Abstract:
This paper presents a performance evaluation study of an OCS/OBS hybrid optical network using a traffic classification and optical switching selector scheme based on fuzzy logic. The fuzzy logic scheme verifies the statistical parameters of the input traffic and selects the appropriate optical switching paradigm. The hybrid optical network performance is evaluated in terms of block probability and efficiency in the use of the network resources. Our results show that the hybrid optical networking approach, when submitted to non-uniform traffic, uses network resources in a more efficient way compared to an optical network implementing one unique optical switching paradigm.
