Investigation of Blocking Performance in GMPLS Networks

Abstract The call blocking is the most vital factor in generalized multiprotocol label switching (GMPLS) Networks. Call blocking depends upon many factors such as traffic intensity, number of servers and number of links. Call blocking performance for GMPLS networks has been calculated in this paper by using a proposed mathematical model. The proposed model investigates the dependency of probability of call blocking upon the number of wavelengths and number of links. In the suggested model, the blocking performance of GMPLS network is improved.
