No. of bitstreams: 1 Luiz Antonio Fossaluzza junior.pdf: 4580835 bytes, checksum: 4fdd68a1c6733e08c016db3e5dd34d0b (MD5) Previous issue date: 2012-11-23 / This work investigates a technique to encrypt the optical signal for Transparent Optical Network, TON, in order to safeguard the confidentiality and guarantee the security of informations that are transmitted through the Telecommunications Network. The technique is assessed on the physical layer of the reference model for open systems interconnection, OSI, and consists of slicing spectrally optical signal and to apply various attenuations and delays to each of the slices spectral considered. These slices are multiplexed and the resulting signal, which will be propagated by an optical network transparent, it will be ideally unintelligible to eavesdropper who try to steals it. At this point is possible to evaluate the quality of the encryption used by measuring the output of the encoder the bit error rate, BER, the encrypted signal, BERC. In principle, as highest BERC,it will be lowest the probability of an eavesdropper decode the signal. To get to your destination, the signal is received in the decoder circuit, which has the same physical structure of the circuit which encoded the original signal. The application of the factors of attenuation and delay in this distorted signal is adjusted for the reconstruction of optical signal generated by the transmitter. On the output of decoder, performs the measurement of BER of signal decoded, the BERD. Ideally, BERD must be the lowest possible. For technique evaluation, it was simulated, with the version 8.7 of the software VPITransmissionMaker, of company VPIPhotonics Inc, the operation of the devices of cryptography, propagation and the elements of decoded signal. All simulations considered that the spectral slicing was carried out by means of filters with ideal profile. The results indicates that the BERC may reach up to 42% and 24%, to encrypted signals with modulation on-off Keying non return to zero (NRZ-OOK) and differential quadrature phase shift keying (DQPSK) respectively, and that both are free of errors (BERD< 10-15 for the signal NRZ-OOK and BERD< 10-6 for DQPSK modulation) when decoded. / Este trabalho aborda uma t?cnica para criptografar o sinal ?ptico em redes ?pticas transparentes (Transparent Optical Network, TON), de modo a salvaguardar o sigilo e garantir a seguran?a das informa??es que s?o transmitidas atrav?s da Rede de Telecomunica??es. A t?cnica avaliada ? relativa ? camada f?sica do modelo de refer?ncia para interconex?o de sistemas abertos (open systems interconnection, OSI) e consiste em dividir espectralmente um sinal ?ptico e em aplicar diferentes atenua??es e atrasos a cada uma das fatias espectrais consideradas. A seguir essas fatias s?o multiplexadas e o sinal resultante, que ser? propagado por uma rede ?ptica transparente, estar? idealmente inintelig?vel para intrusos que tentem furt?-lo. Nesse ponto ? poss?vel avaliar a qualidade da criptografia utilizada, medindo-se na sa?da do codificador a taxa de erro de bit (bit error rate, BER) do sinal criptografado, BERC. Em princ?pio, quanto maior BERC, menor a probabilidade de um intruso decodificar o sinal. Ao chegar ao seu destino, o sinal ? recebido no circuito decodificador, que possui a mesma estrutura f?sica do circuito que codificou o sinal original. A aplica??o dos fatores de atenua??o e atraso neste sinal distorcido ? ajustada para a reconstru??o do sinal ?ptico gerado pelo transmissor. Na sa?da do decodificador, efetua-se a medi??o da BER do sinal decodificado, BERD. Idealmente, BERD deve ser a menor poss?vel. Para avalia??o da t?cnica, simulou-se, com a vers?o 8.7 do software VPITransmissionMaker, da empresa VPIPhotonics Inc, a opera??o dos dispositivos de criptografia, da propaga??o e dos elementos de decriptografia do sinal. Todas as simula??es consideraram que o fatiamento espectral foi realizado por meio de filtros com perfil ideal. Os resultados indicam que a BERC pode atingir at? 42% e 24%, para sinais codificados com modula??o n?o retorno ao zero com chaveamento on-off (non return to zero on-off keying, NRZ-OOK) e por deslocamento de fase diferencial em quadratura (differential quadrature phase shift keying, DQPSK) respectivamente, e que ambos n?o apresentam erros (BERD< 10-15 para o sinal NRZ-OOK e BERD< 10-6 para a modula??o DQPSK) quando decodificados.

