A novel mechanism based on probe burst （PB） and a new key concept is proposed to detect faults of OBS networks by sampling the health of data channels, which solve the difficulty of optical monitoring schemes while keeps the transparency of data network to Internet protocol （IP） packets. It takes full advantage of the characteristics of OBS, including architecture and signalling scheme, and introduces the excellent performances of single-hop-test used in electrical communication networks into OBS environment while avoids the shortcoming that any optical burst must undergo an optical-electric-optical （OEO） conversion. Well designed PB can provide exact criterion for judging whether protection/restoration should be excuted according to hard or soft fault identification.展开更多

This paper presents a framework to evaluate blocking performance of time-slot-ted OBS networks with multi-fiber wavelength channels. The proposed model is efficient for not only single class traffic such as individual circuit switch traffics or best-effort traffics but also mixed multi-class traffics. The effectiveness of the proposed model is validated by simulation results. The study shows that blocking per-formance of multi-fiber TS-OBS network is acceptable for future Internet services.展开更多

With simulations, performance analysis and com- parisons are carried out in detail. The results show that, in the proposed scheme, burst loss probabilities are proportional to the given factors and the control of QoS performance can be achieved with better performance. This scheme will be beneficial to the OBS network management and the tariff policy making.展开更多
