Abstract
In order to study traffic dynamics on multilayer networks, it is of great significance to build a network model which can more exactly reflect the actual network layered structure characteristics. In this paper, a three-layer network model in which two logical layers are mapped on one physical layer is established, and the traffic capacities of three kinds of multilayer networks with different combinations of logical layers are compared. Simulation results show that when the physical layer is the same random network, the network whose logical layers are two random networks has the optimal traffic capacity, the network with one random network and one scale-free network in the logical layers has the better traffic capacity than the network whose logical layers are two scale-free networks.
