生成式人工智能(GenAI)的快速发展正推动各领域技术变革。作为宽带通信骨干的光网络,亟需高阶自治与零接触管理以应对不断扩展的规模和日益增长的传输带宽。集成GenAI被视为实现零接触光网络的关键方案。然而,光网络生命周期涉及大量任务且需跨层级无缝协作,现有单智能体GenAI系统难以胜任。本文提出一种生成式AI驱动的分层多智能体框架,用于实现零接触光网络的多任务自主执行。通过一个现场部署的网状网络,验证了该框架在规划阶段的传输质量估计、运行阶段的动态信道增删以及升级阶段的系统容量提升三个典型场景中的应用。案例研究展示了多智能体在任务分配、协调、执行、评估与总结方面的能力。本工作为未来智能化、高效化、协同化的网络管理提供了可行路径,推动更专业、自适应的零接触光网络发展。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
The rapid development of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) has catalyzed a transformative technological revolution across all walks of life. As the backbone of wideband communication, optical networks are expecting high-level autonomous operation and zero-touch management to accommodate their expanding network scales and escalating transmission bandwidth. The integration of GenAI is deemed as the pivotal solution for realizing zero-touch optical networks. However, the lifecycle management of optical networks involves a multitude of tasks and necessitates seamless collaboration across multiple layers, which poses significant challenges to the existing single-agent GenAI systems. In this paper, we propose a GenAI-driven hierarchical multi-agent framework designed to streamline multi-task autonomous execution for zero-touch optical networks. We present the architecture, implementation, and applications of this framework. A field-deployed mesh network is utilized to demonstrate three typical scenarios throughout the lifecycle of optical network: quality of transmission estimation in the planning stage, dynamic channel adding/dropping in the operation stage, and system capacity increase in the upgrade stage. The case studies, illustrate the capabilities of multi-agent framework in multi-task allocation, coordination, execution, evaluation, and summarization. This work provides a promising approach for the future development of intelligent, efficient, and collaborative network management solutions, paving the way for more specialized and adaptive zero-touch optical networks.
