The Optical burst switching (OBS) networks have been attracting much consideration as a promising approach to build the next generation optical Internet. Aggregating the burst in the OBS networks from the high priority traffic will increase the average of the loss of its packets. However, the ratio of the high priority traffic (e.g. real-time traffic) in the burst is a very important factor for reducing the data loss, and ensuring the fairness between network traffic types. This paper introduces a statistical study based on the significant difference between the traffics to find the fairness ratio for the high priority traffic packets against the low priority traffic packets inside the data burst with various network traffic loads. The results show an improvement in the OBS quality of service (QoS) performance and the high priority traffic packets fairness ratio inside the data burst is 50 to 60%, 30 to 40%, and 10 to 20% for high, normal, and low traffic loads, respectively.
