Lightpath fragmentation for efficient spectrum utilization in dynamic elastic optical networks

Abstract: Abstract-The spectrum-sliced elastic optical path network (SLICE) architecture has been presented as an efficient solution for flexible bandwidth allocation in optical networks. An homologous problem to the classical Routing and Wavelength Assignment (RWA) arises in such an architecture, called Routing and Spectrum Assignment (RSA). Imposed by current transmission technologies enabling the elastic optical network concept, the spectrum contiguity constraint must be ensured in the RSA problem, meaning that the b… Show more

“…Several methods used to defragment FSUs may be distinguished: re-optimization [13], make-before-break [14], push-and-pull [15], and hop-tuning [16]. All of them are commonly used for defragmentation of an available spectrum used in links between EON nodes.…”

“…Applied to WSON, authors in [6], [7] propose a mechanism for multiple lightpaths provisioning which satisfies extremely high bandwidth requirements whilst minimizes the amount of traffic affected by single link failures upper-bounding also differential delay. Authors in [8] propose using multi-path provisioning for flexgrid optical networks as a mechanism to increase network performance. The application of multi-path to recovery was introduced by authors in [9] where K disjoint paths are both provisioned and protected using SPP.…”

“…Several previous works in [12], [35]- [38] considered the application of slice-ability in a dynamic traffic scenario. In these studies, when a lightpath request cannot be allocated as a single super-channel, slice-ability is used to split the request in a number of sub-lightpaths that are independently routed in the network and each one has to fit the ITU-T flexgrid.…”
