摘要

Benes网络能够实现高交换基数下较低的构建成本和理论高吞吐量，但现有Benes网络对应的路由求解算法不保证网络内部开关单元失效时的可重排无阻塞特性。提出一种非平衡Benes网络，其在特定条件下拥有和Benes网络相同的可重排无阻塞特性。提出一种由Benes网络裁剪获得非平衡Benes网络的方法，可以此法屏蔽Benes网络中发生故障的开关单元，实现网络的容错交换。当用于处理开关阵列生产良率问题时，该方案可重排无阻塞交换规模比传统容错方案平均提升56.05%，最高提升93.75%；当用于处理开关阵列的高可靠容错交换时，在容许最多3个开关单元出现故障前提下，比传统容错方案交换规模提升12.5%至21.9%。提出针对非平衡Benes网络的快速路由求解算法，并使用FPGA验证，验证结果表明，该求解算法不会成为交换系统的性能瓶颈。基于裁剪法，研究同样实现了Benes网络的可控局部重构，使其支持像Crossbar网络那样以局部重构为主的使用方式。

Abstract

Benes network can achieve low construction costs and high throughput on high-radix-switching scenarios. However

existing route-resolving algorithms corresponding to Benes network do not guarantee rearrangeable non-blocking (RNB) switching when suffering failure of some of its internal switch units. An unbalanced Benes network was proposed and its RNB switching trait could be guaranteed in certain conditions. A trimming method to convert a Benes network to unbalanced Benes network was proposed

through which failed switching units could be blocked

and fault-tolerant switching was achieved. When solving yield rate problems of the switch array

the trimming method demonstrated advantages over the conventional method on RNB switching radix

with 56.05% in average and 93.75% in maximum. When solving high reliability switching problems of the switch array

the trimming method had 12.5% to 21.9% higher switching radix when tolerating maximum 3 faulty switch units. Moreover

a fast route-resolving method for unbalanced Benes network was proposed and verified via field programmable gate array (FPGA)

and the result shows that it doesn’t become the bottleneck of the system. Furthermore

through the trimming method

controllable partial reconfiguration of Benes network can be achieved

so Crossbar-like switching form based on partial reconfiguration is also supported by Benes network.
