Research on Topoloty Reconstruction Mechanism Based on Traffic Identification

<p align="justify">Due to the growing variety of data center services, the bursty and variability of data traffic is increasing. In order to make the network better meet the needs of upper-layer services, it is necessary to design a more flexible optical internet topology reconstruction mechanisms to adapt the changing traffic demands. In the past research on optical internet, all topology reconstruction mechanisms are designed based on global data traffic. Although these mechanisms can fully utilize the flexibility of the data center optical interconnection network topology and adjust topology in real time according to the traffic demands, but when the traffic is presented at the regional level, this mechanism does not give optimal results. This paper proposes a topology reconstruction mechanism for data center optical interconnection network based on traffic identification for the previously proposed data center optical switching architecture—OpenScale. The simulation results show that it utilizes the flexibility of the network to save bandwidth resources and increase the wavelength connection bandwidth utilization with a little sacrifice of throughput.</p>

Effect of Link Misalignment in the Optical-Internet of Underwater Things

Underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC) enables high-speed links in water for the optical Internet of Underwater Things (O-IoUT) networks. O-IoUT provides various marine applications, including ocean exploration, environmental monitoring, and underwater navigation. O-IoUT typically utilizes light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and different laser diodes (LDs) such as green/blue lasers to achieve efficient data communication in the underwater environment. The high-speed optical communication is limited up to a few tens of meters due to underwater channel impairments and misalignment between the transmitter (Tx) and the receiver (Rx). UWOC provides high-speed communications only in the line of sight conditions, and a small misalignment between the Tx and the Rx can degrade the system performance. In an attempt to understand and minimize this misalignment issue, we investigate how received power in a UWOC system depends on the transmitted beam’s divergence angle. Simulation results are provided to show the effectiveness of the study by comparing the plane, Gaussian, and spherical beams. Monte Carlo simulations are utilized to determine the maximum allowable lateral offset between Tx and Rx for a given Tx divergence angle. The results provide an overview and design-based trade-off between different parameters such as lateral offset, the power received, and bandwidth of the channel. The proposed method improves not only the maximum allowed link-span but also the bandwidth of the channel for a given transmission distance.

The accuracy of the localization techniques for OIoUT greatly relies on the location of the anchors.

Indeed, in a network of densely populated smart objects, the data collected by some sensors are more valuable than the data collected from other sensors.
