ABSTRACT:
Wavelength assignment schemes that provide full-connectivity in RANs with fixed-tuned OADMs. In the first scheme, wavelengths are assigned to nodes according to Hadamard code, and in the second scheme, bands of contiguous wavelengths are assigned to nodes. Simulation results show that on the average, the Hadamard wavelength assignment schemes approach the performance of RANs with OADMs that add-drop all wavelengths, while saving 50% of the TDM terminals. The saving of TDM terminals by using wavelength tunable OADMs vary in different cases. Tunable OADMs are advantageous for lower traffic granularity and more interactions of a RAN with the outside network.
