A Study on the Two-Stage ATM Switch and Its Traffic Characteristics

대용량 2단 ATM 스위치와 그 특성에 관한 연구

In this paper, a new large scale ATM switch architecture for Broadband ISDN is presented and its performance is analyzed mathematically. The proposed two-stage ATM switch consists of a sorting network and several unit switches. The proposed switch is self-routing and nonlocking. Its maximum through put is 100% without speed up which other output buffered switch needs. The hardware complexity mainly depends on that of a sorting network, but sorting network is easy to be implemented to VLSI because of its regularity in the structure.
