Abstract
This paper proposes two types of sub-network based on dynamic restoration schemes to improve survivability of GMPLS networks and analyzes characteristics of these two schemes. The first proposed scheme divides with a whole GMPLS network into several sub-networks, applies a mixture of both restoration and protection methods according to fault location. The other scheme divides a whole GMPLS network into primary and secondary sub-networks, applies a restoration method in each sub-network according to fault location. In our simulation, we evaluate the performances of network resource utilization, restoration success rate, and mean restoration time and conduct its comparative analysis with conventional schemes. The simulation results show that the efficiency of network resource utilization in the proposed schemes is increased as compared with conventional restoration schemes (l+l, 1:1, 1:N) in case of single-failed link. By contrast, we found that the performances of restoration success rate and mean restoration time in case of multi-failed link is lower than conventional restoration schemes. However, the probability that multi-failed link is occurred is very low so that the problem in practical GMPLS network is negligible.
