Abstract
The design of optical packet switches is an important problem as they are integral parts of optical networks and high-speed data centers. Various types of optical switches under different contention resolution techniques like deflection with no buffer, with input buffer, shared and output buffer, and negative acknowledgment are presented. In this paper, a shared buffering scheme that uses hybrid buffers that use optical and electronic buffers for congestion control of the packets, as well as to minimize the re-transmission of the blocked packets, an input buffering scheme is considered. A Monte Carlo simulation is performed to evaluate the packet loss performance of electronic and optical buffers. It has been found that packet loss as well as the number of re-transmitted packets is reduced on inclusion of an input buffer.
