摘要
An intelligent optical burst switching module for use in an optical switching network includes an optical receiver array, optical transmitter array, a core switch unit and a control unit. The core switch unit routes optical control and data signals received via a plurality of optical input lines to the optical receiver array and a plurality of output lines, respectively. The optical output lines provide propagation paths for a plurality of TDM channels. The optical receiver array converts the optical control signal to an electrical signal. The control unit processes the converted control signal and, responsive thereto, causes the core switch unit to route at least a portion of the data signal to one of the TDM channels. The control unit also causes the optical transmitter to generate a new optical control signal and cause the switch unit to route the new control signal to another of the TDM channels.
