Wavelength switched optical
network (WSON)
Wavelength switched
optical network (WSON) is a type of telecommunications network.
A WSON consist of two planes: the data and the control planes. The
data plane comprises wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) fiber
links connecting optical cross-connect (OXCs) through a comb of
several tens of wavelength channels, with typical data rates of 10
or 40 Gbit/s. Optical end-to-end connections (i.e., lightpaths) are
established in the optical domain and switched by OXCs at the
wavelength granularity.
The dynamic provisioning and maintenance of lightpaths is managed by
the control plane. The control plane is implemented on a separate
network and typically employs one network controller for each node
in the data plane, as shown in the figure. The Generalized
Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) protocol suite, the de facto
standard control plane for WSONs proposed by the IETF, is composed
of three protocols.
