Popis: Data centers based on Passive Optical Networks (PONs) can provide high capacity, low cost, scalability, elasticity and high energy-efficiency. This paper introduces the use of WDM-TDM multiple access in a PON-based data center that offers multipath routing via two-tier cascaded Arrayed Waveguide Grating Routers (AWGRs) to improve the utilization of resources. A Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) model is developed to optimize resource allocation while considering multipath routing. The results show that all-to-all connectivity is achieved in the architecture through the use of two different wavelength within different time slots for the communication between racks in the same or different cells, as well as with the OLT switches.
