Digital MEMS for Optical Switching
Over the last few years an amazing amount of interest has emerged for applications of micro electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) in telecommunications. Silicon-based optical MEMS have proven to be the technology of choice for lowcost scalable photonic applications because they allow mass manufacturing of highly accurate miniaturized parts, and use materials with excellent mechanical and electrical...
متن کاملSecond Order Sliding Mode Observer-Based Control for Uncertain Nonlinear MEMS Optical Switch
This paper studies theuncertain nonlinear dynamics of a MEMS optical switch addressing electrical, mechanical and optical subsystems. Recently, MEMS optical switch has had significant merits in reliability, control voltage requirements and power consumption. However, an inherent weakness in designing control for such systems is unavailability of switch position information at all times due to t...
متن کاملDiffraction-Based Optical Switching with MEMS
We are presenting an overview of MEMS-based (Micro-Electro-Mechanical System) optical switch technology starting from the reflective two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) MEMS implementations. To further increase the speed of the MEMS from these devices, the mirror size needs to be reduced. Small mirror size prevents efficient reflection but favors a diffraction-based approach. Two im...
متن کاملSwitch architecture for optical burst switching networks
We present a new switch architecture for optical burst switching networks that utilizes the just-in-time signaling protocol. Signaling is done out of band, with signaling messages undergoing electrooptical (EO) conversion at every hop while data, on the other hand, travels transparently through the configured path. The switch was implemented and deployed in advanced technology demonstration net...
متن کاملOptical Switching: Switch Fabrics, Techniques, and Architectures
The switching speeds of electronics cannot keep up with the transmission capacity offered by optics. All-optical switch fabrics play a central role in the effort to migrate the switching functions to the optical layer. Optical packet switching provides an almost arbitrary fine granularity but faces significant challenges in the processing and buffering of bits at high speeds. Generalized multip...
