WDM光网络中的组播波长分配算法研究

Research on multicast wavelength assignment algorithm in WDM optical networks

组播是一种应用广泛的点到多点或多点到多点的通信方式,光层组播以其独特优势引起了人们的关注和重视。在综合分类的基础上,对光网络组播波长分配算法的最新研究进展进行了归纳和总结,并对今后需重点研究的方向进行了展望。

Multicast provides a means of point-to-multipoint or multipoint-to-multipoint communication, which has several applications. Because of its specific advantage, optical multicasting arrests more attention. In this paper, the newest advance of multicast wavelength assignment algorithm in optical networks based on the integrated classification is summarized. Besides, the further direction which is critical to the problem is foreseen.
