Abstract:

The current routing algorithms of label switching path (LSP) used in multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) networks may result in the interference between different selected LSPs and in a low utilization rate of network resources. In order to solve these problems, a novel minimum interference routing algorithm based on the channel resistance is presented. In this algorithm, the channel resistance is defined and calculated for each link be- tween different source-destination pairs, thus obtaining the resistance distribution on each edge. Moreover, the link resistance is considered as the weight to find the minimum interference path via the Dijkstra algorithm. Simulated results show that the proposed algorithm has better anti-interference and network resource balancing performances.
