Abstract :
This paper describes a WDM packet routing prototype incorporating a dynamic bandwidth allocation function for the physical layer. The total bandwidth for 2.5-Gbit/s optical packets was divided into 16 WDM channels with the granularity of 78 Mbit/s and bandwidth allocation was controlled from an operation system.
