초록

본 논문에서는 산재-부분-제한영역 파장 변환 방식의 파장분할다중화 광통신망의 불통 확률을 정확하게 계산할 수 있는 수학적 성능분석 모형을 제안하고, 이를 기반으로 파장 변환기를 효율적으로 배치하는 파장 변환기 배치 알고리듬을 제시한다. 제안하는 성능분석 모형은 파장 변환기의 제한된 파장 변환 영역으로 발생하는 영역 불통(Range Blocking)과 파장 변환기의 개수 제약으로 발생하는 용량 불통(Capacity Blocking)을 이론적으로 도출하는 최초의 성능분석 모형이다. 유럽 광통신망에서 수행한 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 제안하는 성능분석 모형이 광통신망의 불통확률을 정확히 예측함을 보인다. 또한, 기존에 알려진 산재 파장 변환 방식, 부분 파장 변환 방식, 또는 제한영역 파장 변환 방식들과 비교할 때, 이들을 효율적으로 결합한 산재-부분-제한영역 파장 변환 방식이 최소의 파장 변환 비용으로 주어진 광통신망의 불통 성능을 달성할 수 있음을 보인다.

In this paper, we present a new analytical model that can precisely estimate the blocking performance of wavelength-routed WDM networks with sparse-partial-limited wavelength conversion (SPLWC). The proposed model accounts for the two sources of call blocking in a wavelength converter: range blocking originated from the limited conversion range of a wavelength converter; and capacity blocking induced from the limited number of wavelength converters. Based on the proposed model, we also present a new converter placement algorithm that minimizes the amount of wavelength conversion capability, while satisfying the given constraint on the network-wide blocking probability. From the numerical results obtained from the EON, we demonstrate that the blocking probability of the analytical model closely matches with that of the simulation. We also show that, by efficiently combining the existing sparse, partial, and limited wavelength conversion, the SPL WC can achieve the required blocking performance with the least amount of wavelength conversion cost.
