Abstract

Optical burst switching(OBS) is a promising solution for building terabit optical routers and realizing If over WDM. Channel scheduling Algorithm for reduce contention is one of the major challenges in OBS. We address the issue of how to provide basic burst channel scheduling in optical burst switched WDM networks with fiber delay lines(FDLs). In OBS networks the control and payload components or a burst are sent separately with a time gap. If CHP arrives to burst switch node, because using scheduling algorithm for data burst, reservation resources such as wavelength and transmit data burst without O/E/O conversion, because contention and void between burst are happened at channel scheduling process for data burst that happened the link utilization and bust drop probability Existent proposed methods are become much research to solve these problems. Propose channel scheduling algorithm that use Release Time of bust to emphasize clearance between data and data dissipation that is happened in data assignment in this treatise and maximize bust drop probability and the resources use rate (RTUC : Release Time Unscheduled Channel). As simulation results, Confirmed that is more superior in terms of data drop and link utilization than scheduling algorithm that is proposed existing. As simulation results, confirmed improved performance than scheduling algorithm that is proposed existing in terms of survival of burst, efficiency resource and delay. However, In case load were less, degradation confirmed than existent scheduling algorithm relatively, and confirmed that is superior in data drop aspect in case of load increased.

Optical Burst Switched (OBS)는 If over WDM 망에서 테라비트 전송을 하기 위한 진보된 기술이다. OBS의 핵심 기술 중 하나는 데이터 버스트(DB : Data Burst)의 경쟁을 막기 위한 채널 스케쥴링 이다. OBS망에서 버스트의 제어패킷(CHP : Control Header Packet)과 데이터 버스트는 시간 간격(Time Gap)을 가지고 전송된다. 버스트 스위치 노드에 CHP가 도착하면 데이터 버스트을 위해 스케줄링 알고리즘을 사용하여 파장/채널(wavelength/channel)과 같은 자원을 예약하여 광전광(O/E/O)변환 없이 데이터 버스트를 전송해준다. 데이터 버스트를 위해 채널 스케줄링 과정에서 버스트간의 경쟁과 시간 간격이 발생되어 자원의 사용율과 버스트 손실 확률이 떨어진다. 기존에 제안된 방법들은 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 많은 연구가 되어 지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 데이터 할당에서 발생되는 데이터간 간격과 데이터 손실에 중점을 두어 버스트 손실 확률과 자원 사용율을 극대화하기 위하여 버스트의 개방 시간)Release Time)을 이용한 채널 스케줄링 알고리즘 RTUC(Release Time Unscheduled Channel)을 제안한다. 시뮬레이션 결과 기존에 제안된 스케쥴링 알고리즘(LAUC, LAUC-VF)보다 버스트의 생존(Survival)과 효율적인 자원 사용 및 지연에서 개선된 성능을 확인하였다. 하지만, 로드가 적었을 경우 상대적으로 기존의 스케줄링 알고리즘보다 성능저하가 확인되었고, 로드가 증가했을 경우에는 데이터 손실 면에서 우수함을 확인하였다.
