    CHAPTER 7 NO. 1 CROSSBAR AND CROSSBAR TANDEM SYSTEMS 7.1 NO. 1 CROSSBAR SYSTEM A. GENERAL The No. 1 Crossbar System was developed in the mid-1930's to overcome some of the disadvantages of the Panel System. For instance, No. 1 Crossbar offered better transmission characteristics by using precious metal contacts in talking path connections; gave one appearance to each s_ubscriber line on the frames for both originating and terminating traffic; and PBX hunting lines could be added without number changes. No. 1 Crossbar also made possible shorter call completing times and required less system maintenance. Since it was expected that this system would be used largely in panel areas, revertive pulsinfi was employed for both incoming and outgoing traff~c. The o. 1 Crossbar System is also a common control system; its originating and terminating equipment each has its own senders which function with the markers to complete subscribers • connections.

    THE PICTURE OF THE FUTURE The Bell System is about to add PICTURE- PHONE® service to the many services it now of- fers customers. A major trial of a Picturephone system is presently under way, and commercial service is scheduled for mid 1970. Because Pic- turephone service is a large undertaking that will have a profound effect on communications, the RECORD is pleased to be able to present this special issue describing the new system for our readers. Special issues have become an important part of the RECORD's continuing story of science and technology at Bell Labs. The first one, in June 1958, dealt with the transistor and marked the tenth anniversary of its invention at Bell Labs. Since then there have been special issues on the TELSTAR® project, No. 1 Ess, and integrated elec- tronics. In addition, there have been single-topic issues devoted to the N-3 and L-4 carrier trans- mission systems. We hope to continue to present such special issues from time to time as a way of highlighting subjects of special importance.

  • Power and Area Efficient Design of Reconfigurable Crossbar Switch for Binoc Router Mr
    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research, Volume 4, Issue 6, June-2013 1700 ISSN 2229-5518 Power and Area Efficient Design of Reconfigurable Crossbar Switch for BiNoC Router Mr. Ashish Khodwe, Mrs. V. K. Rajput, Prof.C.N.Bhoyar, Prof. Priya M. Nerkar Abstract—Network-on-Chip (NOC) has been proposed as an attractive alternative to traditional dedicated wire to achieve high performance and modularity. Power and Area efficiency is the most important concern in NOC design. Small optimizations in NoC router architecture can show a significant improvement in the overall performance of NoC based systems. Power consumption, area overhead and the entire NoC performance is influenced by the router crossbar switch. This paper presents implementation of 10x10 reconfigurable crossbar switch (RCS) architecture for Dynamic Self-Reconfigurable BiNoC Architecture for Network On Chip. Its main purpose is to increase the performance, flexibility. We implemented a parameterized register transfer level design of reconfigurable crossbar switch (RCS) architecture. The design is parameterized on (i) size of packets, (ii) length and width of physical links, (iii) number, and depth of arbiters, and (iv) switching technique. The paper discusses in detail the architecture and characterization of the various reconfigurable crossbar switch (RCS) architecture components. The characterized values were integrated into the VHDL based RTL design to build the cycle accurate performance model. In this paper we show the result of simple 4 x4 as well as 10x10 crossbar switch .The results include VHDL simulation of RCS on ModelSim tool for 4 x4 crossbar switch and Xilinx ISE 13.1 software tool for 10x10 crossbar switch.

  • Digital Switching Digital Switching
    Digital Switching EE4367 Telecom. Switching & Transmission Prof. Murat Torlak Switching A switch transfers signals from one input port to an appropriate output. A basic problem is then how to transfer traffic to the correct output port. In the early telephone network, operators closed circuits manually. In modern circuit switches this is done electronically in digital switches. If no circuit is available when a call is made, it will be blocked (rejected). When a call is finished a connection teardown is required to make the circuit available for another user. EE4367 Telecom.
