Problema de atribuição de rota, comprimento de onda e bandas em redes ópticas metropolitanas MB-OFDM

Abstract

With the significant growth of optical networks in metropolitan areas to accommodate the strong growth in data volume. The WDM MB-OFDM signal usage introduced by the MORFEUS network emerges as a candidate to flow traffic demand in the upcoming generation. However, there are a number of challenges in distributing the operational resources so that this type of network can operate satisfactorily. With this objective, it is of fundamental importance that the MORFEUS optical network adopts an efficient roting, wavelength and band assignment (RWBA) algorithm. The algorithm RWBA have as main function, choose resources in the network to provision new connections taking into account the best effort, to maximize the probability of attending future connections. The RWBA algorithm execution raises the cost of some components of signal insertion and extraction in this new MORFEUS architecture. In order to optimize the use of this components, as well as the signal usage in the network, this dissertation proposes the use of aspects of virtual topology design in optical networks in the RWBA problem. The results of numerical simulations show up a savings of 50% in signal use, and when compared to the same RWBA algorithm that does not take into account aspects of virtual topology. In addition, when the capacity of the MB-OFDM network is increased, the RWBAs in the scenarios with and without virtual topology application have equivalent blocking probability.
