  • Abstract
    We demonstrate all-optical packet routing using an out-of-band optical label and wavelength conversion in a cyclic-frequency arrayed-waveguide grating (AWG) based full-mesh network with shared multiple light sources. Gigabit Ethernet packets were successfully routed using our technique.
