Optimization of passive optical network planning

Ethernet Passive Optical Network (epon)

Ethernet Passive Optical Network (EPON) is a point to multipoint network architecture and suitable for carrying Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) service because it provisions higher bandwidth for downstream, but it also cannot satisfy the bandwidth requirement of tens of thousands of IPTV channels and carry these channels simultaneously. Previous papers had proposed some multicast mechanisms...

A Review on Passive Optical Network

In this paper, passive optical network and its techniques have been reviewed. Due to the property of high bandwidth and energy saving, Passive optical network can be a better solution for the networks accessed in future. Traffic pattern has evolved to video and image based services from voice and text oriented services in the access networks. For the support of symmetric, high-speed and perfect...

Passive optical network (PON) supported networking

In this editorial, we first set the context for the subject matter of this special issue on passive optical network (PON) supported networking. This context includes a discussion of optical networking in all segments of a global communication network and the emphasis of the importance of PONs in the access network as well as their role supporting other communication network technologies. We fol...

Multimode Passive Optical Network for LAN Application

Evolution to 200G Passive Optical Network

New generation passive optical network aims at providing more than 100 Gb/s capacity. Thanks to recent progress enabling a variety of optical transceivers up to 40 Gb/s, many evolution possibilities to 200G PONs (passive optical network) could be investigated. This work proposes two directly deployable cases of evolution to 200G PON based on the combination of these improved optical transceiver...
