Abstract

This paper presents a new architecture for self-routing photonic switching with self-synchronization and optical processing. Two wavelengths are used to carry the clock-data and address signals, respectively. This in turn allows to independently process both signals at each switching node. Thus, the complexity of optical routing controllers is reduced while the reliability of address decoding is significantly improved
