Abstract :
A comprehensive performance analysis for multihop WDM networks is presented. Focus is place on the characteristics, properties and a few network performance parameters. In addition, the effect of channel sharing on the network performance is studied. From the simulation, the optimal degree of channel sharing that maximizes the throughput is determined. From the comparison of the network performance, the most effective multihop network structure is proposed.
