Switching system architecture for optical-circuit-packet converged transport network

This paper presents the optical-circuit-packet integrated switching system. It enables to unify the optical transport network layer, circuit network layer and packet transport network layer into single platform. It uses an optical-circuit-packet converged switching technology, a unified control and management technology. It will solve the problem such as explosion of traffic, the lack of transmission capacity. As a result, it will save the cost to build the converged network.
