Abstract
By splitting traffic across an optimal number of disjoint paths, it is shown a capacity saving of up to 11% is possible in randomly generated networks relative to the most capacity efficient mesh-based restoration scheme available to date. An algorithm yielding the optimal number of disjoint paths is developed.
