Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new dynamic traffic grooming approach to known duration connection, which exploit a cost function to induce to traffic balancing in WDM mesh optical networks. The main contribution of the proposed approach is to allow a better traffic distribution on the network to reducing the demands rejection rate. We compared the performance of our algorithm to original HTA and results show significant improvements in blocking probability of connections, which highlights the benefits of the proposed approach.
