Optical Burst Switching Network Testbed

In this paper, several key technologies of optical burst switching (OBS) network are implemented and experimentally verified. The TCP performance over OBS is experimentally investigated on this testbed and multi-QoS traffic transmission on the testbed are demonstrated as well. Currently, an interconnection experiment between OBS and GMPLS network are also reported.
