Switch architecture for optical burst switching networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a new switch architecture for optical burst switching networks that utilizes the just-in-time signaling protocol. Signaling is done out of band, with signaling messages undergoing electrooptical (EO) conversion at every hop while data, on the other hand, travels transparently through the configured path. The switch was implemented and deployed in advanced technology demonstration network (ATDNet); it is capable of processing 2.88 Gbps of signaling messages traffic on an Altera FPGA.

WDM Burst Switching for Petabit Capacity Routers
WDM burst switching is an approach to building very high capacity routing switches based on optical data paths and electronic control. Burst switches assign user data bursts to channels in WDM links on-the-fly in order to provide efficient statistical multiplexing of high rate data channels. The overall system architecture is designed to facilitate the introduction of optical switching componen...

متن کاملA non-competing hybrid optical burst switch architecture for QoS differentiation
In this paper, we present a new hybrid optical burst switch architecture (HOBS) that takes advantage of the pre-transmission idle time during lightpath establishment. In dynamic circuit switching (wavelength routing) networks, capacity is immediately hardreserved upon the arrival of a setup message at a node, but it is used at least a round-trip time delay later. This waste of resources is sign...
