Photonic IP routing using optical codes: 10 Gbit/s optical packet transfer experiment

摘要

Packets consisting of 8-chip-long header and 64bit-long burst payload data at 10Gbit/s have been generated and routed optical domain, based upon photonic processings of the optically coded address. All-optical packet address inspection and 10Gbit/s burst payload data transportation have been demonstrated experimentally for the first time. All-optical control scheme for optical gate switch would be one of the subject to be studied.
