Journal ArticleDOI
Data-centric optical networks and their survivability
Didier Colle,S. De Maesschalck,Chris Develder,P. Van Heuven,Adelbert Groebbens,Jan Cheyns,Ilse Lievens,Mario Pickavet,Paul Lagasse,Piet Demeester +9 more
TL;DR: This paper describes how core networks will evolve to optical transport networks (OTNs), which are optimized for the transport of data traffic, resulting in an IP-directly-over-OTN paradigm.
Journal ArticleDOI
An optical IM/FSK coding technique for the implementation of a label-controlled arrayed waveguide packet router
Kyriakos Vlachos,J. Zhang,Jan Cheyns,Sulur,Nan Chi,E. Van Breusegem,Idelfonso Tafur Monroy,J.G.L. Jennen,P.V. Holm-Nielsen,Christophe Peucheret,Ronan F. O'Dowd,Piet Demeester,A.M.J. Koonen +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new concept of optical packet/burst switching suitable for generalized multiprotocol label switched (GMPLS)-based optical networks is presented, in which a wavelength label as well as an orthogonally modulated label, with respect to the payload modulation format, are used for switching in the node, whereas the orthogonal label defines the label-switched path.
Journal ArticleDOI
Routing in an AWG-based optical packet switch
TL;DR: A possible architecture for such a node, array waveguide gratings and all-optical tuneable wavelength converters is presented and an inherent problem of this switch is its internal blocking.
Journal ArticleDOI
A broad view on overspill routing in optical networks: a real synthesis of packet and circuit switching?
Erik Van Breusegem,Jan Cheyns,Davy De Winter,Didier Colle,Mario Pickavet,Piet Demeester,Joris Moreau +6 more
TL;DR: This paper introduces this Overspill Routing In Optical Networks (ORION), and discusses several aspects of it: the overall architecture and network concept, node design and implementation, and evaluation at network level as well as node level.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clos lives on in optical packet switching
Jan Cheyns,Chris Develder,E. Van Breusegem,Didier Colle,F. De Turck,Paul Lagasse,Mario Pickavet,Piet Demeester +7 more
TL;DR: This work discusses node architectures for optical packet switching and shows how the multistage approach proposed by Clos can be adopted to solve scalability issues and construct switches with large port counts.
