Abstract

Packet switching is an integral part of Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) switching systems in Broadband ISDN (B-ISDN) and will have a major input on future photonic communications systems. Self-routing packet switches are the basic switching elements in ATM networks. There have been a number of recent demonstrations of self-routing photonic packet switches, for example [1], [2]. A key feature of these switches is that the information content (payload) of a packet can have a data rate which is not limited by electronics [1].
