— As an optical signal propagates along a lightpath to its destination in wavelength-routed optical networks (WRONs), the quality of service (QoS) will be degraded by transmissio...
— As an optical signal propagates along a lightpath to its destination in distributed wavelength-routed optical networks, the signal’s quality is degraded by transmission impai...
—Existing research demonstrated that an effective Routing and Wavelength Assignment (RWA) scheme and a wavelength converter placement algorithm are the two primary vehicles for i...
Routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) aims to assign the limited number of wavelengths in a wavelength-division multiplexed (WDM) optical network so as to achieve greater capacit...
