Abstract:This paper proposes a high‐speed ATM switch architecture for handling cell rates of several Gb/s in a broadband communication switching system or cross‐connect system. The proposed switch architecture, named the high‐speed‐retry banyan switch, employs a bufferless banyan network between input and output buffers; a cell is repeatedly transmitted from an input buffer until it can be successfully transmitted to the desired output buffer. A simple cell‐retransmission algorithm, is employed as is a ring‐arbitration… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