It is, thus, intended to prevent eavesdroppers to capture and retrieve optical signals. The technique consists in dividing an optical signal into several spectral slices and applying different attenuation and delays to each of them. After this process the signal is again multiplexed and transmitted through the considered TON. At this point the signal is ideally unintelligible to any receiver who does not know the encryption key, i.e. the set of utilized attenuations and delays. To evaluate the strength of such key, we measure the bit error rate (Bit Error Rate, BER) of the encoded signal, BERC. Generally speaking, the higher BERC, the lower is the chance of the encrypted signal being decoded by an eavesdropper. At the authorized receiver side, signal is again divided into spectral slices which are subjected to a set of attenuations and delays that are complementary to the ones utilized as the encryption key. All slices are again multiplexed and, as a result, at the output of the decoder the original encoder input signal is ideally reconstructed. The quality of the decoded signal is measured by evaluating the BER of the decoded signal, BERd, which should be low enough to allow proper reception of the signal transmitted by the TON. Simulations with the software VPITransmissionMaker, VPIPhotonics Company Inc., were used to investigate the performance of the technique for different gains and delays. For the operation of spectral slicing, the profiles of the utilized filters were adjusted to represent the ones of state-of-the-art off-the-shelf equipment. Results indicate that BERC may reach values of up to 42% and 32% for non-return to zero (NRZ) and differential quadrature phase shift keying (DQPSK) signals, respectively. In both of these cases it was possible to find results of BERd lower than 10-12, after properly adjusting the spacing between the filters; this was observed even for propagation over amplified standard fiber links with lengths as long as 400 km. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that such analyses are presented. / Neste trabalho avaliamos uma t?cnica para realizar a criptografia totalmente ?ptica em redes ?pticas transparentes. Dessa maneira, pretende-se impedir que um intruso consiga capturar e analisar o sinal ?ptico. A t?cnica consiste em dividir um sinal ?ptico em diversas fatias espectrais e aplicar diferentes atenua??es e atrasos a cada uma delas. Ap?s este processo o sinal ? novamente multiplexado e transmitido por uma rede ?ptica transparente. Neste ponto o sinal est? idealmente inintelig?vel para qualquer receptor que n?o conhe?a a chave criptogr?fica (conjunto de atenua??es e atrasos) utilizada. Para avaliar a for?a da chave criptogr?fica, mede-se a taxa de erros de bit (Bit Error Rate, BER) do sinal codificado, BERC. De forma geral, quanto maior BERC, menor ? a chance de o sinal ser decodificado por um receptor n?o autorizado. Na decodifica??o o sinal ? novamente dividido em fatias espectrais, e para todas as fatias s?o aplicados valores distintos de atenua??o e atraso de forma a reconstituir o sinal de entrada. Na sa?da do decodificador, avalia-se a BER do sinal decodificado BERD, que deve ser suficientemente baixa para permitir a recep??o do sinal transmitido pela TON. Simula??es com o software VPITransmissionMaker, da empresa VPIPhotonics Inc, foram utilizadas para investigar o desempenho da t?cnica para diferentes ganhos e atrasos. Para a opera??o de fatiamento espectral, os perfis dos filtros usados foram ajustados para representar equipamentos de mercado. Resultados indicam que BERC pode atingir valores de at? 42% e 32% para sinais com modula??o non return to zero - on-off keying (NRZ-OOK) e por deslocamento de fase diferencial em quadratura (differential quadrature phase shift keying, DQPSK), respectivamente. Em ambos os casos foi poss?vel encontrar resultados de BERd inferiores a 10-12, mediante ajuste adequado do espa?amento entre os filtros, mesmo ap?s 400 km de propaga??o por enlaces de fibra padr?o. No melhor de nosso conhecimento, esta ? a primeira vez que tais an?lises s?o apresentadas.

