APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING SIGNAL TRANSMITION AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME

摘要

PURPOSE: An apparatus for controlling signal transmission and a method for controlling the same are provided to secure a process rate of a multicast traffic when unicast traffic and multicast traffic exist at the same time. CONSTITUTION: M input ports(510) receives unicast data packet(542) and multicast data packet. N output ports(520) outputs unicast the data packet and the multicast data packet. Buffers are located at the NxM intersections of M input lines and N output lines. A switching fabric offers connection route between M input ports and N output ports.
