A new method for evaluating lightwave network architectures

Presents a novel analytical technique for evaluating a lightwave network architecture for two different traffic distribution patterns, viz., uniform traffic distributions (UTDs) and zonal traffic distributions (ZTDs). Evaluating an architecture in the context of interest calls for determining the internode distance (IND) distribution, the mean IND (MIND), the topology z-transform, and the penalty per deflection en route to destination for a prespecified version of the network structure. It is shown that the architectural properties of a network are very much dependent on the traffic distribution patterns.<<ETX>>
