<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for transmitting a burst, in which performance of an optical burst switching system is maximized by transmitting a data burst for which a next node is a destination, originating from the current node, while inserting it into an empty void between data bursts surviving competition to occupy an output channel among data bursts transmitted to the next node by way of the current nod. <P>SOLUTION: The method includes the steps of: obtaining an arrival time of data bursts that survive competition to occupy an output channel among data bursts transmitted to the next node by way of the current node using offset time information in burst control packets for the survived data packets; checking whether an empty void is present between the survived data bursts; and generating a new data burst originating from the current node, inserting the newly generated data burst into the checked empty void, and transmitting it to the next node. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT</p> |
