Abstract
This paper proposes a multicast traffic grooming scheme for efficient resource utilization in wavelength- division multiplexing (WDM) mesh networks. This Light-Tree Division-Adjacent Node Component based Grooming scheme (LTD-ANCG) is based on the idea of dividing a light-tree into smaller sub-light-trees. It improves the efficiency of resource utilization and lowers the optical-electronic-optical (OEO) conversion overhead. We use computer simulations to evaluate the performance of the scheme. Our simulations demonstrate that compared with existing algorithms, the new scheme significantly reduces the request blocking probability but can be implemented with very reasonable electronic processing. ©2010 IEEE.
