Maximize the utilization of WDM channels using WR-OBS in adaptive optical burst switching

Abstract

Optical Burst Switching (OBS) adapts to the size of switching data unit of the network load. It is a two-way reservation scheme. IP is collected at the egress node. Every active source-destination pair tries to reserve a light path and for every successful reservation, it transmits an optical burst whose size is proportional to the number of active data flows. This technique is Adaptive Optical Burst Switching (AOBS). Hence the proposed scheme is optimal in the sense that the network is stable for all traffic intensities. Hence the throughput and delay performance of Adaptive Optical Burst Switching is evaluated and compare the performance of Optical Burst Switching and Adaptive Optical Burst Switching.
