Abstract
Channel transmission error arguments show how the size of an all-optical multihop network employing deflection routing is limited for a given optical bit rate. These limits are quantified for nonregenerative all-optical mesh networks such as Manhattan Street network and ShuffleNet employing solitons. It is found that the node-to-node fibre span cannot exceed a few kilometres for network sizes up to 400 nodes when the optical bit rate is as high as 100 Gbit/s if the packet error rate is to be bounded below 10-6
