Abstract :
We design a lot of spatial switching networks based on integrating 2×2 LiNbO3 electro-optical switches. In this paper, we consider various spatial switching networks such as general MDB (GMDB), modified double crossbar (MDX), dilate Benes, etc. Finally, we compare the various performance such as the signal to noise ratio (SNR) and insertion loss, for providing the adaptive performance of a universal switching networks.
