Abstract

ATM is the switching and multiplexing technology chosen to be used in the implementation of B-ISDN, because of its superiority in fast packet switching. However, the use of ATM switches with large number of input and output ports have been proven to be a bottleneck in wide area ATM networks. In this paper, we propose a new space-division grid-based ATM architecture with fault tolerant characteristics and minimal number of switching elements (SE's).
