    摘要: The present invention relates to the field of silicon photonics technologies and discloses a routing node, an optical switching network, and an optical signal transmission method. The routing node includes: at least one optical buffer, a switching node, and at least one transmission waveguide, where an output end of each optical buffer is connected to an input end of the switching node; and each transmission waveguide is connected to an output end of the switching node. The method includes: receiving an optical signal by using an optical buffer, and parsing the optical signal, to obtain an identifier of a destination routing node; determining whether an output port required by the destination routing node is currently idle or busy; and if the output port required by the destination routing node is busy, storing the optical signal in the optical buffer, and until the output port required by the destination routing node is idle, sending the stored optical signal to the destination routing node by using a transmission waveguide corresponding to the output port required by the destination routing node; or if the output port required by the destination routing node is idle, sending the optical signal to the destination routing node by using a transmission waveguide corresponding to the output port required by the destination routing node. According to the present invention, circuit complexity of a switching node and an optical buffer is simplified.
