Abstract: Optical burst switching networks have received a lot of attention in the research community during the recent years. The JET protocol, first proposed by Qiao and Yoo in 1997, is used for resource allocation in these networks. Up to the present, the JET protocol has been studied in networks that use wavelength conversion. In this paper the JET protocol is studied in optical networks, where wavelength conversion is not possible, and thus the used wavelength channel is fixed at the edge router. To compensate for the missing wavelength conversion, fiber delay lines are used as optical buffers. The numerical results obtained suggest that with fiber delay lines the loss probability can be considerably decreased, and that the loss probability is more fairly distributed among different connections.
