Optical burst switching (OBS) is a new switching concept, based on ideas developed for electronic burst switching almost two decades ago.

description There have been rapid changes in the networking field in the past decade or so, mainly due to an exponential growth in the number of users and traffic volumes, and emergence of new applications. This has caused a higher demand for bandwidth, with better quality of service and reduced blocking probability. Meeting this demand efficiently would be possible in high-speed optical networks with a proper switching paradigm employing dynamic reservation schemes. Optical burst switching (OBS) is a new switching concept, based on ideas developed for electronic burst switching almost two decades ago. Now the idea has evolved to become a paradigm, which combines the best of both switching techniques i.e. circuit switching and packet switching, thus overcoming the inherent setbacks in the respective switching techniques.
