A novel multiple access scheme for Ethernet passive optical networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Multiple access control is an important issue in Ethernet Passive Optical Networks (EPON). It is needed for traffic from different ONUs to share the upstream channel. The IEEE 802.3ah Ethernet in the First Mile (EFM) Task Force has specified a multipoint control protocol (MPCP) for this purpose. We propose a novel multiple access control scheme consisting of a parameter-based Call Admission Control (CAC) mechanism, the Evenly Distributed Algorithm (EDA), and the Bandwidth Guarantee Polling (BGP) algorithm. Our scheme can guarantee bandwidth for high-demand customers while providing best-effort service to low-demand customers according to the service level agreement (SLA). Simulation results show that the proposed scheme is very efficient.

A Bandwidth Guaranteed Polling MAC Protocol for Ethernet Passive Optical Networks
While the backbone networks have experienced substantial changes in the last decade; the access networks have not changed much. Recently, passive optical networks (PONs) seem to be ready for commercial deployment in access networks due to the maturity of a number of enabling technologies. long distance and reduced maintenance. Among PON technologies, the Ethernet PON (EPON) presently being stan...

Byungjoo Park et al. 301 As broadband access is evolving from digital subscriber lines to optical access networks, Ethernet passive optical networks (EPONs) are considered a promising solution for next generation broadband access. The point-tomultipoint topology of EPONs requires a time-division multiple access MAC protocol for upstream transmission. In this paper, we propose a new enhanced dyn...
