This article provides a perspective on optical layer protection and restoration based on the
services offered by carriers using the optical layer. This is different from other viewpoints that
provide a taxonomy of protection techniques in a more abstract fashion for the purposes of
standardization. The latter viewpoints are mostly based on the classification adopted in the
SONET/SDH standards. In contrast, taking a services-based view provides a way to
distinguish between protection schemes based on implementation costs and the associated …
This article provides a perspective on optical layer protection and restoration based on the services offered by carriers using the optical layer. This is different from other viewpoints that provide a taxonomy of protection techniques in a more abstract fashion for the purposes of standardization. The latter viewpoints are mostly based on the classification adopted in the SONET/SDH standards. In contrast, taking a services-based view provides a way to distinguish between protection schemes based on implementation costs and the associated services enabled by the protection scheme.
