Abstract

Distributed wavelength provisioning is becoming one of the most important technologies for supporting the next-generation wavelength-routed networks. In this paper we analyze the behavior of wavelength-routed networks with partial wavelength conversion capabilities (i.e., where wavelength conversion is available at only a subset of network nodes) when using distributed wavelength provisioning. Simulation results show that the proposed models are highly accurate for different network topologies under various traffic loads.
