Abstract

A kind of novel architecture of unslotted photonic packet switching wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) ring network with tunable transmitters and fixed receivers was proposed. In the network the wavelength was used as optical packet label and node media access controller (MAC) address. Optical packets transmitter was made up of tunable laser that was modulated at 10, 40 Gb/s or higher. Optical packet receiver was made up of Bragg grating, circulator, and fixed receiver. Used as metropolitan access network, it is shown through simulation how a multi-token MAC protocol can be implemented to avoid packet collision and achieve efficient bandwidth utilization. Packet delay, throughput, and packet dropping probability results are presented under uniform and none uniform Possion traffic.
