An optical network includes multiple source, cross connect, and destination nodes. A traffic demand matrix is constructed for each possible pair of combinations of the source nodes and the destination nodes. A first energy reduction metric is determined for creating the bypass between the source node and any XC node based on the traffic demand matrix, and a second energy reduction metric is determined for creating the bypass between any XC node and the destination node using the traffic demand matrix. Then, a bypass that terminates at one of the XC nodes that has a largest energy reduction metric is created. |
