We investigate and compare three algorithms that are mostly intended for maximization of the amount of remaining bandwidth over a damaged network. They are: Path Protection (PP), Link Protection (LP), and Partial Path Protection (PPP) . M, DWDM) for applications in high-speed traveling-wave protection. This paper documents the performance, opportunities, and pitfalls associated with this application and outlines practical strategies for the seamless integration of protection systems with the neration of optical transport network. Resource Delayed Release (RDR) is a new idea to improve the Service Provisioning Time (SPT) by adding the concept of idle optical channels. In this paper. In metro WDM applications, WDM can directly provide bearer channels for services such as Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM), IP, and Synchronous Digital System (SDH) because of its open interface. To protect all the wavelengths in a WDM network having single fiber structure, p-cycles have to be established on.
