Abstract

See full text

A method of adding a new connection (c, d) to a time:space:time switch fabric. The fabric has a set I of k input elements, a set M of m switch elements, and a set O of l output elements. Each input element contributes one input to each switch element, and each output element receives one output from each switch element. A state S.sub.m characterizes the switch elements as a set of ordered pairs (i, j), where (i, j) .epsilon. S.sub.m if and only if the j.sup.th output element is coupled to the i.sup.th input element through one of the switch elements. The range of S.sub.m is the set of outputs of S.sub.m such that if j .epsilon. range(S.sub.m) then (i, j) .epsilon. S.sub.m for some i .epsilon. I. The domain of S.sub.m is the set of inputs of S.sub.m such that if i .epsilon. domain(S.sub.m) then (i, j) .epsilon. S.sub.m for some j .epsilon. O.
