ABSTRACT
In all-optical networks, the physical layer impairments cause a degradation in the transmitted signal. Sometimes, the degradation causes an inadmissible Optical Signal to Noise Ratio (OSNR), which is translated into blocking due to low quality of transmission. The Impairment Aware -- Routing and Wavelength Assignment (IA-RWA) should choose the route and wavelength considering the physical layer impairments. The Choice of the Best Combination among M Combinations of Shortest Paths (MCSP) problem consists of choosing the best of the shortest paths for a network topology aiming to reduce the blocking probability. This paper presents a pioneer study of the MCSPs problem assuming Amplified Spontaneous Emission (ASE), co-wavelength crosstalk, self-wavelength crosstalk, neighbor wavelength crosstalk, Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD) and attenuations caused by fiber and devices. In this context, we propose a new routing algorithm that aims to resolve the MCSP problem considering the physical impairments.
