The format of the ethernet media access control （MAC） frame is borrowed in defining the physical frame for PFTS and the transmission time for the maximum size of the MAC frame is defined as a physical frame time-slot （PFT）. Consequently, user data can be fed into PFTS and switched in a single layer sub-network in an asynchronous mode.展开更多

文摘A novel technique called physical frame time-slot switching （PFTS） is discussed and its technical and application aspects are analyzed. The format of the ethernet media access control （MAC） frame is borrowed in defining the physical frame for PFTS and the transmission time for the maximum size of the MAC frame is defined as a physical frame time-slot （PFT）. Consequently, user data can be fed into PFTS and switched in a single layer sub-network in an asynchronous mode.
