Specifically, the notification control unit 26 transmits Busy information from the notification device 13 to the user terminal 3. At this time, the carrier interrupts the quality measurement of a user with a lower priority among the users who are measuring the quality of the transmission path, notifies them of the interruption information, and forcibly forces the measuring device 12 that was measuring the quality of the transmission path. It may be left vacant.

If there is no free space in the measurement devices 12a to 12n, congestion control, which will be described later, is performed.
- the user terminal authentication unit 22 extracts the terminal information carried on the optical signal received by the measuring device 12a, and acquires information about the connected user terminal 3a. Thereafter, the user terminal authentication unit 22 refers to the user terminal management unit 23 and collates the information with the acquired information of the user terminal 3a.
- the transmission path information estimating unit 25 acquires the actual device characteristics (data representing the relationship between BER and OSNR) of the measuring device 12a to which the connection request has arrived from the device characteristic holding unit 24, and uses the actual device characteristics of the measuring device 12a to The transmission quality of the transmission path 100a, which is the unmeasured section, is estimated (see FIG. 10).

- the transmission path information estimating unit 25 does not measure the quality of the transmission path if the elapsed time from the previous measurement time is less than or equal to the threshold and there is no information on construction, etc. related to the transmission path. Past measurement results may be reused. Furthermore, if the connection request is from a user terminal 3 that has been connected in the past, the transmission path information estimation unit 25 may reuse past measurement results.
- step S4 If there is no vacant space in the measurement devices 12a to 12n, the optical signal control unit 21 connects the user terminal 3a to the notification device 13 (see FIG. 11). Thereafter, the notification control unit 26 and the notification device 13 notify the user terminal 3a of the Busy information.
- the optical signal control unit 21 interrupts the quality measurement of a user with a lower priority among the users who are measuring the quality of the transmission path, and notifies them of the interruption information.
- the measuring device 12 may be forcibly made vacant.
- the user's priority is determined based on, for example, information registered in the user terminal management unit 23 and the priority explicitly specified by the user at the time of the connection request.
- step S5 After the measurement device 12 becomes available, the optical signal control unit 21 connects the notification device 13 to the user terminal 3 (user terminal 3a) for which user authentication and transmission quality estimation have not been completed (see FIG. 12). Thereafter, the notification control unit 26 and the notification device 13 transmit an OK signal to the user terminal 3a of the connection destination.
- the notification device 13 may notify the user to periodically attempt reconnection until one of the measurement devices 12a to 12n becomes available. Alternatively, the user himself/herself may attempt to reconnect periodically. In addition, the notification device 13 may estimate the time when the measuring devices 12a to 12n become available, notify the estimated time as the retry time, and control the user to attempt reconnection at the retry time.
- the optical signal control unit 21 may use the information of the user terminal 3 to schedule the connection time and assignment of the measurement device 12 for each user terminal.
- the user terminal 3 may transmit information indicating that the priority is high in the connection request signal and instruct the creation of a free measuring device so as to connect preferentially.
- the carrier may dynamically change the priority of the user terminals 3 according to the behavior of the user terminals 3, and connect user terminals 3 with higher priority preferentially.
- step S6 After the measuring devices 12a to 12n become vacant, the optical signal control unit 21 connects the vacant measuring device 12b to the user terminal 3 (user terminal 3a) for which user authentication and transmission quality estimation have not been completed, Information for connecting to the vacant measuring device 12b (for example, the location of the measuring device, slot number) is notified to the transmission path information estimating unit 25 (see FIG. 13).
- the transmission path information estimating unit 25 connects to the measuring device 12b notified from the optical signal control unit 21, and measures the transmission quality of the transmission path 100a, which is an unmeasured section of transmission quality. After completing the transmission quality measurement, the transmission path information estimating unit 25 may record the measurement result together with the measurement completion time.
- the optical signal control unit 21 establishes an optical path path related to the connection request of the user terminal 3a in the carrier network, and then controls the switching device 11 to connect the user terminal 3a to the carrier network (see FIG. 14). ).
