Abstract

An analytical model for the performance analysis of a novel input access scheme for an ATM switch is developed and presented in this paper. The interconnection network of the ATM switch is internally nonblocking and is provided with N input queues per each input port for a switch of size N × N. That is, each input port maintains a separate queue for each output port so as to reduce the head-of-line (HOL) blocking of conventional input queuing switches. Each input is allowed to send just one cell per slot time, and each output port is allowed to accept just one cell per slot time. Under saturated conditions the switch was analyzed and a closed-form solution for the maximum throughput is derived. Using a tagged input queue approach, an analytical model for evaluating the switch performance under an i.i.d. Bernoulli traffic for different offered traffic loads is developed. The switch throughput, mean cell delay, and cell loss probability are computed from the analytical model. The accuracy of the analytical model is verified using simulation.
