and find an expression for the control inputs Cl Ck Assume that if ci = 1, switch

i is set in the bar state, and if ci = 0, switch i is set in the cross state

Consider the fiber loop mirror shown in Figure 12.8, and show that the nonlinear element should introduce a phase shift of zr between the clockwise and counterclock- wise signals in order for all the energy entering the directional coupler from arm A

to be transferred to arm B

We have seen that many photonic packet-switching proposals use a lower-rate header compared to the payload Suppose the maximum header bit rate is 1 Gb/s and headers are 10 bytes long The payload data rate is 100 Gb/s

(a) We would like the duration of the payload to be 90% of the overall packet duration (including header and payload) What size does the payload need

to be?

(b) If we wanted the maximum payload size to be 1000 bytes and maintain the same efficiency, at what rate would the header have to be transmitted? (c) Suppose we need a minimum of 1 #s to process the header This time is accounted for as an additional guard band in the overall packet, in addition

to the header and payload Again, if we want to maintain the payload at 90% of the overall packet, and the header at 10 bytes at 1 Gb/s, what size does the payload need to be?

Considerations

I N build new networks or upgrade their networks to higher and higher capacities We T H I S CHAPTER, we will study some of the issues facing network operators as they will start by understanding how the network is changing from a services perspective, and then understand the changes happening to the network infrastructure Chapter 1 provided an overview of some of these changes, but we will examine them in detail

in this chapter We will try to understand the various architectural choices available

to carriers planning their next-generation networks, in terms of the roles played by SONET/SDH, IP, and ATM We will discuss the role played by the optical layer and the economic considerations underlying the deployment of WDM and TDM optical layer technologies in the network We will see that long-haul networks and metro networks have different requirements that influence the choice of technology deployed In general, it is difficult to decide between the different technologies, and network operators often employ sophisticated network design tools to help them understand the cost trade-offs between different approaches The examples and problems in this chapter will help the reader gain a better understanding of these trade-offs

13.1 The Evolving Telecommunications Network

The legacy transport network in place in networks run by established carriers is based on SONET and SDH Over the past decade, we have seen the WDM optical layer play an increasing role in these networks

667

Several factors are causing service providers to reexamine the way they build their transport network The first driver is obviously the enormous growth in network traffic Not only is the traffic doubling every year, but the traffic mix is unpredictable and changing Another driver is the increasing dominance of data traffic, particularly Internet traffic, relative to voice traffic Data traffic now exceeds voice traffic on the public network This trend is likely to continue for at least the next several years A third driver is the advent of increased competition, which is causing service providers to rethink how they deploy services In contrast to a world where a new service request for bandwidth could take weeks to months to be fulfilled and require long-term contractual agreements, service providers are increasingly entering a world where services need to be deployed rapidly without long-term contracts at highly competitive rates

Moreover, there is now a new generation of carriers who operate under signifi- cantly different business models than the established carriers These different business models require different architectures A carrier providing services to interconnect Internet service providers has very different requirements than a traditional carrier servicing voice and private circuit-switched lines We also now have a new set of carriers' carriers These are carriers providing bulk bandwidths (say, at 622 Mb/s and above) primarily to other carriers These carriers' carriers have different require- ments from carriers delivering low-speed services (such as 1.5 Mb/s lines) to their customers

Before we delve into the evolution of the network, it is worth looking at what carriers look for when they deploy equipment in their network At the end of the day, what they deploy must either enable them to reduce the cost of their network,

or enable them to generate revenue from new services enabled by the equipment

Capital cost is the up-front cost of deploying the equipment, and operations cost represents the recurring cost of maintaining and operating the network Capital cost includes the cost of the equipment, as well as the cost of real estate, providing for appropriate power and cooling and the fiber facilities In the case of transmission equipment, the goal is to minimize the cost per bit transmitted per mile in the network It is important to look at the initial entry cost, as well as the cost to add incremental capacity to already-deployed equipment

Operations cost includes real estate rental/lease costs; recurring costs of power and cooling; labor costs to provision, maintain, and service the equipment; and costs associated with replacing failed equipment and missing service-level agreements on network availability While most carriers will say that operations costs dominate over capital costs in their networks, capital costs are usually much easier to quantify, and hence many carriers use capital costs as the primary basis for making purchasing decisions

Looking at the revenue side of the equation, carriers are always on the lookout for generating new revenue streams by deploying new services These might include services tailored toward enabling new applications, for instance, providing storage networks between data centers, or modified versions of traditional services For instance, deploying equipment that enables a carrier to set up and take down private line circuit-switched services in minutes where needed would enable a carrier to offer short-term tariffs on these services, as opposed to requiring its customers to buy the service for extended durations Another benefit of this capability is that it reduces the time to deploy a service and extracts more revenue as a result Yet another benefit

is that it allows a carrier to better utilize its existing network resources, without having stranded bandwidth due to an inability to anticipate the traffic pattern in the network

The factors described above are forcing carriers to deploy networks that can scale

in capacity, networks that are flexible in that they are able to deliver a wide variety

the ability to deliver these high-speed circuit-switched services, and also serves as the transport mechanism for carrying multiplexed low-speed packet and circuit-switched services

13.1.1 The SONET/SDH Core Network

Figure 13.1(a) shows the core network of a typical established carrier The network consists of interconnected SONET rings Given today's capacity demands, many of the rings actually consist of multiple rings connecting the same set of nodes These

wavelengths within the same fibers using WDM Figure 13.1(b) shows a blowup of

a large node in this network The node has multiple W D M terminals (OLTs) Each ring passing through the node requires a SONET ADM These ADMs are connected

to the OLTs and operate at line rates of OC-48 (2.5 Gb/s) or OC-192 (10 Gb/s) The ADMs drop lower-speed traffic streams, ranging from 45 Mb/s DS3 streams to higher-speed 622 Mb/s OC-12 streams The lower-speed traffic is handled by digital crossconnect systems (DCSs) Data traffic is brought into the network through these lower-speed signals and multiplexed to higher speeds by the SONET ADMs and the DCSs This data enters the network typically in the form of private lines, such as DS1, DS3 or El, E3 lines, or directly at other SONET/SDH rates These rates are well defined and mapped into the SONET/SDH multiplexing structure Other data traffic, such as IP traffic from routers or ATM traffic from ATM switches, can be brought into the network via DS1/DS3 lines or higher-speed optical signals such as OC-3, OC-12, and carried over the SONET/SDH infrastructure
