Research Initiation Award:Implications of Growth in Lightwave Networks

9309701 Tonguz由于光纤技术的限制，光波网络规模的增长带来了重大挑战。 光学设备（如接入耦合器）、调制和检测格式以及接入方法都是网络增长过程中的重要因素。 本提案的主要目的是在考虑到所有这些因素的情况下找到解决这一问题的办法。 特别是，可扩展和模块化网络和主要网络设计参数（如所需的光纤数量，平均传播延迟，多节点故障的容错能力，最大比特率，可维护性，所需的接入耦合器的类型和数量，接入延迟，最大吞吐量和所需的缓冲区大小）之间的关系将被检查和量化。 因此，可以在不同的环境和应用中以具体的方式处理网络增长问题。 *** v S t VM A@ MER Los 4` 8 625 ;q B 9309701 Tonguz由于光纤的局限性，光波网络规模的增长带来了重大挑战。 # 2 # $ ( F / # 2 # / 1件 Symbol Arial 5 Cash New " H O O ( 我 R:\WW20USER\ABSTRACT.DOT 卡桑德拉女王卡桑德拉女王

9309701 Tonguz The growth of the size of lightwave networks presents major challenges because of the limitations of fiber optics technology. Optical devices (such as access couplers), modulation and detection format employed, and access methods used are all important factors in this network growth process. The main objective of this proposal is to find solutions to this problem taking into account all these factors. In particular, the relationship between scalable and modular networks and the main network design parameters (such as amount of fiber required, average propagation delay, fault tolerance to multiple node failures, maximum bit rate, maintainability, type and number of access couplers required, access delay, maximum throughtput, and required buffer size) will be examined and quantified. Thus, the network growth problem can be handled in a concrete way in different enviroments and applications. *** v s t VM A@ MER LOS 4` 8 625 ;q B 9309701 Tonguz The growth of the size of lightwave networks presents major challenges because of the limitations of fiber opti # 2 # $ ( F / # 2 # / 1 Courier Symbol & Arial 5 Courier New " h o o ( I R:\WW20USER\ABSTRACT.DOT Cassandra Queen Cassandra Queen
