Abstract

This paper outlines the idea of a code routing technique in an optical packet switching network, which aims to combine the advantage of code division multiplexing (CDM) and wavelength multiplexing (WDM). We describe the principle of operation and propose our opinion on the three questions that are mainly considered in the system design. Also, the functional blocks structure is described in greater detail with reference to the hardware implementation.
