Impairment-Aware Optical Networking: A Survey

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
WDM Systems and Networks

Part of the book series: Optical Networks ((OPNW))

Abstract

In optical networks the effect of physical layer impairments can play an important role in the routing and wavelength assignment decisions that are taken in the control layer. Furthermore, as networks evolve to support more bandwidth-intensive applications, and as rich multimedia and real-time services become more popular, next-generation networks are expected to support traffic that will be heterogeneous in nature with both unicast and multicast applications. In this chapter we investigate the problems of routing and wavelength assignment in transparent optical networks that support unicast and multicast applications, while taking into consideration the physical layer impairments during the provisioning of each application.
