the load applied to the nodes varying from low to high. |
