چکیده

Advances in packet-switching technology have enabled the rapid growth of the Internet and will be crucial for its continued expansion in the future. For almost ten years, the Prizma switch architecture has been a main component of IBM network technology, and today it is a cornerstone of the IBM Microelectronics Division’s engagement with leading network product providers. In this paper we review the evolution of the Prizma architecture over the last decade and discuss the PowerPRS range of switch-chip products that are based on the Prizma architecture.

Modeling PRIZMA-Tusing POOSL

Current telecommunication systems should be able to provide services to a wide range of traffic classes. These classes have different characteristics, but should be handled in a uniform fashion, for example by one type of switch. While system complexity increases with time, demands on the time-to-market become more strict. There is no time to investigate all solutions. Therefore, an abstract sy...

Simulation and Design of an Organic Quantum Film Electrooptic Switch

In this paper the simulation and design of a quantum-film electro-optic switch is considered. This photonic device, is made from a new organic dipolar material called MNA or 2-methyl-4 nitroaniline, which possesses a high merit in comparison with it's inorganic counterparts (e.g. LiNbO3, GaAs, InSb, Quartz, etc). Montecarlo method is used to simulate the photon-it-electron interaction in this m...

Design of Arrayed Waveguide Grating based Optical Switch for High Speed Optical Networks

This paper demonstrates the design of an Arrayed Waveguide Gratings (AWG) based optical switch. In the design both physical and network layer analysis is performed. The physical layer power and noise analysis is done to obtain Bit Error Rate (BER). This has been found that at the higher bit rates, BER is not affected with number of buffer modules. Network layer analysis is done to obtain perfor...

Radio Frequency-micro Electromechanical System Switch with High Speed and Low Actuated Voltage

This paper presents a novel RF MEMS (Micro Electromechanical System) fixed-fixed switch for very fast switching. Using the obtained equations, the switching time depends on the stiffness and effective mass of the switch beam so that the switching time will be decreased by higher stiffness (spring constant) and lower effective mass. In new design, the suspension bridge is a three-layer beam so t...

Optimized Digital Optical Switch Using Proton Exchanged Lithium Niobate Waveguides

The main emphasis in developing DOS has been on achieving low crosstalk (CT). CT in the order of -30 dB is acceptable in conventional DOS and below that value is hard to achieve. Relatively low drive voltage (or power requirements) is also necessary to optimized DOS. This paper depicts the design of Y-branched digital optical switches (DOS) with optimized on-chip area coverage, reduced driving ...
