Abstract
In a header driven type packet switching system, all incoming and outgoing lines required for the system are divided into groups to constitute a two stage structure of incoming and outgoing modules, which are prepared for the respective incoming and outgoing line groups. In each incoming module, outgoing module and outgoing line, information is given to packets, and the data packets are successively transferred from the outgoing modules to the corresponding outgoing lines. Thus, the system can flexibly cope with an increase of the incoming lines and the number of calls.
