Abstract

In Optical Burst Switching(OBS) networks, burst loss due to contention significantly affects the performance of networks. Even if many contention resolution schemes have been proposed, most of them have focused mainly on passively resolving contentions instead of avoiding them. In this paper, we propose an active contention avoidance scheme which controls a burst sending rate according to traffic load and burst loss in a network. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can more effectively reduce the burst loss rate compared to existing OBS model with and without burst sending rate control, and at the same time guarantees throughput.

광 버스트 교환 망에서 contention으로 인한 버스트의 손실은 망 성능에 중요한 영향을 끼친다. 많은 contention resolution 방식들이 제안되었지만 이들 중의 대부분은 contention을 방지하기 보다는 주로 수동적인 형태로 contention을 해결하는데 주력하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 망 내 트래픽 부하와 버스트 손실에 따라 버스트의 전송률을 제어하는 능동적인 contention avoidance 방식을 제안한다. 제안한 방식이, 기존의 광 버스트 전송률 제어 방식 및 버스트 전송률 제어를 제공하지 않는 일반적인 광 버스트 교환 모델과 비교하여 버스트 손실률이 향상됨과 동시에 처리율(throughput)도 보장함을, 시뮬레이션을 통해 입증한다.