- step S7 When an emergency communication occurs, the optical signal control unit 21 notifies the user terminals 3a to 3c that are currently measuring the quality of the transmission path, interrupting the quality measurement of the transmission path, and responds to the emergency connection request. Priority is given to quality measurement of such transmission paths (see FIG. 15).
- Congestion control Congestion control will be explained.
- the five congestion controls described below may be performed individually or in combination with two or more of the five congestion controls.
- the first congestion control method is a FIFO method in which connection requests are processed in the order of arrival (see FIGS. 16 to 18). Specifically, when a certain number of measuring devices 12 are not available and there are multiple connection requests, the user terminal 3 is connected to the vacant measuring devices 12 in the order in which the connection requests arrive.
- the connecting device 1 includes three measuring devices 12a to 12c. It is assumed that the three measurement devices 12a to 12c are line-synchronized with the respective user terminals 3a to 3c, and it takes several minutes to complete estimation of transmission quality from BER.
- step S101 When a connection request signal is received from the user terminal 3m while all three measurement devices 12a to 12c are in use (step S101), the optical signal control unit 21 notifies the user terminal 3m that it is busy. Connect to the device 13 (step S102).
- the notification control unit 26 and the notification device 13 notify the user terminal 3m of Busy information (step S103). For example, an AMCC/GCC/pilot tone indicating Busy and a signal OSC of a specific wavelength indicating Busy are transmitted.
- step S104 when a connection request signal is received from the user terminal 3n (step S104), the optical signal control unit 21 connects the user terminal 3n to the notification device 13 in order to notify that it is busy (step S105). Thereafter, the notification control unit 26 and the notification device 13 notify the user terminal 3n of the Busy information in the same manner as described above (step S106).
- the optical signal control unit 21 repeatedly switches the connection destination of the notification device 13 to the user terminal 3m or the user terminal 3n, and the notification control unit 26 and the notification device 13 periodically send a Busy signal until the measuring devices 12a to 12c become available. is transmitted to the user terminal 3m and the user terminal 3n.
- the optical signal control unit 21 connects the user terminal 3m to the measurement device 12c that becomes available (step S107), and then connects the user terminal 3n to the measurement device that becomes available. Connect to the device 12b (step S108).
- the second congestion control method is a preemptive method in which connection requests are processed in order of priority (see FIG. 19). Specifically, when a certain number of measuring devices 12 are not available and there are multiple connection requests including a connection request during transmission path quality measurement, the priority of the new connection request is set to transmission path quality measurement. If the priority is higher than that of the connection request in the middle, the connection destination of the measuring device 12 currently measuring the quality of the transmission path is switched to the user terminal making the new connection request.
- the optical signal control unit 21 determines that the quality of the connection request with a low priority is being measured.
- the connection destination of the measurement device 12c is switched from the user terminal 3c to the user terminal 3m (step S202), and the user terminal 3c is connected to the notification device 13 (step S203). Thereafter, the notification control unit 26 and the notification device 13 notify the user terminal 3c of the interruption of transmission path estimation (step S204).
- the third congestion control method is a control method that gives priority to urgent connection requests (see FIG. 20). Specifically, when the connection request from the user terminal 3 is an urgent connection request, the method is such that the user terminal 3 is connected to a measurement device among the fixed number of measurement devices 12 that is used only in an emergency.
- One or more of the plurality of measurement devices 12 is prepared for emergency connection.
- the measuring device 12a for emergency connection is not used in normal times, but only in emergencies.
- the optical signal control unit 21 connects the user terminal 3m to the emergency connection measuring device 12a (step S302).
- the fourth congestion control method is a control method that takes into consideration the final estimated time of transmission path quality (see FIGS. 21 to 23). Specifically, when a certain number of measuring devices 12 are not available, the user terminals 3 are connected to the vacant measuring devices 12 in descending order of completion time of the quality measurement of the transmission path in each measuring device.
- the transmission path information estimation unit 25 holds transmission path information such as measurement completion time of each transmission path 100a to 100c.
- the optical signal control unit 21 determines that for the transmission section of the transmission path 100c whose transmission path information was recently measured, there is almost no change in the transmission path information of that transmission section. Then, the user terminal 3m is connected to the measuring device 12c in order to yield the quality measurement process to the newly arrived connection request from the user terminal 3m (step S402).
