This paper addresses various implementation issues in an all-photonic overlaid-star
network, where there can be multiple fibers between an edge and a core node and multiple …

Although WDM-based single-hop star networks are attractive owing to their all-optical
communication features, the throughput of such lightwave networks is limited due to the …

This paper addresses various issues in an all-photonic network called APOSN (All-Photonic
Overlaid-Star Network). By revisiting the fundamental star topology, a scalable architecture …

This paper considers the problem of routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) in optical
passive star networks with non-uniform traffic load. The problem can be considered as …

The time and wavelength division multiplexed (TWDM) access protocol is one of the most
promising ways to exploit the enormous bandwidth in a single-mode optical fiber. We focus …

The paper compares two implementation schemes of multihop virtual topologies in a WDM
passive star network. The first implementation scheme, denoted by link mapping is the …

The agile all-photonic network (AAPN) is a network that uses time division multiplexing
(TDM) to better utilize the bandwidth of WDM systems. AAPN uses agile all-photonic …

Abstract Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) has been shown to be one of the most
promising ways to exploit the enormous bandwidth of a single mode optical fiber. Networks …

Although single-hop star networks based on wave-length division multiplexing (WDM) are
attractive owing to their all-optical communication features, the throughput of such lightwave …

A novel wavelength assignment method for a bidirectional two-fibre WDM network of star
topology is proposed. It is shown that the minimal number of wavelengths required for an n …
