Abstract
The dimensioning process of a multi-ring network based on optical channel shared protection is discussed. This dimensioning starts with a multi-ring routing algorithm to decide on the rings traversed by a connection, followed by “Ring Loading” — and “Logical Wavelength Assignment”-algorithms applied to the individual rings. In this paper we focus on this second aspect, for which we introduce an integrated approach. The performance and applicability of this heuristic is evaluated for different objectives.
