Maximizing resource sharing in WDM mesh networks with path-based protection and sparse OEO regeneration

Abstract

We propose a resource-sharing scheme that supports three kinds of sharing scenarios in a WDM mesh network with path-based protection and sparse OEO regeneration. Several approaches are used to maximize the sharing of wavelength-links and OEO regenerators.