- the fifth congestion control method is a time-specified control method that takes into consideration the final estimated time of the transmission path (see FIGS. 24 to 26). Specifically, in a case where a certain number of measuring devices 12 are not available, the user terminals 3 are connected to the vacant measuring devices 12 in the order of specified times of reconnection requests.
- the transmission path information estimation unit 25 holds transmission path information such as how many seconds ago measurement of each transmission path 100a to 100c was started. .
- the optical signal control unit 21 connects the user terminal 3m to the notification device 13 in order to notify that it is busy (step S502).
- the notification control unit 26 and the notification device 13 set the measurement completion time of the measurement device 12c, which becomes available earliest among the measurement devices 12a to 12c, as the reconnection time based on the transmission path information of the transmission path information estimation unit 25. , notifies the user terminal 3m of the reconnection time (step S503). For example, request reconnection at XX time 30 seconds later.
- the optical signal control unit 21 receives a reconnection request signal transmitted from the user terminal 3m at the reconnection time (step S504), and connects the user terminal 3m to the vacant measuring device 12c (step S505). ).
- users A to C are a group of users who have their own data centers outside the carrier network and can be connected via the carrier network. Since actual communication is performed in both directions, terminal authentication/transmission channel quality estimation is performed in each of section A and section B, but for the sake of simplicity, a specific example of section A will be explained. The same applies to section B. Only one measurement device 12 and one notification device 13 are each arranged in the carrier on the section A side.

- SLA_A Service Level Agreement
- SLA_B Service Level Agreement
- Information about each user terminal 3a to 3c (for example, user number, terminal ID, line ID, SLA, and port number of the switching device 11 to which the user terminal connects) is registered in the user terminal management unit 23.
- each of the users A to C connects their user terminals 3a to 3c to the carrier network and starts data transfer in order to back up their data.
- the user terminals 3a to 3c transmit connection requests within the carrier network (see FIG. 28).
- the optical signal control unit 21 detects connection requests from each of the user terminals 3a to 3c, and determines the user terminal 3 to be connected to the measurement device 12. In this embodiment, the optical signal control unit 21 determines the user terminal 3a with the largest SLA as the user terminal to be connected to the measuring device 12 first.
- the optical signal control unit 21 refers to the user terminal management unit 23, specifies the port number of the switching device 11 to which the user terminal 3a is connected, and connects the user terminal 3a to the measurement device 12.
- the optical signal control unit 21 controls the switching device 11 and the notification device 13, respectively, to temporarily connect to the notification device 13, and then Notify the Busy signal and retry time.
- the optical signal control unit 21 acquires the content of the connection request from the user terminal 3a that has arrived at the measurement device 12 and information about the user terminal 3a, and passes the acquired information to the user terminal authentication unit 22.
- the user terminal authentication unit 22 performs authentication with reference to the user terminal management unit 23 (see FIG. 29).
- the process moves to transmission path quality estimation processing. If the user terminal is not connectable, the optical signal control unit 21 uses the optical signal disconnection function of the switching device 11 to cut off the optical signal and refuse connection to the carrier network. At this time, the notification device 13 may transmit a connection rejection signal to notify the user terminal that the connection request has been rejected.
- the transmission path information estimation unit 25 estimates the transmission quality of the transmission path 100a to which the user terminal 3a is connected (see FIG. 30). Specifically, the transmission path information estimation section 25 queries the optical signal control section 21 about the BER recorded in the measurement device 12, acquires the actual device characteristics of the measurement device 12 from the device characteristics holding section 24, and stores this information. is used to estimate the transmission quality of the transmission path 100a in section A that connects the user terminal 3a and the carrier network.
- the optical signal control unit 21 searches for a route that can be opened within the carrier network or a route that satisfies the user's request for bandwidth, etc., and determines an appropriate route.
- the optical signal control unit 21 also estimates the transmission quality of the determined route.
- the optical signal control unit 21 sums up the transmission quality of each transmission section including the carrier network, and calculates the optimal transmission mode based on the summed value. Then, the optical signal control unit 21 sets and notifies the user terminal 3a of the calculated transmission mode.

