Optical-label based packet routing system with contention resolution in wavelength, time, and space domains

We report optical-label switched optical packet routing with wavelength, time, and space domain contention resolution. Testing of the packet routing system under three contention scenarios demonstrated the successful contention resolution in the three domains and error free performance.
