Abstract
The present invention discloses a method and a system for shared protection in WDM loop network. The WDM loop network comprises at least one node, and each node is divided into a multiplexing segment layer, a channel layer and a sub-wavelength layer. The method for shared protection comprises the following steps: A, the multiplexing segment layer, the channel layer and the sub-wavelength layer of each node are detected respectively; B, the detection point generates fault information when at least one of the multiplexing segment layer, the channel layer and the sub-wavelength layer goes wrong; and a controller of each node, according to the fault information, determines the protection control state of the present node and notifies the respective executor; wherein the protection control state includes service adding, service passing through, and service dropping; C, the executor of each node controls the corresponding node to switch to the protection control state determined in step B. The present invention realizes the shared protection in sub-wavelength level.
