Abstract

In this paper we propose and evaluate a complete solution to build ring-based optical networks with OMS-DPRing protection capability. The solution consists of 1) a mechanism based on extensions to GMPLS link management protocol (LMP) to coordinate protection actions, and 2) a new reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer (ROADM) design to support OMS-DPRing protection. The performance of the complete solution is experimentally evaluated.