Abstract
Description
本発明は、ダークファイバの伝送路を介してキャリアの光伝送網(以降、キャリア網)に接続された1つ以上のユーザ端末からの接続要求に基づき、最適に光パスを自動設定する技術に関する発明である。
図1は、本実施形態に係る光伝送システムの構成を示す図である。光伝送システムは、ユーザ端末3をキャリア網に接続する接続装置1と、接続装置1を制御する制御装置2と、を備える。光伝送システムは、1つの装置(接続用ノード)として実装してもよいし、ベンダの装置と組み合わせる形で実装してもよい。
ユーザ端末側の接続形態としては、1つの伝送路に1つのユーザ端末が接続する形態、1つの伝送路に1つ以上のユーザ端末が接続しかつ合波器を接続する形態、それら2つの形態が混在する形態がある。
図7は、光伝送システムの制御シーケンスを示す図である。
まず、キャリアがユーザからの接続要求を認識・検知する。具体的には、光信号制御部21が、接続要求の到着を示す光信号を監視する。また、ユーザは、キャリアとの通信専用API等を用いて、接続要求を送信したことをキャリアに通知する。
次に、ユーザの認証を実施する。具体的には、ユーザ端末認証部22が、接続要求を送信したユーザ端末3を端末IDや回線IDを基に認証する。ユーザ端末認証部22は、1つ以上のレイヤで1つ以上の認証(2段階認証等)を行ってもよい。
次に、キャリアがユーザの伝送路情報を測定・取得する。具体的には、伝送路情報推定部25が、接続要求を送信したユーザ端末3との間の伝送路100の品質を測定する。
測定装置12に空きがない場合、キャリアはユーザにBusy情報を通知する。具体的には、通知制御部26が、通知装置13からBusy情報をユーザ端末3へ送信する。このとき、キャリアは、伝送路の品質測定中のユーザのうち優先度が低いユーザの品質測定を中断して中断情報を通知し、伝送路の品質測定中であった測定装置12を強制的に空きとしてもよい。
ステップ4の後、ユーザは自分に順番が回ってきたこと、測定装置12に空きができたことを認識する。例えば、通知制御部26と通知装置13は、ユーザ端末3にOK信号を送信する。
ステップ5の後又は測定装置12に空きがあった場合、伝送路の測定実施を行う。具体的には、伝送路情報推定部25が、接続要求を送信したユーザ端末3との間の伝送路100の品質を測定する。伝送路情報推定部25は、測定結果を測定完了時間とともに記録してもよい。
ステップS1~S6は、通常時の接続要求を想定している。一方、緊急時の接続要求を受ける場合がある。このような緊急通信発生時には、制御装置2は、伝送路の品質測定進行中のユーザに対して中断/Busyの情報を通知して伝送路の品質測定を中断し、緊急接続要求に係る伝送路の品質測定を優先する。その後、制御装置2は、空いた測定装置を用いて中断していた品質測定を通常通り処理する。
ステップS1の具体的な処理;
ユーザ端末3aは、接続要求と端末情報を光信号に乗せ、その光信号をキャリア側に送信する(図8参照)。このとき、ユーザは、接続要求を送信したことを明示的にキャリア側に伝えてもよい。ユーザ端末3は、接続要求内に、接続要求の優先度(緊急接続したい等)や接続の目的(データの定期的なバックアップ等)を含めてもよい。
光信号制御部21は、測定装置12a~12nの空き状況を確認し、測定装置12a~12nに空きがある場合には、ユーザ端末3aを空きの測定装置12aに接続させる(図9参照)。測定装置12a~12nに空きがない場合には、後述の輻輳制御を実施する。
伝送路情報推定部25は、接続要求が到着した測定装置12aの実機特性(BERとOSNRの関係を表すデータ)を装置特性保持部24から取得し、その測定装置12aの実機特性を用いて、伝送品質未測定区間である伝送路100aの伝送品質を推定する(図10参照)。
測定装置12a~12nに空きがない場合には、光信号制御部21は、ユーザ端末3aを通知装置13に接続する(図11参照)。その後、通知制御部26と通知装置13は、ユーザ端末3aにBusy情報を通知する。
