In a multi-channel network based of wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology, an efficient protocol is needed in order for the transmitter and receiver to be tuned to the same wavelength during message transmission time. This paper proposes a priority-based reservation protocol that can efficiently support variable-length messages that require different QoS requirements. In this proposed protocol, high-priority nodes can reserve the data channel before low-priority nodes. However, once a node reserves a data channel successfully, it can persistently use the reserved channel till message transmission is finished regardless of the priority of the node. Moreover, the protocol can operate independently of the number of nodes, and any new node can join the network anytime without requiring network re-initialization. The protocol is analyzed with a finite population model and the throughput-delay characteristics are investigated as performance measures.

Although designing a virtual topology for all-optical WDM wide-area networks has been extensively studied and several algorithms have been proposed, these algorithms assumed error-free communication between two nodes. However, noises from optical amplifiers and optical cross-connects can degraded the signal, resulting in a nonzero bit-error rate. In this paper, we investigate the effect of physical limitations on the virtual topology design. We show that for side-area all-optical networks where transmission distance is fairly long, virtual topology design algorithm that can determine the locations of opto-electronic(OE) and electro-optic(EO) conversions to set up a connection request with a high BER in a multihop manner.

1960년대에 발명된 광섬유를 이용한 광통신기술은 1980년대 이래 빠르게 보급되었다. 특히 인터넷 트래픽이 폭발적으로 증가하기 시작한 1990년대 후반에 파장 분할 다중화(WDM) 기술이 상용화 되었으며 이 기술은 불과 수년 사이에 하나의 물리적인 광섬유 한 가닥을 통해 독립적인 수백 채널의 신호를 전송할 수 있는 수준에 이르렀다. 이에 더하여 ETDM 기술의 발전으로 채널 당 10Gbps 내지 40Gbps에 이르는 신호를 전송할 수 있게 되어 광섬유 선로 당 전송 용량은 테라급이 가능해졌다. 전송 용량의 빠른 확장과 과장된 수요 예측은 결국 공급 과잉을 초래하여 최근 수 년간 광전송 분야 시장이 침체된바 있다. 그러나 매년 약 두 배씩 꾸준히 증가하는 트래픽 덕에 최근에는 과잉 공급 분이 소진되어 가고 있으며 새로 시장이 활성화되고 있다. 새 시장에서는 종래의 점대점 방식을 넘어 메시형의 WDM 광 네트워크가 등장할 것이며 이에 따른 다양한 요소 기술을 요구하게 될 것이다. 본 고에서는 광전송 기술의 핵심 분야인 광 트랜스폰더 기술, 광 증폭기 기술, 그리고 광 네트워크 기술을 중심으로 현황과 발전전망을 알아본다.

We consider a routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) for the efficient operation of WDM networks. For a given physical network, a set of selected pairs of nodes, the number of required connections for each selected pair of nodes, and a set of available wavelengths, the RWA is to realize as many connections as possible without wavelength collision. We give an integer programming formulation and an algorithm based on column generation. Though the proposed algorithm does not guarantee optimal solutions, test results show that the algorithm gives probably good solutions.

For large capacity optical CDMA networks, we propose a shared-type encoder/decoder based on an tunable wavelength conveter (TWC) and an arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) router. Feasibility of the structure of the proposed encoder/decoder for dynamic code allocation is tested through simulations using three types of wavelength/time 2-D codes, which are the generalized multi-wavelength prime code(GMWPC), the generalized multi-wavelength Reed-Solomon code(GMWRSC) and the matrix code. Test results show that the proposed encoder/decoder can increase the channel efficiency not only by increasing the number of simultaneous users without any multiple-access interference but by using a relatively short length CDMA codes.

Two protocols inclouding the receiver collision avoidance function are proposed for high-speed optical fiber LANs with finite users. The basic idea to avoid receiver collision is the grouping of destination nodes by the number of channels and it is accomplished in the architecture with or without one separate control channel. While the protocol with a control channel requires a tunable optical transmitter, a fixed optical transmitter and two fixed optical receiver, the other protocol requires a tunable optical transmitter and one fixed optical receiver. The performance of two receiver collision avoidance protocols is computed and analyzed under various system parameters. The numerical results show that the receiver collision avoidance protocol has better performance for a small load than the protocol without receiver collision avoidance.

Three protocols based on the slotted Aloha technique are proposed for very high-speed optical fiber local area networks using wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) passive star topology and the throughputs and delays are derived. For getting a high probability in successful transmission of control packets determining the transmission of a data packet, we adopt control mini slot groups in these protocols. The retransmission probability is also considered in analysis. Both throughput and delay of three protocols are compared and analyzed by varying the number of control solt groups, the retransmission probability the length of a data packet and the number of channels. The numerical analysis shows that the proposed protocols adopted the control slot groups give the increase of throughput and the decrease of delay.
