Multi- Spectrum Bands Allocation for Time-Varying Traffic in the Flexible Optical Network

Abstract

The flexible optical networks are the promising solution to the exponential increase of traffic generated by telecommunications networks. They combine flexibility with the finest granularity of optical resources. Therefore, the flexible optical networks position themselves as a better solution than conventional WDM network. In the operational phase, traffic of connections fluctuates. In fact, the user’s need is not the same during day periods. Such traffic may experiment evidence of rising working hours, end of months or years and decreases during the night or on holidays. This variation requires the expansion or contraction of the number of frequency slots allocated to a connection to match the exact needs of the moment. The expansion of the traffic around the reference frequency of connection may lead to blockage because it must share frequency slots with neighboring connections in compliance with the constraints of continuity, contiguity, and non-overlapping. In this study, we offer a technique for allocating frequency slots for time-varying traffic connections. We share out the additional traffic load on different spectrum paths by respecting the constraint of time synchronization related to the differential delay to reduce the blocking rate due to traffic fluctuation.
