Time-Space Label Switching Protocol (TSL-SP)—A New Paradigm of Network Resource Assignment

In this paper we propose a new protocol called time-space label switching protocol (TSL-SP) in optical burst switching (OBS), and define the terms time-space label (TSL) and time-space routing (TSR). An important concept of response time is introduced in the time label mechanism. The TSL-SP is a new technology that can quickly and efficiently forward data with a label on the optical networks. A two-dimension label switched path (TD-LSP) can be set up, that is maintained and deleted by the TSL-SP. For clearly illuminating the operation principles of the TSL-SP, we propose a new approach of orthogonal time-space coordinates in which the vertical coordinate is the space label and the horizontal coordinate is the time label. The proposed TD-LSP can dramatically reduce the routing failure probability and greatly improve the link network efficiency compared with other signaling protocols. Moreover, we define the time-space label control plane that can achieve the higher efficiency. When the TSL-SP is applied to networks, switching performance can be improved by two orders compared to the switching performance with the conventional OBS signaling protocols. The fundamental goal of TSL-SP is to band the signaling and routing functions together closely. Also, the TSL-SP can reduce the complexity of the network, support automatic service offering, and provide traffic engineering.

A Novel Segmentation and Feedback Model for Resolving Contention in Optical Burst Switching

A novel segmentation and feedback model (SFM) applied to resolve contention is proposed. Simulation and performance analyses show that the SFM effectively avoids contentions in optical burst switching (OBS). The long delay time of deflection routing and the immature technology of wavelength converters and optical buffers are not deployed in the SFM. The SFM does not only realize fast switching but also allows preemption by higher priority bursts.A novel segmentation and feedback model (SFM) applied to resolve contention is proposed.

Gealas laser diode pumped cesium beam frequency standard

A laser diode pumped cesium beam frequency standard had been built. The laser diode used for both optical pumping and detection is frequency-locked at the 4-4 transition of Cs D2 line. The voltage controlled crystal oscillator (VCCO) frequency is locked to the center of the Ramsey pattern of the microwave clock transition after frequency multiplying and synthesizing. The preliminary measurement of the frequency stabilities shows that the results are in agreement with the theory, and better results could be achieved by further improving the frequency stability of the laser diode.

Lasing wavelength shift of a GaAlAs laser diode by extremely weak feedback

The lasing wavelength shift and mode jumping of a GaAlAs laser diode have been observed by a optical feedback as low as -61dB or even lower (-66dB). The lasing frequency shift and mode jumping occur periodically when the phase of the reflected light changes 22(. This effect already applied into adjusting the diode lasing frequency to the definite line of the atom by simply putting a mirror away from the facet of the diode at a sizable distance nevertheless this atom resonance line is located at the lasing mode hopping region in the case of diode free running.
