Abstract (Englisch)

Due to the high aggregation of large traffic streams, protection against losses is of central importance. The direct routing of a light path results in a optical path layer (OPL). Efficient protection schemes apply directly to the OPL. A novel, unified integer linear programming (ILP) formulation for shared protection has been developed. For larger networks or in the case where a light path uses the same wavelength throughout the whole network, heuristics are required to solve the problem which reduce the complexity significantly. Planning algorithms for ring-networks with dedicated protection rings (DPRing) and shared protection rings (SPRing) has been investigated. Here, an ILP-approach as well as an iterative ring-identification method has been developed. The impact of uncertainties in the planning-process and the lack of knowledge of the exact traffic pattern on the required capacity has been studied.
