Impairment aware routing with service differentiation in heterogeneous WDM networks

We evaluate an Impairment Constraint Based Routing algorithm with service differentiation (ICBR-Diff) applied in WDM networks with fiber links having varying Polarization Mode Dispersion characteristics. Simulation results show high adaptability of the ICBR-Diff approach to this heterogeneous fiber...

Description
Summary:We evaluate an Impairment Constraint Based Routing algorithm with service differentiation (ICBR-Diff) applied in WDM networks with fiber links having varying Polarization Mode Dispersion characteristics. Simulation results show high adaptability of the ICBR-Diff approach to this heterogeneous fiber scenario when compared to conventional routing schemes.
