Bidirectional Multiwavelength Ring Networks: Performance Analysis and Experimental Studies
نویسندگان
چکیده
High-capacity multiwavelength ring networks with bidirectional WDM add/drop multiplexer (WADM) is analyzed and demonstrated. All channels can be added/ dropped independently in each direction. The capacity of a bidirectional ring is found to be approximately twice that of an unidirectional ring. An eight-wavelength WADM is demonstrated for a data rate of 10 Gb/s per channel, providing an overall capacity of 80 Gb/s.

The Red Rover Algorithm for Deadlock-Free Routing on Bidirectional Rings
An algorithm for deadlock-free routing in bidirectional ring structures in multicomputer networks is presented. This algorithm provides greater throughput and lower message latencies than those of previously presented ring routing algorithms. Insight into these results is given by a message traÆc analysis, and increased performance for wormhole-routed networks is quanti ed through simulation ex...
متن کاملA comparative study of bidirectional ring and crossbar interconnection networks
For distributed shared memory multiprocessors, the choice and the design of interconnection networks have a significant impact on their performance. Bidirectional ring networks are considered to be physically fast due to their simple structure, but topologically slow since their communication latency grows at O(N). In this paper, we will present a quantitative measure to the question of how phy...
متن کاملHigh - Speed 2 2 Switch for Multiwavelength Silicon - Photonic Networks – On - Chip
We report the fabrication and experimental verification of a multiwavelength high-speed 2 2 silicon photonic switch for ultrahigh-bandwidth message routing in optical on-chip networks. The structure employs only two microring resonators in order to implement the bar and cross states of the switch. These states are toggled using an optical pump at 1.5m wavelengths inplane with the waveguide devi...
متن کاملBidirectional Ring: An Alternative to the Hierarchy of Unidirectional Rings
A hierarchy of unidirectional rings has been used successfully in distributed shared-memory multiprocessors. The xed cluster size of the hierarchy prevents full exploitation of communication locality. The bidirectional ring is presented as an alternative to the hierarchy. Its relative performance is evaluated for a variety of memory access patterns and network sizes. It gives superior performan...
