Abstract:
This paper proposes a new circuit reallocation algorithm with make-before-break and push-pull techniques that considers the effects of physical layers in transparent elastic optical networks called Just One Circuit Reallocation (JOC). The JOC algorithm reallocates just one already established circuit to avoid blocking new circuit requests due to impairments in the physical layer. The results of the JOC algorithm were compared to three other algorithms: Circuit Reallocation Strategy - Physical Layer (CRS-PL), Circuit Reallocation for Block Reduction related to the QoT of the circuits (R-RQoT), and Make-Before- Break based defragmentation algorithm (MBBr). The reallocation algorithms are evaluated under the Bandwidth Blocking Probability (BBP), Circuit Blocking Probability (CBP), and the Number of reallocated circuits (N), external fragmentation, and percerntual of circuit by modulation for USA and EON topologies. Moreover, we also evaluated the performance of reallocation algorithms using complete sharing, K-shortest path computation, modified Dijkstra paths computation, and K-shortest path with reduction of QoTO to routing and spectrum assignment. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm performs better than the CRS-PL, R-RQoT and MBBr algorithms regarding BBP, PBC, and N. Regarding BBP our algorithm presented minimum reductions of approximately 65.36% e 55.6% for the USA and EON topology, respectively.
