چکیده
The use of optical buffer memories in packet switched networks is unavoidable to resolve contention problems. The fiber loop buffer memory of one slot delay is used in number of all optical switch architectures. In this paper, the behavior of such a loop memory is simulated and results are presented.

This paper demonstrates the design of an Arrayed Waveguide Gratings (AWG) based optical switch. In the design both physical and network layer analysis is performed. The physical layer power and noise analysis is done to obtain Bit Error Rate (BER). This has been found that at the higher bit rates, BER is not affected with number of buffer modules. Network layer analysis is done to obtain perfor...
