All-Optical Packet Switching and Label Rewriting for Data Packets Beyond 160 Gb/s

In this paper, two different paradigms to realize a scalable all-optical packet switch with label swapping will be reviewed. The two paradigms are based on wavelength routing switch and space routing switch. All the functions required for switching the packets, namely, the label processor, the label...
