Problems solved by technology

[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology that cannot improve the congestion at the edge node when the network data transmission is bursty, the present invention provides a network that can connect Ethernet and optical burst switching network, and realize the burstiness between Ethernet frame and OBS. Full-duplex conversion between sending packets, in the case of bursty network data transmission, early detection of congestion can be performed, which can improve the congestion at the edge node and is used to connect the edge of Ethernet and optical burst switching network Nodes and Implementation Methods

Abstract

The invention relates to an edge node for connecting an Ethernet and an optical burst switching network, which comprises physical layer equipment, a first switching module and a second switching module, wherein the first switching module comprises an Ethernet frame analyzing and burst packet grouping unit, a queue managing unit and a scheduling unit; the second switching module comprises a burst packet analyzing and Ethernet grouping unit, a category temporary-storing unit and an inquiry unit. The realizing method for the edge node comprises the following steps of: judging the flowing direction of data; if the data is sent to the burst packet switching network from the Ethernet, analyzing the Ethernet frame, and grouping the burst packets; storing each burst packet according to the destination addresses; finding an idle channel to send the burst packets; if the data is sent to the Ethernet from the burst switching network, analyzing the burst packets and extracting the Ethernet frame; respectively storing the Ethernet frames according to the destination addresses; finding an idle physical interface to send the Ethernet frame, waiting for the next data, and repeating the steps. The invention has the advantages of full duplex switching and blockage improvement.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an edge node structure in an optical burst switching (OBS) network, and mainly relates to an edge node between an optical burst switching network and an Ethernet (Ethernet). technical background [0002] In the communication network, except for the user line, the traditional cables have been replaced by optical fibers. Optical fiber has the characteristics of low transmission loss and high transmission bandwidth, and the application of wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology in the transmission network makes the transmission bandwidth of the network backbone up to several Tbits per second. However, the switching capability of the current network nodes is insufficient, which has become a bottleneck restricting the development of the current network. In order to increase the switching capacity and reduce the switching cost, it is imperative to improve the traditional optical switching technology. Optical Burst Switchi...