Moreover, each individual channels may carry over 200 Gb/s and occupy a bandwidth that exceeds the 50-GHz WDM fixed grid. In this scenario, spectral efficiency becomes an important issue and new channel allocation schemes need to be considered. An attractive solution for this problem is the utilization of a WDM grid with variable channel spacing, in the so-called elastic optical network (EON) approach. The main goal of this work is to propose algorithms to solve the spectral efficiency issue in emerging optical WDM networks. Such proposals are divided in two classes. The first one consists of allocating different spectral blocks for channels with different bit rates; this is named as the spectrum block division (SBD) scheme. The second class of our proposals is based on EON schemes. In this case, not only the enhancement of a previously reported algorithm, the Maximize Total Link Spectrum Consecutiveness (MTLSC) algorithm, is considered but also a new algorithm, the Shortest Path with Maximum number of Free Frequency Slot Units (SPMFF) is proposed. Another contribution of this work is the development of an EON simulator, called EONSim, based on JAVA programming language. This simulator was properly tested and reproduced the results of literature papers within a very good accuracy. All of our results were obtained with the aid of EONSim and suggest that the proposed algorithms yield a bandwidth occupation gain that varies from 7 to 18% higher than the one provided by traditional first-fit (FF) algorithms. Such algorithms also provide a blocking probability that is 2 to 8% lower than in FF strategy. On the other hand, it is found that algorithms with higher spectral efficiency use an average number of hops that is up to 16% higher than those necessary for algorithms that do not take bandwidth into account in channel allocation. / Novas redes ?pticas de multiplexa??o por divis?o de comprimento de onda (Wavelength Division Multiplexing, WDM) podem utilizar v?rios canais com taxas diferentes de bits. Al?m disso, cada um dos canais individuais pode transportar mais de 200 Gb/s e ocupar uma largura de banda que excede a grade fixa de 50 GHz da rede WDM. Neste cen?rio, a efici?ncia espectral torna-se uma quest?o importante e novos esquemas de aloca??o de canais precisam ser considerados. Uma solu??o atrativa para este problema ? a utiliza??o de uma rede WDM com espa?amento de canal vari?vel, na abordagem chamada rede ?ptica el?stica (EON). O principal objetivo do presente trabalho ? propor algoritmos para resolver a quest?o da efici?ncia espectral em redes ?pticas WDM emergentes. Tais propostas s?o divididas em duas classes. A primeira consiste em alocar diferentes blocos de espectro para canais com diferentes taxas de bits, o que ? apontado como esquema de divis?o de blocos de espectro (Spectrum Block Division, SBD). A segunda classe ? baseada em esquemas de EON. Neste caso, n?o s? o aperfei?oamento de um algoritmo previamente descrito por WANG (2012), o algoritmo Maximize Total Link Spectrum Consecutiveness (MTLSC), ? considerado, mas tamb?m um novo algoritmo, o Shortest Path with Maximum number of Free Frequency Slot Units (SPMFF) ? proposto. Outra contribui??o deste trabalho ? o desenvolvimento de um simulador de EON, chamado EONSim, com base na linguagem de programa??o JAVA. Este simulador foi devidamente testado e foram reproduzidos os resultados de WANG (2012) dentro de uma precis?o muito boa. Todos os resultados foram obtidos com a ajuda de EONSim e sugerem que os algoritmos propostos produzem um ganho de ocupa??o de banda, que varia de 7 a 18% mais elevada do que a fornecida pelo tradicional algoritmo First Fit (FF). Tais algoritmos tamb?m proporcionam uma probabilidade de bloqueio, que ? de 2 a 8% mais baixa do que na estrat?gia FF. Por outro lado, verifica-se que os algoritmos de melhor ocupa??o espectral utilizam um n?mero m?dio de saltos at? 16% mais elevado do que os necess?rios para os algoritmos de menor caminho, que n?o levam em conta a largura de banda de atribui??o de canal.

