  Abstract

Failures in optical networks that have huge transmission capability provoke service discontinuity and thus large economical damage. Even though many algorithms are proposed for protection and restoration on a single failure, there are few algorithms for multiple failures. Eulerian tour is known to be effective to protect and restore a single failure in the literature. This paper proposes an algorithm that can perform efficient protection and restoration for multiple failures based on combined Eulerian tours. The proposed one is very effective on protection and restoration in general cases with two failures, and the comprehensive computer simulation shows that the restoration rate increases up to about 90%.
