N2 - Contrary to Optical Circuit Switching (OCS), Optical Burst Switching (OBS) is efficient for bursty traffic but also weak in guaranteeing the delivery of real-time traffic. We have proposed an OBS enhancement approach, called Labeled OBS with Home Circuits or LOBS-HC, which provides each source-destination pair with a wavelength sharable home circuit for the real-time traffic, so it can guarantee lossless transmission with a short delay. In previous works, we have shown that LOBS-HC requires less resources and provides a better QoS to the real-time traffic than OCS, since it does statistical multiplexing. Here, we extend the study of LOBS-HC. First, we study a few possible design choices in LOBS-HC. Then we evaluate its performance under not only real-time traffic, but also best-effort traffic. Finally, we analyze the effects of the switching speed and the burst size on the performance.
