As window sized increases, the throughput input-buffered packet switch with a window scheme improves on random traffic condition. However, the improvement diminishes quickly under bursty traffic. In this paper, we propose Burst Head Addressable FIFO mechanism and memory structure having search capability in unit of burst header to compensate the sensitiveness of the windowed scheme to bursty traffic. The performance of a input-buffered switch using the proposed Burst Header Addressable FIFO input buffer was analyzed using computer simulations. The maximum throughput of the conventional FIFO scheme approaches an asymptotic value 0.5 as mean burst length increases. The maximum throughput of the proposed scheme is greater than that of the conventional scheme for any mean burst length and window size.
