Study on optimum ring path search based on hybrid ant colony algorithm in optical networks
Path assignment is a core issue for optical ring networks.On the basis of the characteristics of the Genetic Algorithm(GA)
Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO)algorithm and Ant Colony Algorithm(ACA)
this paper proposes a novel hybrid ACA algorithm incorporating PSO and ant GA and searches the optimal ring path in optical networks.Simulation results indicate that the proposed algorithm outperforms the basic ACA and the hybrid GA and PSO algorithm in terms of convergence speed and the search results
