Abstract :
The recovery time to restore services after the occurrence of a failure is a key issue in networks. In this article analytical expressions for the recovery time of traditional WDM protection and a novel protection scheme called primary-shared path-based are presented and performance comparison is done. The primary-shared path-based protection scheme is an approach that uses traffic grooming for protection, increasing the efficient use of network resources
