Design and Implementation of a Multi-Terabit Optical Burst/Packet Router prototype
Introduction Future routers for IP core networks will soon cross the Terabit capacity barrier, requiring vendors to investigate new architectures and technologies. In this paper, we report implementation of a rack-mounted prototype, assembled as a proofof-concept for a scalable multi-Terabit IP optical router (TIPOR). The design is based on the new technique of burst switching coupled to an opt...
متن کاملIntroduction and Analysis of a Novel Quasi - Series Resonant DC Link
Soft Switcing techniques have recently been applied in the design of dc-ac converters, in order to achive better performance, higher efficiency, and power density. One of the soft switching techniques uesd in inverters is resonant dc links. These topologies have some disadvantages such as irregular current peaks, large voltage peaks, uncotrollble pulse width, etc. Another soft switching method ...
متن کاملMulti-terabit hybrid photonic switching and routing
Constructing multi-Terabit switches and routers entirely out of electronic cross-bars require multiple racks of switches and huge number of interconnects. The cost and power consumption of such a system is very high and has a limited scalability. The all-optical switching has the problem of buffering and processing and the construction of multi-terabit switches and routers based on all-optical ...
