Title：Ultra High Speed Wavelength Selective Switching Technique for Optical Aggregation Network

Abstract：The Internet is composed by many routers. On the other hand, energy consumption of all routers in the Internet is an important problem. Because of increasing the transmitting speed, it reached 7.3TW/h in 2008, and now, it reaches 13TW/h in 2010. Thus, we have proposed the Optical Aggregation Network which aggregates many routers into one cloud router and creates a simple tree-based network for reducing the energy consumption of all routers intensively for saving earth.
In this presentation, we propose ecological scalable WDM Network by using PLZT optical WSS (Wavelength Selective Switch) for implementing the Optical Aggregation Network. This PLZT WSS has slot switching function. Therefore, it could extend the distance of network and could add more subscribers to implement ecological scalable network.
