MUMBAI, India, Aug. 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202411085075 A) filed by Ciena Corporation on November 06, 2024, for Delay-Based Availability As A Te Attribute For Segment Routing.

Inventors include Pankaj Verma; and Aditya Mittal.

The application for the patent was published on August 14, 2026, under issue no. 33/2026.

Abstract: ABSTRACT DELAY-BASED AVAILABILITY AS A TE ATTRIBUTE FOR SEGMENT ROUTING Systems and methods for delay-based availability include performing (102) delay measurements with one or more nodes (12) in a Segment Routing network (10) on corresponding links (14) to the one or more nodes (12); utilizing (104) the delay measurements to determine delay-based availability of the corresponding links (14) to the one or more nodes (12), wherein the delay-based availability describes how often a given link of the corresponding links (14) is available in terms of quantum time intervals over a measurement interval; and advertising (106) details of the delay-based availability in the Segment Routing network (10) for use as a delay-based availability metric for use as a traffic engineering (TE) metric.
