Abstract

Abstract Recently, in the present day’s data center systems an explosive growth has been observed in data traffic, which restricts the speed of exiting data communication network. To solve such problem, fiber optical-based optical communication system is preferred choice. In this paper, an arrayed waveguide grating (AWG)-based optical packet switch is presented in which priority among packets is implemented effectively. This switch is a recirculating loop buffer-based switch in which a hybrid buffering (optical + electrical) technique is used for storing packets into the buffer. The power budget analysis of switch is presented in various conditions, when packet passes through the optical or electronic buffers. Comparison of optical and electronic buffering is done in terms of power required for the correct operation of the switch. In this paper, a comparison is performed between our proposed switch with recently published switch designs. The result presented in this paper clearly reveals that the performance of our proposed switch is far better than other previously published switch architecture. The major beauty of our proposed switch is that in this design priority among packets implemented effectively.
