Problems solved by technology

Nevertheless, pre-planning protection paths is still preferred for GMPLS-controlled wavelength-switched optical networks at present, because the probability that OTF connections will not find any alternative paths is too high
This is due to the requirement of wavelength continuity and the limit of light reach, so it is too costly to have wavelength conversion or light regeneration throughout the network

Abstract

Dynamic restoration includes routing and bandwidth allocation for unplanned restoration paths in a wavelength switched optical network (20) having regenerating nodes (60), some of which each have optical drop paths and optical add paths Path ROADM(62). An electrical switch (68) provides configurable regeneration capacity by coupling selected drop paths to selected add paths. Reserve some configurable regeneration capacity for unplanned recovery paths. The PCE determines (120) routing and bandwidth allocation for unplanned restoration paths for traffic flows to avoid failures, and sends (130) configuration messages to these nodes to dynamically establish unplanned restoration paths and configure electrical switches to Provides regeneration. Some reconfigurable regenerative capacity remains, the ability to discover much longer unplanned paths to avoid failures, and wavelength conversion if needed. Thereby, the reliability of finding at least one path avoiding the fault can be increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to dynamic restoration in wavelength switched optical networks, to methods of using regenerative nodes in such networks, to corresponding computer programs, to methods of adapting such networks to provide dynamic restoration, to path computation elements of such networks and Regenerator nodes involved in such networks. Background technique [0002] A wavelength-switched optical network (WSON) supports end-to-end optical paths, called lightpaths, between nodes that need to be connected in the network. Intermediate nodes in this type of network support wavelength switching and may also support wavelength switching. In contrast to point-to-point optical communication links that always provide high-capacity transmission between a pair of identical nodes, WSON supports multiple pairs of nodes in networks with multiple complex topologies such as ring, interconnected ring, or mesh topologies between setup and teardown of light ...
