Architecture and Performance Evaluation of a Novel Optical Packet Switch with Input Concentrators

In this paper, we propose a novel optical packet switch (OPS) architecture with input concentrators, which employ multi-input single-output optical buffers to aggregate all the incoming traffic into a small size switching fabric. Accordingly, the physical size, the number of the needed wavelength co...
