Elastic optical networks (EONs) are a promising technology for the development of flexible and wideband communication systems. The (FSU) frequency slot unit concept is used in this technology to define the bandwidth unit in the frequency domain. The use of a specified number of consecutive FSUs allows bandwidth to be assigned to a data stream in a flexible manner. Nonblocking optical switching networks are required for a successful elastic optical network operation. This article concentrates on the Wavelength Space Wavelength,Space, Wavelength switching network topologies that were previously presented. In comparison to the other architectures, the SSW switching fabric requires fewer Spectrum converters (SCs). n relation to Wavelength Space Wavelength, a prior study clarified that using the meta-slot approach reduces hardware complexity, which is measured by the number of frequency slot unit. A frequency range with one or more (FSUs) is called a meta-slot. The previous study did not discuss how to optimize the meta-slot class sizes, despite the fact that its effectiveness depends on the sizes of the meta-slot classes. Additionally, the use of meta-slots for Space Space Wavelength was not taken into account in the earlier analysis. The optimization of meta-slot class sizes is looked into in this study, and it is shown that this optimization may be modeled as the shortest path issue. For Wavelength Space Wavelength, the previously reported nonblocking conditions are contrasted with the meta-slot scheme optimized using the shortest path model. The outcome attests to the optimized meta-slot scheme's superiority. The distribution of meta-slots among S-switches is also crucial for Space Space Wavelength. The assignment of meta-slots is modeled as a bin-packing problem in the study. Thus, a well-known bin-packing heuristic can be used to find the assignment that is close to ideal. The number of S-switches is calculated for using the optimized meta-slot scheme and previously known nonblocking conditions. The outcome confirms that the meta-slot scheme benefits both Space, Wavelength and Wavelength Space Wavelength. |
