Network Layer Modeling of WDM Fiber Optic Network Architectures for Aerospace Platforms

We use a proposed reference network architecture to investigate the fault tolerance of an avionics DWDM network. Our simulations show modest increases in the numbers of hops and packets lost for low number of line failures.
