Abstract :
We have proposed and described an all-optical circuit for the control of traffic congestion in a system with self-routing cells/packets. The operation of the circuit was successfully demonstrated by an experiment. We are sure that this scheme provides a useful step towards the realization of an all-optical ultra-fast transmission system.
