Abstract

The paper derives lower bounds on the redundancy, the protection capacity to working capacity ratio, needed by link-protection or link-restoration. Homogeneity conditions, on which the well-known redundancy bound 1/(d???-1) holds for a network, are also identified, where d??? is the average nodal degree.
