Quality aware path finding algorithm for mixed line rates WDM/DWDM networks

The optical network plays a vital role in the current technology for providing high-speed data communication, which the networks operate at Tb/s. In this case, different modulation techniques can be used for different line rates to achieve high-speed data transmission. The light paths and various data rates such as 10, 40, and 100 Gb/s are the important parameters for mixed line rate networks. The wavelengths and line rates are powerful tools for mixed line rates networks. It can exist on different optical fibers. In this paper, advanced modulation techniques achieve a relative performance with the required Q-factor. This paper analysis for different matrix computations to achieve a superior Q-factor. It can affect the data rates and quality of transmission. This paper also proposed an algorithm that can improve the Q-factor. Q-factor is analyzed and proposes routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) techniques based on the Q-factor obtained at different line rates. This paper is a brief overview of a quality-aware path-finding algorithm for mixed line rates WDM/DWDM networks are present and discussed.
