  • Abstract
    A switching architecture, synchronous fast packet switching (SFPS), is proposed whereby an optical space switch provides a circuit-switching type of transmission to applications with rigid delay requirement and continuous traffic pattern (e.g., video). A fast packet switch fabric is connected to the space switch to handle packets of more conventional applications. The transmission scheme and the switch design are described
