In this letter, we evaluate the performance of Optical Cross Connect (OXC) architectures equipped with limited-range wavelength converters. Performance will be evaluated according to both an optimum and a random output wavelength assignment strategy. Analytical and simulation results show the possibility to reduce the conversion degree of the Wavelength Converters while keeping network performance high.

Abstract
In this letter, we evaluate the performance of Optical Cross Connect (OXC) architectures equipped with limited-range wavelength converters. Performance will be evaluated according to both an optimum and a random output wavelength assignment strategy. Analytical and simulation results show the possibility to reduce the conversion degree of the Wavelength Converters while keeping network performance high.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
