Abstract
In this work, we investigated the impact of polarization-mode dispersion (PMD) in optical networks using the hybrid technology of wavelength-division multiplexing and optical code-division multiplexing. In these networks, virtual paths based on code/wavelength channels (VCP/VWP) are dynamically established to attend the traffic demand. We use a routing channel assignment based on genetic algorithm to establish the VCP/VWPs. The main results show that the network blocking probability caused by PMD depends on parameters of optical orthogonal codes like weight and length.
