Abstract

In this paper, we study the performance analysis of a class of WDM optical networks with regular topologies such as shuffle-exchange and deBrujin. The performance metrics of interest are minimizing the number of hops and the wavelengths required. We consider only static traffic demand and we have not used any wavelength converters or light splitters in these networks. Further, the analysis is made for wide-sense nonblocking multicast session. A heuristic algorithm is proposed in this paper for routing, which greatly reduces the number of wavelengths required for intermediate nodes than the end nodes of both the topologies considered by us. The cost functions are determined for both cases in terms of the hop count and the number of usage of wavelengths. We compare our results with breadth-first-search algorithm and prove that the performance due to our algorithm is relatively better than breadth-first-search algorithm.
