Avaliação de desempenho de algoritmos de alocação de recursos para redes ópticas multi – núcleos considerando os efeitos da camada física

Abstract

Elastic Optical Networks based on Multi-Core Fiber (MCF-EONs) have emerged as a promising solution to address the increasing Internet traffic demand, providing greater capacity and flexibility in communication networks. However, despite their great potential, MCF-EONs face significant challenges regarding the efficient allocation of resources, which can directly impact performance and Quality of Service (QoS). The objective of this work is to analyze and evaluate the performance of *routing, modulation, core, and spectrum allocation* (RMCSA) algorithms proposed in the literature through computa- tional simulations, focusing on the impact of physical layer impairments (PLIs) and the quality of transmission (QoT) of the selected optical paths. The main approach consists of assessing these algorithms in different scenarios, considering physical layer impair- ments. The numerical results contribute by quantifying the impact of these impairments on resource allocation algorithms, providing valuable insights for future optimizations in MCF-EONs
