Optical Burst Switching Seminar Report

Description

INTRODUCTION

With recent advances in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology, the amount of raw bandwidth available in fiber links has increased by many orders of magnitude. Meanwhile, the rapid growth of Internet traffic requires high transmission rates beyond a conventional electronic router’s capability. Harnessing the huge bandwidth in optical fiber cost-effectively is essential for the development of the next generation optical Internet.
