Abstract
This paper presents a nonblocking routing algorithm for Benes networks. Such networks are of potential interest in implementing large scale optical cross-connects, but their complex routing algorithm limits their applications. We use a simple approach to determine the routing tags for a conflict free routing. Available methods proposed in the literature use computationally complex solutions to determine the routing tags.We propose a new approach for determining the paths through the network for all the requests coming to the inputs of the switch for unicast routing. Each switching stage has been represented by a set of sub-matrices and hence a conflict free routing is found.The correctness of the generated routing tags have been validated with mathematical method as well as with a simulator that can validate the correctness of the routing tags. This algorithm requires less complex practical implementation than the looping algorithm, making it viable for use in cross connect systems.
