Abstract :
This paper deals with the system availability estimation schemes in WDM (wavelength division multiplexing) optical networks and it provides for each network topology analysis of the availability. We consider single or multiple link protection scenarios for the bus and ring type topologies. Availability models and formulas are followed by some numerical examples