光信号制御部21は、測定装置12に空きができた後、ユーザ認証と伝送品質推定が完了していないユーザ端末3(ユーザ端末3a)と通知装置13を接続する(図12参照)。その後、通知制御部26と通知装置13は、接続先のユーザ端末3aにOK信号を送信する。
光信号制御部21は、測定装置12a~12nに空きができた後、ユーザ認証と伝送品質推定が完了していないユーザ端末3(ユーザ端末3a)と空きになった測定装置12bを接続し、その空き測定装置12bに接続するための情報(例えば、測定装置の場所、スロット番号)を伝送路情報推定部25に通知する(図13参照)。
緊急通信発生時には、光信号制御部21は、伝送路の品質測定進行中のユーザ端末3a~3cに対して中断/Busyの情報を通知して伝送路の品質測定を中断し、緊急接続要求に係る伝送路の品質測定を優先する(図15参照)。
輻輳制御について説明する。後述する5つの輻輳制御は、各輻輳制御を個々に単独で実施してもよいし、5つの輻輳制御のうち2つ以上の輻輳制御を組み合わせて実施してもよい。
第1の輻輳制御方法は、接続要求の到着順に処理するFIFO方式である(図16~図18参照)。具体的には、一定数の測定装置12に空きがない場合において、複数の接続要求があるとき、接続要求の到着順にユーザ端末3を空きになった測定装置12に接続する方式である。
第2の輻輳制御方法は、接続要求の優先度順に処理するPreemptive方式である(図19参照)。具体的には、一定数の測定装置12に空きがない場合において、伝送路の品質測定中の接続要求を含む複数の接続要求があるとき、新たな接続要求の優先度が伝送路の品質測定中の接続要求の優先度よりも高ければ、伝送路の品質測定中の測定装置12の接続先を新たな接続要求のユーザ端末に切り替える方式である。
第3の輻輳制御方法は、緊急の接続要求を優先する制御方式である(図20参照)。具体的には、ユーザ端末3からの接続要求が緊急性の接続要求である場合、そのユーザ端末3を一定数の測定装置12のうち緊急時にのみ使用する測定装置に接続する方式である。
第4の輻輳制御方法は、伝送路品質の最終推定時刻を考慮した制御方法である(図21~図23参照)。具体的には、一定数の測定装置12に空きがない場合において、各測定装置における伝送路の品質測定完了時刻の早い順にユーザ端末3を空きになった測定装置12に接続する方式である。
第5の輻輳制御方法は、伝送路の最終推定時刻を考慮した時刻指定型の制御方法である(図24~図26参照)。具体的には、一定数の測定装置12に空きがない場合において、再接続要求の指定時刻順にユーザ端末3を空きなった測定装置12に接続する方式である。
図27に示すように、ユーザA~Cは、キャリア網外に自社データセンタを持ち、キャリア網を経由してλ接続可能なユーザ群である。実際の通信は双方向で行われるため、区間Aと区間Bのそれぞれで端末認証/伝送路品質推定を行うが、簡単のため、区間Aの具体例を説明する。区間Bについても同様となる。測定装置12と通知装置13は、それぞれ、区間A側のキャリア内に1つのみ配置されている。
本実施形態によれば、制御装置2の光信号制御部21が、接続装置1において、ユーザ端末3からの接続要求を検知し、一定数の測定装置12に空きがある場合、当該ユーザ端末3を空きの測定装置12に接続し、一定数の測定装置12に空きがない場合、当該ユーザ端末3を通知装置13に一旦接続して測定装置12に空きがでたときに空きの測定装置12に接続し、接続した測定装置12による伝送路100の品質測定後、当該ユーザ端末3を光伝送網に接続するので、測定装置12の数量に上限がある場合であっても、1つ以上のユーザ端末3からの複数の接続要求に対して多くの光パスを自動設定可能となる。
本発明は、上記実施形態に限定されない。本発明は、本発明の要旨の範囲内で数々の変形が可能である。
