Abstract:
-In this paper, a WDM mesh network is planned and designed by two methods so that to satisfy all its demands and each connection has to be protected with the dedicated way by both nodes. In the first method each connection uses the free available wavelength after the maximum busy wavelength (higher index) of each optical link from full complementary working and protection lightpaths. In the second method, each connection uses the first free (lowest index) available wavelength of each optical link from full complementary working and protection lightpaths.
