In this paper, we present the cross-talk modeling of the switching matrix based on XPM in SOA for optical packet-switched networks. Cross-talk-induced bit error rate (BER) and switch cascaded capability under unbalanced traffic are examined, which proves to be relevant to the SOA parameters, the traffic model unbalanced degree, the control pulse energy and so on. Several rules are drawn to facilitate the design of SOA-based switching matrix under unbalanced traffic.

“…Cross connects using SOA's have been implemented up to 8 8 size [4], [5]. The use of SOA gate arrays can allow a reduction of the space-switch package size and gate arrays have been designed using SOA's and GC-SOA's [6]. It is necessary anyway to propose methods which can further reduce the number of gating elements in the space switch.…”
