ns-3 presently doesn't include any support for simulation of optical networks in the official distiribution, however there are modules under development. This page tracks info about modules for ns-3 developed in field of optics, including WDM and PON.

Optical Transport Network: Prototype WDM Network Simulator (PWNS)

PWNS project logo

Project name

Project name is made of is a parody on OWns[1], a project with similar goals implemented in ns-2.

Project scope

The goal of PWNS project is to implement models for WDM optical network components, including:

  • optical cable, optical fiber, wavelength channel,
  • multiplexer and demultiplexer, add-drop multiplexor,
  • wavelength converter, wavelength selective switch, arrayed waveguide grating,
  • optical cross connect (MEMS).

Prototype from June 2012 is described in [2]; more detailed description will be posted here as soon as possible.
