Abstract

Optical switches (OS) are widely used for switching optical signals in optical networks. Parameters and technical characteristics of OS include its capacity, number of inputs and outputs, speed of transition from one state to another, optical losses during signal transmission in the channel (value of attenuation coefficient in “on” state) and switching obstacles or switch off (in “off” state) the value of the extinction coefficient) and so on. The article proposes a new design of a new generation 3D switch based on a comparative analysis with other optical switches to create a high-speed and efficient optical transition in optical networks. The working principle of the proposed 3D switch is explained and a new structural block diagram is developed. The efficiency probability of the elements ensuring the stable operation of the proposed optical switch was calculated, calculations were performed in the MATLAB environment, and graphs of the probability of unrejected operation of the device were constructed.
