History

In the late 70s

Before 1995




First fiber based optical transmission system
Mostly a single high-speed optical channel
All multiplexing done in electrical domain(TDM)
50Mb/s to 10Gb/s data services
After 1995



WDM allows simultaneously transmitting multiple high-speed
channels on different frequencies (Up to 160 wavelengths
today)
40G per l (OC768)
Total link capacity = 160 l *40G =6.4 Tbps

Disadvantage of Current Multilayer Protocol Stack

Inefficient


In IP over ATM over SONET over WDM network, 22%
bandwidth used for protocol overhead
Layers often do not work in concert


Every layer now runs at its own speed. So, low speed
devices cannot fill the wavelength bandwidth.
When detecting of failure, different layers compete for
protection


Optical layer detects failure almost immediately, restores error
in 2us to 60ms
SONET layer detects failure in 2.3–100 us, restores error in 60
ms
Disadvantage of Current Multilayer Protocol Stack (Cont)

Functional overlap: So many layers are doing
the same thing



Slow speed


Routing
Protections
Electronic devices can not catch the transmission
speed available at optical layer
Latencies of connection
Historical Reason for Multi-layer
SONET over WDM


IP over ATM


IP packets need to be mapped into ATM cells before transporting over WDM
using SONET frame
OEO conversions at every node is easier to build than all optical switch


Conventional WDM deployment is using SONET as standard interface to
higher layers

Switching all the packets in
optical layer?



Requires intelligence in the optical layer
Need to store packet during header
processing
Optical buffers are extremely hard to
implement


1 pkt = 12 kbits @ 10 Gbps requires 1.2 s of
delay => 360 m of fiber)
Optical Packet Switch still has a long
way to go………………………
Various Optical Switching
Technologies
Optical Burst Packet Switching

Retrospect the goal of IP over WDM:



Avoid electronic bottlenecks
Decrease the cost by simplifying the
multiple layer architecture
OBS is one proposal of how to realize
such a network
Optical Burst Switching

Resources are allocated using one way
reservation





Sender sends a request
Sender sends burst without waiting for an
acknowledgement of its reservation request
Switch does preparation for the burst when getting
the request
Bursts can have variable lengths
Burst switching does not necessarily require
buffering
Various OBSs



The schemes differ in the way bandwidth release is
triggered.
In-band-terminator (IBT) – header carries the routing
information, then the payload followed by silence
(needs to be done optically).
Tell-and-go (TAG) – a control packet is sent out to
reserve resources and then the burst is sent without
waiting for acknowledgement. Refresh packets are
sent to keep the path alive.
Main Characteristics of Optical
Burst Switching


There is a time separation(offset time) between header
and data
Header and data are usually carried on different
channels


Header goes through sophisticated electronic processing
Data is kept in optical domain
Conclusion


Current IP over ATM over SONET over WDM network
is inefficient and redundant
Future IP directly over WDM network



Advantages
 Less latency
 Automatic provisioning
 Higher bandwidth utilization
Challenge of packet directly over WDM network
 Optical buffer
Optical burst switch is one of the proposed techniques to IP
over WDM network
