Abstract :
This paper presents the TSON metro mesh network architecture for guaranteed, statistically-multiplexed services. It proposes tunable time-wavelength assignment, one-way tree-based reservation and node architecture. Results demonstrate high network efficiency, fast service delivery and guaranteed QoS.
