Abstract

A novel, simple and controllable bandwidth allocation scheme, called bandwidth on Demand (BoD), is proposed for optical burst-switched networks in this paper. It assures every service class to consume bandwidth no more than its granted percentage by examining the bandwidth usage of each class every time when assigning wavelengths to bursts. The burst loss ratios under arbitrary input loads are theoretically analyzed as well as numerically simulated for the first time. The theoretical descriptions agree very well with the simulated results. This scheme can be used for effective bandwidth allocation and management.
