The concept of rearrangeably and strictly nonblocking space division networks is extended to the wavelength dimension, resulting in a new family of interconnection network called wavelength-space division switches (WSDS). The complexity and wavelength assignment in these networks are discussed with some examples.

Inspec keywords: switching networks; frequency division multiplexing; optical communication

Other keywords: wavelength-space division switches; wavelength assignment; interconnection network; nonblocking space division networks; WDM; optical networks

Subjects: Optical communication; Communication switching
