Abstract :
This article describes the simulation and analysis of a collisionless optical interconnection network with single protocol control. The optical fibre coupler has one shared control channel and N communication channels. Each network node has two communication modules, one for packet transmission/reception and the other for control channel access. We show by simulation that the system achieves a high performance and ensures high scalability
