Title
Dynamic CANON: a scalable multidomain core network
Abstract
The explosion of current demand has brought the contemporary multidomain core network paradigm to its limit. In the quest for new approaches that exploit recent developments in optical technology, a novel network architecture that obviates most of the expensive and loss-prone centralized all-optical switches is described in this work. It is based on clustered architecture for nodes in optical networks and features a reconciliation between dynamic resource allocation and guaranteed end-to-end network performance in a multidomain network. This article enhances the distributed, collision-free slot aggregation inside domains of clustered core nodes with dynamic switching of slots/frames between the domains. Thus, it can support dynamic sub-wavelength allocations between network domains, using standard burst-switching techniques. This extends the high efficiency and multiplexing gain into the inter-domain network even under highly bursty traffic. It features both low-cost optical add/drop edge nodes exploiting WDM transmission and agile and modular centralized electro-optical switches that are presented in conjunction with the overall network architecture. Its performance exhibits very low burst loss probability traded for a higher but tolerable and bounded delay.
