Link protection schemes for WDM-based optical networks have been extensively researched. Most work to date has ignored the physical layer impairments (PLIs) that could be dominant ...
Conventional optical networks are based on SONET rings, but since rings are known to use bandwidth inefficiently, there has been much research into shared mesh protection, which pr...
In WDM networks, it is important to protect connections against link failures due to the high bandwidth provided by a fiber link. Although many p-cycle based schemes have been pro...
For the ongoing standardization activities for IP-based broadcast video and audio streaming services over DVBH, DMB or 3GPP’s MBMS the use of new forward error protection techni...
