An analytical approach based on a reduced Markov chain (RMC) model of an optical packet switch with partially shared output buffer has been presented and a combined scheme for the contention resolution in optical packet switches has been proposed. The proposed scheme takes the advantage of output buffering, shared buffering and wavelength conversion to enhance the switch performance. The performance evaluation of the switch architecture based on RMC modelling has been validated through extensive simulation. Moreover, for a self-similar input traffic, the switch performance has been shown to achieve further improvement if a traffic shaping mechanism is incorporated at the input end of the switch architecture.
