Abstract
In this paper, an analytical model based on the semi-Markov theory is developed to quantify the performance of a distributed access protocol for a slotted WDM metro ring employing all-optical packet switching and based on an a-posteriori packet selection strategy. In our architecture, each node is equipped with one tunable transmitter and one fixed-tuned receiver. Furthermore, as we generally consider a-posteriori access strategies, different packet selection schemes are compared by simulations.
