Optical Switching and Wire-Speed Packet Processing in Optical Backbone Networks
Overview In this paper, the wire-speed packet processing issue is analyzed for Optical Packet/Burst Switching (OPS/OBS) switching nodes, and wavelength-routing (WR) switching nodes. Some assumptions are made which allow to obtain simple estimates of these values, which are then compared with the packet processing performance of commercial electronic devices which implement this type of tasks in state-of-the-art high-performance packet switches. Results show that in the OPS/OBS alternatives, wire-speed packet processing cannot be considered a challenge. Furthermore, it is not dependent on the binary rate of packet payload.
