18 Abstract-As optical burst switched networks offer connectionless transport, there exists the chance that burst may contend with one another at intermediate nodes.Contention will happen if multiple bursts from various input ports are meant for the same output port all at once. we introduce a new approach FDL_WA_WPremp to reduce the burst loss probability during contention. through simulation and analytical modeling, it is shown that the policy introduced reduces burst loss substantially when compared to the standard policy of dropping the contending burst in the event of contention.

“…Optical burst switching (OBS) has become one of the promising technologies for future optical networks because OBS can accommodate high bandwidth consuming services such as video on demand (VoD) and Internet Protocol television (IPTV), and it has inherited advantages from both circuit switching and packet switching technologies [2]. In OBS, several packets are assembled into a data burst (DB) and the DB is transmitted by cut-through burst switching in all optical domains after a burst control packet (BCP) is transmitted through a separated wavelength.…”

“…Though OBS has many advantages, it has an inevitable burst contention problem due to its one-way reservation (ACK-less) mechanism [2] and wastes network resources due to a dedicated channel for signaling. Much attention has been given to the burst contention problem especially in OBS ring networks using the out-band signaling scheme for BCP.…”

This paper presents a novel collision-less optical burst transmission scheme, namely, look-ahead optical burst transmission (LAOBT) for WDM ring networks. In the LAOBT, bursts are generated and inserted into burst streams by utilizing the void intervals of incoming bursts (IBs) in advance. The void size is estimated by splitting optical power into two paths, delaying one of the signals at the fiber delay line (FDL) and calculating IBs' residual time from the splitter to the optical cross-connect (OXC). The performance evaluation results show that our proposed scheme increases link utilization without significant increment of end-to-end delay and signaling overhead.

Abstract. The Optical Burst Switching (OBS) technology emerged as an alternative switching paradigm for the optical transport layer. Its biggest disadvantage (high data losses) has been the focus of numerous research papers. This paper proposes a data loss reduction technique, which relies on the combination of global network coordination between network nodes and local contention resolution. Via full-scale network simulation it is demonstrated that the proposed scheme has improved performance in terms of data losses and resource utilization, compared to its constituent mechanisms alone. Furthermore, the effectiveness of the mechanism has proven to be less sensitive to load variations in the medium and high load ranges. Additionally, its complexity and deployment cost are low, due to the absence of immature optical components in the network.
