Abstract: In first generation optical networks, optical fibers provided only point-to-point connections. Entire potential of the fiber could not be utilized, because the electronic routers operate at a much lower speed than the fiber capacity. Wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology, were deployed in the second generation optical networks and in second generation contain three switching techniques 1) Circuit switching 2) Packet switching 3) Burst switching. Optical burst switching combines the best features of circuit and packet switching and – hopefully - avoids the worst of both. Optical burst switching (OBS) is the promising area it can meet the bandwidth requirement of bandwidth intensive application. OBS is switching technique for the next generation optical networks. However, there are certain issues such as burst aggregation, scheduling, contention resolution and QoS that needs to be addressed in OBS. In this paper, we summarize the results of current research trends on optical burst switching networks. We present the classification of different scheduling algorithms and contention resolution techniques.
