Abstract

The performance of Sparse Optical Code Conversion (SOCC) architectures is investigated in Optical Burst Switching (OBS) networks using a hybrid technology, which apply optical code and wavelength division multiplexing. The simulation results indicate that the increase of the number of optical codes and the utilization of SOCC conversion, lead to considerable decrease of the Burst Blocking Probability and latency. In addition, this hybrid technology also improves the utilization of network resources.
