A method for assigning a predetermined wavelength between two different nodes in a wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) ring communication network that has an N number of nodes and at least one pair of optical fibers sequentially connecting the N number of nodes is disclosed. A matrix is formed by an algorithm representing optical-path configuration and wavelength assignment for nodes representing three cases: (1) when the number of nodes is an even number; (2) when the number of nodes is increased; and (3) for recovery from network-cut failures.

Disclosed is an IP-based broadcast service system capable of reducing the channel zapping or changing time and the waste of bandwidths during frequent channel changes such as channel surfing. A broadcast server for providing broadcast services generates both high-quality broadcast data and low-quality broadcast data of each TV channel. The broadcast server provides the low-quality broadcast data during a simple channel surfing. When a viewer selects a channel to view, the broadcast server then provides the high-quality broadcast data of the selected channel.
