Abstract

This paper proposes a novel bufferless switch architecture based on optical codes, suitable as core node in OBS (optical burst switched) networks. Optical codes are used for coding incoming bursts in order to perform the switching function. To this end the proposed switch architecture employs encoders and decoders and possible output contentions are solved in the wavelength domain by means of variable-input fixed-output wavelength converters.

Keywords: Optical Burst Switching Optical Codes wavelength conversion
