Method, device and system for group optical channel shared protection

摘要

The present invention discloses a method and system for group optical channel shared protection. In the invention, when a failure occurs, operations are performed on an optical wavelength group, and four actions are accomplished at the time of switching: switching the affected optical wavelength group on the working fiber to a backup fiber (Steer); switching the optical wavelength group whose destination node is the current node on the backup fiber to the working fiber (Copy); making the optical wavelength group whose destination node is not the current node on the backup fiber transparently pass through the current node (Pass Through); and blocking or stripping the backup wavelength group transferred on the backup fiber (Strip). In addition, the invention further discloses a plurality of node structures for realizing the above operations.