This fixed-grid condition limits the number of lightpath for each optical fiber (80 channels in c-band) and doesn t allow bit rates with bandwidth over 50 GHz. To improve these factors, the flexibly grid elastic optical network (EON) was proposed, aiming accommodate adequately bit rates demand by customers. This proposal allows efficiency bandwidth and also expands bit rates supported by network. The EON bandwidth efficiency is obtained by routing and spectrum assignment (RSA) algorithm which acts to maximize the bandwidth utilization. Even with RSA, EON still show fragmentation rates substantial. In this context, this work proposes a new elastic optical network defragmentation strategy. This defragmentation strategy selects the lightpaths from the most fragmented link. The defragmentation process is based on RSA (DF-RSA). The DF-RSA determines the new position to reallocate the connection selected and performs. Using computer simulation of EON operation, were submitted several bit rates demands with different modulations format and traffic load between 45 and 100 erlang. Two simulation scenarios were proposed. The first one, compare the performance of RSA algorithm first-fit (FF) with and without defragmentation. It was considered as defragmentation process beginning point (trigger), the number of release connections. This scenario had until 48% of relative gain on minimizing blocking probability. The second scenario compared the performance of the follows RSA algorithms: FF, Maximize Path Spectrum Consecutiveness (MPSC) and Fragmentation Aware (FA). The FF was evaluated with and without defragmentation process and the others just with defragmentation process. The trigger employed was eventual connection blocked. The second scenario reached over the 80% blocking probability relative gain in 50 erlang traffic load. We conclude that the new elastic optical network defragmentation offers substantial gain bandwidth utilization and consequently blocking probability reduction. / As redes ?pticas de multiplexa??o por divis?o de comprimento de onda (WDM) acomodam o tr?fego em canais fixos de 100, 50 e 25 GHz. Esta condi??o de grade fixa limita o n?mero de conex?es por fibra ?ptica (80 canais na banda C), e n?o permite taxas de transmiss?o com ocupa??o espectral acima de 50 GHz. Para melhorar estes fatores, foram propostas as redes ?pticas el?sticas (EON) com canais flex?veis, visando acomodar adequadamente as taxas de transmiss?o demandas pelos usu?rios. Esta proposta possibilita maior efici?ncia espectral e tamb?m amplia as taxas de transmiss?o suportadas pela rede. A efici?ncia espectral nas EONs ? obtida com os algoritmos de roteamento e atribui??o espectral (Routing and Spectrum Assignment, RSA), que atuam para maximizar seu uso espectral. Mesmo com o uso de RSAs, as EONs ainda apresentam ?ndices de fragmenta??o consider?veis. Neste contexto, este trabalho prop?e uma nova estrat?gia de desfragmenta??o espectral para EONs. Esta proposta de desfragmenta??o seleciona as conex?es do enlace mais fragmentado, para o processo de desfragmenta??o. A desfragmenta??o baseia seu processo de realoca??o de conex?es por RSA, denominado DF-RSA. O DF-RSA determina a nova posi??o e realiza a realoca??o das conex?es. Com o uso de simula??o computacional da opera??o de funcionamento da EON, foram submetidas v?rias demandas de taxas de transmiss?o com diferentes modula??es e cargas de tr?fego entre 45 e 100 erlang. Foram propostos dois cen?rios de simula??o. No primeiro, foi comparado o desempenho do algoritmo RSA First-Fit (FF) com e sem o processo de desfragmenta??o. Considerou-se como ponto de inicio das desfragmenta??es (gatilho), o n?mero de conex?es liberadas da rede. Neste cen?rio obteve-se at? 48% de ganho relativo na minimiza??o da probabilidade de bloqueio. No segundo cen?rio, foram comparados os desempenhos dos seguintes algoritmos RSAs: FF, Maximize Path Spectrum Consecutiveness (MPSC) e Fragmentation Aware (FA). O FF foi avaliado com e sem desfragmenta??o e os demais somente com desfragmenta??o. Empregou-se como gatilho o eventual bloqueio de conex?o. O segundo cen?rio alcan?ou mais de 80% de ganho relativo de probabilidade de bloqueio para carga de tr?fego de 50 erlang. Conclui-se que a nova estrat?gia de desfragmenta??o para EONs oferece ganhos consider?veis na utiliza??o espectral e, consequentemente, redu??o na probabilidade de bloqueio.
