Scalable AWG-based Multi-Protocol Optical Switch (MPOS) for Future Optical GRID Networking

This paper presents a novel optical switch, MPOS concept which is capable of handling circuit, burst and packet based traffic and also perform all optical multicasting. This switch design is based upon a wavelength routed switching matrix with the used of SOAs as wavelength converters and also to pe...

Description
Summary:This paper presents a novel optical switch, MPOS concept which is capable of handling circuit, burst and packet based traffic and also perform all optical multicasting. This switch design is based upon a wavelength routed switching matrix with the used of SOAs as wavelength converters and also to perform multicasting. Optical Switches with such capabilities are essential for future Optical Grid Networking. Physical performance of the MPOS at 10 Gbps will be presented in this paper.
