Research using OPNET: Protection for large scale optical mesh networks

The protection for optical networks has been largely studied. However, its application in large scale networks is still limited because the existing algorithms are not scalable for these networks. This research looks for a solution to protect in large scale optical mesh networks. In this research, OPNET will be used to model the network as well as the behavior of network optical nodes in order to evaluate the scalability of the proposed solution.
