A Mathematical Model of Switch Working in OBS Network with FDL and Deflection Routing

One of the main development trends of telecommunication networks is the process of transport networks fotonization that should lead to creation of the whole Optical Transport Network (All-Optical Network, AON). This conception let not to increase reserves that are required for meeting growing demand for data transfer. According to OBS technology packets in ingress node are gathered in bursts. Collisions appears in case of two or more bursts at a time transfer to the same output wavelength. Fiber delay lines (FDL), deflection routing and wavelength conversion are used for their correction. Through the use of FDL bursts are hold for some period of time and using deflection routing they can transfer en reroute but not the main route to the receiver. The whole version of wavelengths let to modify any incoming wavelengths to the outgoing one. In this article the switch in OBS network with FDL, the whole wavelength conversion and deflection routing are regarded. Also the system of equations in the global balance for the steady-state blocking probabilities and formulas for calculation of main productivity characteristics of separate optical fiber are derived.
