Abstract
A method for enhancing transmission efficiency of burst data by estimating a void between burst data and filling the void with new burst data in an optical burst switching (OBS) network. To this end, a node in the OBS network receives burst data (BD) aggregated from data packets, and a burst control packet (BCP) that is received prior to the BD by an offset time. The BCP contains information relating to the offset time and the BD. To predict the void between the BDs, a void filling time is defined within the offset time using the BCP. The present invention provides the method for determining whether to fill the void and filling the void by directly monitoring the BD over a preset time.
