The authors have developed a multiwavelength Internet protocol (IP) packet sender/receiver to be inserted into a peripheral component interconnect (PCI)-bus slot of a personal computer (PC) or a workstation. When the PCs or workstations with the sender/receiver are connected to an Internet access network configured on a passive optical network (PON) as client terminals, a peer-to-peer connection-oriented communication path can be set up between them. The PCs can afford a real-time interactive communication with quality of service (QoS) fully guaranteed.
Generally pair control architecture is adopted in telecommunication systems to save software processing time to setup both-way paths between a sender and a receiver. We have introduced this into a photonic switch fabric (PSF), which is a key instrument of a developed photonic label switch router (PLSR). The PLSR is to be operated as a photonic router in an optical Internet system to guarantee QoS (quality of service) and the transmission bandwidth by providing end-to-end wavelength LSPs (label switched paths). In contrast to conventional PSFs for both-way communications that do not have the capability to save switching elements and its control circuits, the proposed architecture enables us to save them drastically. General configuration of an N×N PSF is described in addition to the developed 3×3 PSF.

Pair control is generally adopted in telecommunication systems to save software processing time to set up both-way paths between a sender and a receiver. We have introduced new pair control architecture into a Photonic Switch Fabric (PSF) which is a key instrument of a developed Photonic Label Switch Router (PLSR). In our WAPS (Wavelength Assignment Photonic Switching System), the PLSR is to be operated as a photonic router in the optical internet system to guarantee QoS (Quality of Service) and the transmission bandwidth by providing end-to-end wavelength LSPs (Label Switched Paths). In contrast with that conventional pair controlled PSFs do not have capability to save switching elements and its control circuits, the proposed architecture enables to save them drastically.
