Two Novel Structures of Optical Packet Switching Nodes

摘要

All-optical packet switching networkis currently one of the research hotspots of all-opticalcommunication networks and optical packet switchingnodes are the key technique of optical packet switch-ing network. In this paper, two novel structures ofoptical packet switching nodes are put forward, and the switching capacity of the node and the packet con-tention resolution are analyzed. These two switchingarchitectures can realize wavelength routing switchingfunction and broadcast-and-select switching functionrespectively. They are simple but efficient for realizingoptical packet switching network.
