Abstract

We propose a minimum-free-spectrum-block-consumption algorithm (MFSB) for shared-path protection with joint failure probability requirements in flexible bandwidth optical networks. Compared with conventional algorithms, MFSB efficiently decreases the spectrum block consumption and achieves higher spectrum utilization.
