OBS (Optical Burst Switching) 네트워크에 관한 연구가 최근 활발히 진행되고 있으나 OBS 네트워크 운용에 필수적인 OAM (Operation md Maintenance)에 대한 연구는 아직 다루어지고 있지 않다. 본 논문에서는 다섯가지 OBS 기능들, 즉 BT (Burst Termination), BTX (Burst Transmission), BSW (Burst Switching), RSC(Routing and Switching Control), 그리고 PAR (Protection and Restoration)을 정의하였고, 이 기능적 모델에 근거하여 네트워크 운용 요구 조건들을 만족시키기 위한 OAM 아키텍처를 설계하였다. 또한, OAM 수행에 필요한 OAM 동작들의 정의와 OAM이 가능한 ingress 에지, 코어, egress 에지 노드들의 구조, 그리고 OAM 정보 및 통신 모델과 프로토콜 등과 같은 OAM 구현을 위한 기본 체제를 제안하였다. 그리고, 제안된 OAM 아키텍처를 이용하여 OBS 네트워크에서 발생 가능한 여러 가지 장애들에 대한 OAM을 정리하였다.

Presently, optical burst switching (OBS) technology is under study as a promising solution for the backbone of the optical Internet in the near future because OBS eliminates the optical buffer problem at the switching node with the help of no optical/electro/optical conversion and guarantees class of service without any buffering. To implement the OBS network, there are a lot of challenging issues to be solved. The edge router, burst offset time management, and burst assembly mechanism are critical issues. In addition, the core router needs data burst and control header packet scheduling, a protection and restoration mechanism, and a contention resolution scheme. In this paper, we focus on the burst assembly mechanism. We present a novel data burst generation algorithm that uses hysteresis characteristics in the queueing model for the ingress edge node in optical burst switching networks. Simulation with Poisson and self-similar traffic models shows that this algorithm adaptively changes the data burst size according to the offered load and offers high average data burst utilization with a lower timer operation. It also reduces the possibility of a continuous blocking problem in the bandwidth reservation request, limits the maximum queueing delay, and minimizes the required burst size by lifting up data burst utilization for bursty input IP traffic.

This paper proposes a priority-based duplicate burst transmission mechanism in an optical burst switching network to enhance the probability of successful reception of bursts. The performance of the proposed mechanism is evaluated by NS2 simulations. Our results show that the burst loss rate is improved especially under light traffic loads.

본 논문에서 광 네트워크에서 광 버스트 스위칭(Optical Burst Switching, OBS)과 광 회선 스위칭 (Optical Circuit Switching, OCS) 기술의 장점을 동시에 가지는 새로운 광 hybrid 스위칭(Optical Hybrid Switching) 시스템을 제안한다. 이 시스템은 들어오는 IP 트래픽을 hybrid 스위칭을 위해 짧은(short-lived) 흐름과 긴(long-lived) 흐름 구분한다. 성능 분석을 위하여 시스템을 Markovian 환경에서 단일 서버 큐로서 모델링 한다. 버스트 생성 프로세스는 two-state Markov Modulated Poisson Process (MMPP)를 따른다고 가정하고 서비스 율은 동시에 발생하는 OCS 세션의 수에 따라 변한다. OBS 버스트에 대한 평균 지연 및 큐 사이즈의 결과를 보인다.

Optical burst switching(OBS) is a new switching paradigm to supporting bursty traffic on the Internet efficiently. OBS separates burst level and control level. To handle data burst efficiently, the scheduling schemes in optical burst switching systems must keep track of future resource availability when assigning arriving data bursts to wavelength channels. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of three scheduling schemes which are called Horizon, Single-gap and Multiple-gap, as a basic study for the future research of Optical Internet. Thus, firstly, we analyze the trade-off between the performance and the processing overhead of each scheme. In addition, the performance of OBS system which uses Multiple-gap scheduling is evaluated in detail under various network size. We use simulation for performance evaluation in terms of burst loss rate(BLR), wavelength channel utilization and the number of management data.

Optical Switching Matrix (OSM) or Optical Multistage Interconnection Networks (OMINs) comprising photonic switches have been studied extensively as important interconnecting blocks for Optical Cross Connects (OXC) based on Optical Burst Switching (OBS). A basic element of photonic switching networks is a 2$\times$2 directional coupler with two inputs and two outputs. This paper is concerned with the diagnosis of multiple crosstalk-faults in OSM. As the network size becomes larger in these days, the conventional diagnosis methods based on tests and simulation become inefficient, or even more impractical. We propose a simple and easily implementable algorithm for detection and isolation of the multiple crosstalk-faults in OSM. Specifically. we develop an algorithm for isolation of the source fault in switching elements whenever the multiple crosstalk-faults arc detected in OSM. The proposed algorithm is illustrated by an example of 16$\times$16 OSM.

Optical burst switching is a promising switching paradigm for the next IP-over-optical network backbones. However, its burst loss performance is greatly affected by burst contention. Several methods have been proposed to address this problem, some of them requiring the network to be flooded by frequent state dissemination signaling messages. In this work, we present a traffic engineering approach for path selection with the objective of minimizing contention using only topological information. The main idea is to balance the traffic across the network to reduce congestion without incurring link state dissemination protocol penalties. We propose and evaluate two path selection strategies that clearly outperform shortest path routing. The proposed path selection strategies can be used in combination with other contention resolution methods to achieve higher levels of performance and support the network reaching stability when it is pushed under stringent working conditions. Results show that the network connectivity is an important parameter to consider.

Known as an important criterion that evaluates performance of future high-speed backbone networks, burst data loss ratio is well-studied in Optical Burst Switching networks. Current literatures mostly focus on reduce burst loss ratio without considering the system stability and link utilization after reducing. In this paper, we propose a novel framework which comes from feedback theoretic to dynamically control burst loss ratio in OBS. The proposed scheme tries to track the pre-set values of burst loss ratio and increases the stability and link utilization degree. The simulation results show that measured burst loss ratio always tracks setup reference with small errors, wavelength channel utilization is increased up to 2% and the system stability is also improved.

Retransmission in optical burst switching networks is a solution to recover data loss by retransmitting the dropped burst. The ingress node temporarily stores a copy of the complete burst and sends it each time it receives a retransmission request from the core node. Some retransmission schemes have been suggested, but uncontrolled retransmission often increases the network load, consumes more bandwidth, and consequently, increases the probability of contention. Controlled retransmission is therefore essential. This paper proposes a new controlled retransmission scheme for loss recovery, where the available bandwidth of wavelength channels and the burst lifetime are referred to as network conditions to determine whether to transmit a dropped burst. A retrial queue-based analysis model is also constructed to validate the proposed retransmission scheme. The simulation and analysis results show that the controlled retransmission scheme is more efficient than the previously suggested schemes regarding byte loss probability, successful retransmission rate, and network throughput.
