On operating shared-path-protected WDM networks non-revertively by using backup path reprovisioning

Performance of using backup path reprovisioning for non-revertive operations of shared-path-protected optical networks is assessed in terms of connection availability. Numerical results indicate that the approach is attractive when sufficient free wavelengths are available.
