Abstract :
In this paper analytical and simulative study of optical packet/burst assembly in the presence of self similar input traffic is presented. The influence of the main assembly parameters is studied by simulation for timer and size-based aggregation strategies. Analytical model is proposed to represent the average traffic on optical link with the aim to evaluate system performance. Comparisons with simulation prove that the model is well suited to catch the loss system behaviour.
