Study of the Applications of Automatically Switched Optical Network

摘要

In this paper, an analysis of networking and the possible applications of the automatically switched optical network (ASON) in the telecommunication network are provided. The following contents are included: First, several networking applications of ASON network is studied, and differences between them are compared; Second, the possible applications of these models in the telecommunication network are analyzed. Finally, how to evolution to ASON and the incremental services provided by ASON is discussed.
