Abstract

The development of different real-time multimedia facilities over the Internet has introduced an ever-increasing demand of Internet capacity. Wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) technology along with optical burst switching scheme (OBS) is a very useful mechanism for utilizing the raw bandwidth of an optical fiber to fulfill the huge bandwidth requirement. OBS technique is very efficient but the one-way reservation policy. In this paper, the performance of OBS network has been estimated and compared for different signaling protocols, viz. just-in-time (JIT), just-enough-time (JET), and tell-and-go (TAG). Wavelength converters are used to overcome contention in this case. The result shows that the performance of the switching architecture changes with number available wavelength converters for any signaling mechanisms and if the degree of conversion is kept constant, then the JET signaling scheme offers the best performance followed by TAG and JIT. The result presented in this paper may be useful for the network engineer to adopt the best signaling protocol for data transmission.
