Abstract

This paper studies the blocking performance of a class of all-optical overlaid-star TDM networks using a least- congested-path routing strategy in path selection. An analytical model is proposed to estimate the call blocking probability in such networks. This model takes link-load correlation into account and thus can provide accurate estimation of the blocking performance. The accuracy of the analytical model is verified by comparing analytical results with simulation results.
