Abstract

Abstract: With the rapid development of Internet technology, the capacity of communication system is increasing rapidly and traditional switching technology based on optical-electrical-optical (O/E/O) conversion cannot satisfy requirements for information exchange. Construction of a high-speed, large-capacity, high-bandwidth all-optical switching network will be the future direction of communication systems. In this paper, the key technologies in all-optical label switching networks are investigated. First, five kinds of optical label technologies are studied. The principles and implementation methods of them are analyzed and compared. Then, optical switching fabrics based on different kinds of optical switches are discussed. Next, a 160Gb/s Optical Time Division Multiplexing (OTDM) signal 1 × 8 packet switching experiment is introduced. Finally, the research work is summarized, and the design of core nodes in optical packet switching network is prospected.
