波长转换器和光纤延迟线在WDM光分组交换中的结构设计和性能研究

介绍了两种新颖的光分组交换结构——MOD1和MOD2,用于解决分组冲突问题.其特点在于,MOD1共享了一组非简并的延迟线,而MOD2则是共享了一组简并的延迟线和波长转换器.研究表明,对于非突发业务,两种结构都只需要少量的延迟线即可获得理想的性能.此时,MOD1比MOD2更加能降低系统体积和成本.而对于突发业务,如果MOD1所共享的延迟线数量和MOD2所共享的延迟线和转换器的总数量相等,MOD2的分组丢弃率要远远低于MOD1.随着业务突发程度的增加,MOD2中的转换器数量也需要增加才能维持给定的分组丢弃率,但即使业务突发程度很高,MOD2在体积、成本和性能等三方面均可取得较理想的折衷.     

一种反馈FDL结构竞争解决丢包率的研究

对反馈FDL结构的光分组交换竞争解决方案建立了数学模型并进行了理论分析，推导出了在反馈FDL输入分组比输入光纤输入分组具有更高输出优先级时的系统丢包率公式，对系统丢包率与负载、输入光纤端口数和FDL数目的关系进行了数值计算和讨论.结果表明：由于FDL缓存分组的概率与输入分组负载的非线性关系导致了反馈FDL结构在低负载时对丢包率的改善非常明显，对高负载的改善却十分有限.随着FDL数目的增加，对系统丢包率的改善不会趋于一个极限值，这是与使用波长转换器进行竞争解决的不同之处，因此使用反馈FDL结构可以降低波长转换器的丢包率极限.

Modeling and design of WDM optical buffers in asynchronous and variable-length optical packet switches

This paper aims to analyze the influence of wavelength conversion on the design of optical fiber delay line (FDL) buffers in a wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) packet switch. We focus on the network scenario that variable-length packets arrive at the optical switch asynchronously. Through a detailed analysis of the behaviors of packets in the WDM FDL buffer, an approximate analytical traffic model is established. And the theoretical model is proved to be reasonable by simulations. Based on the model, it is clear that, under the same traffic load per wavelength channel, the utilization of tunable wavelength converters (TWCs) to resolve the output contention significantly reduces the number of fiber delay lines (FDLs) in optical buffers, and to achieve a given packet loss probability under a certain number of FDLs, the required number of tunable wavelengths can be predicted. The model can also estimate the optimal value of the basic time unit of the FDLs, and examine the influence of WDM on the optimal value. Finally, the impact of wavelength conversion on the optical switch size is analyzed. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first time that modeling on this problem is presented.     

Hybrid buffering architecture for packet contention resolution of an optical packet switch

Packet contention is a major issue in optical packet switching network and it is not a trivial task to resolve due to lack of optical RAM technology. In order to resolve contention optical buffering approach is used using fiber delay lines (FDLs). Yet there is a heavy packet loss rate due to unavailability of output port and free FDLs. This paper proposes a hybrid buffering architecture using feed-forward and feedback shared FLDs to resolve packet contention resolution of an optical packet switch. Feed-forward FDLs are used as primary buffer and feedback FDLs are implemented as supplementary buffer. Simulation result shows that proposed hybrid buffering switch achieves packet loss rate between 10⁻¹ and 10⁻² at heavy traffic load (ρ = 0.9) for a 32 × 32 switch using different FDL length.     

Performance analysis of a novel architecture for contention resolution of OPS

Optical packet switching (OPS) technology can rapidly deliver the enormous network bandwidth and offer high-speed data rate and format transparency. In this paper we propose a novel architecture using all-optical tunable wavelength converters (TWCs) and fiber delay-lines (FDLs) to address the contention problem for OPS in wavelength and time domains. This architecture improves packet switching speed but significantly decreases the number of optical switches comparing with existing architectures. A simulation is also conducted to evaluate the performance of the architecture. The simulation results show that the packet loss probability of this architecture is lower than general architectures.

有优先权的光突发交换中光缓存的性能分析

分析了配置有限数量光纤时延线(FDLs)和优先权机制的光突发交换(pOBS)网络性能,建立了pOBS的网络模型和排队模型;并以模型为基础,比较了各级别数据包的排队等延时与FDLs单位、负荷强度比例的关系;比较了有和无FDLs时,包丢失率与FDLs单位、FDLs深度、系统负荷强度以及波长数的关系.研究发现;高优先级数据包的平均延时远小于其它数据包,负荷强度越大平均延时也越大,高优先级数据包的比例越大则低优先级数据包的延时越大且丢失率越高,加入有限数量和适当深度的FDLs、减小FDLs最小单位、增加波长数都能减小数据包的平均排队延时和丢失率.     

基于延迟抢占的突发竞争解决策略

在光突发交换网络中, 将竞争突发送入光纤延迟线(FDLs)缓存以避免丢弃被认为是一种便捷、有效的竞争解决方案。基于“提前预留”模型, 提出采用延迟抢占(DP)的方式来实现突发的竞争解决, 比较了全延迟抢占与部分延迟抢占机制的阻塞性能。为支持区分服务, 开展了两优先级系统中延迟抢占机制的研究, 建立了适用于两优先级系统的阻塞分析模型, 并对不同配比条件下延迟抢占机制的阻塞及延迟性能进行了仿真分析。仿真结果表明, 延迟抢占机制有效地保证了高优先级突发的低阻塞要求, 与低优先级突发相比, 其突发阻塞率要低约2个数量级。此外, 由于FDL的长度固定, 数据突发的时延要求也得到了有效保障, 流量载荷ρ=1.0时, 高优先级突发的平均延迟仅为10 μs。     

Improved optical packet switching structure with recirculation buffer and feedback tunable wavelength converter

The performance of an optical switching network is mainly determined by its core node structure. An improved optical packet switching （OPS） node structure based on recirculation optical fiber delay line （FDL） and feedback tunable wavelength converter （TWC）, and a specific scheduling algorithm for the node structure are presented. This switching structure supports both point-to-point and point-to-multi- points broadcasting transmission with superior capacity expansion performance. Its superiority in packet loss probability is proved by simulation.     

Level and age effects in infant frequency discrimination

Frequency difference limens (FDLs) were estimated for 3-, 6-, and 12-month-old infants and for adults using pure tones at 500, 1000, and 4000 Hz. Each listener provided an FDL at 40 dB and at a higher (80 dB, in most cases) sensation level (SL). An observer-based behavioral testing technique was used. The FDLs of 3-month-olds were worse than those of adults at all three frequencies, and increased with increasing frequency. The FDLs of 6- and 12-month-olds were worse than those of adults at 500 and 1000 Hz, but not at 4000 Hz. Decreasing the SL led to an increase in the FDL of about the same magnitude at all ages, and the same age differences were found at both SLs. Thus infant-adult differences in FDL are not a simple consequence of differences in absolute sensitivity. Infant FDLs at one SL were also found to be significantly correlated with the FDL at the other SL. The FDLs at one age were, in general, predictive of the FDL at a later age in a longitudinal sample of infants. Models that might account for these age-related differences are discussed.
