This invited paper describes about mobile wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) backhaul network designs for future radio access networks. First, it introduces mobile backhaul requirements to support LTE-Advanced and Beyond with emphasis on coordinated multipoints (CoMP) techniques. It primarily considers WDM passive optical networks (WDM-PON) as promising optical access technologies for mobil...

To meet the demands of different high bandwidth service, OFDM-PON has been considered as one of the candidates for NG-PON2. In this paper, downstream transmission performance based on LDPC-OFDM coding PON system is studied. The simulation results show that employing the LDPC-OFDM coding in PON system can achieve 10 Gb/s downstream transmission. The transmission performance of the LDPC-OFDM syst...

Stroke is the leading cause of mortality and morbidity world wide, particularly in the elderly. Oxidative stress is an independent risk factor by inducing production of oxygen free radicals in ischemic stroke. Because a relationship may be hypothesized between paraoxanase (PON) and malondialdehyde(MDA),the aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between PON and oxidative stress wi...

10-Gigabit-capable Passive Optical Network (XG-PON), one of the latest standards of optical access networks, is regarded as one of the key technologies for future Internet access networks. This paper presents the design and evaluation of our XG-PON module for the ns-3 network simulator. This module is designed and implemented with the aim to provide a standards-compliant, configurable, and exte...

This Paper Proposes a Survey study of fully distributed Ethernet over Star coupled PON (Passive Optical Network) Architecture. The architecture uses a collision free DBA scheme in which the Optical line Terminal (OLT) is excluded from the implementation of the time slot assignment. To have a distributed architecture, Optical Network Units (ONU’s) must be in place without imposing any constraint...

OBJECTIVE the present study was conducted to investigate the oxidant-antioxidant status in Egyptian children with sickle cell anemia. METHODS the serum levels of total antioxidant capacity (TAO), paraoxonase (PON), vitamin E, nitrite, and malondialdehyde (MDA) were measured in 40 steady state children with homozygous sickle cell anemia (24 males and 16 females) and 20 apparently healthy age- ...

Variations in mismatch repair (MMR) system genes are causative of Lynch syndrome and other cancers. Thousands of variants have been identified in MMR genes, but the clinical relevance is known for only a small proportion. Recently, the InSiGHT group classified 2,360 MMR variants into five classes. One-third of variants, majority of which is nonsynonymous variants, remain to be of uncertain clin...

Introduction of the GE-PON system has accelerated the use of FTTH in Japan, changing the access network from simply an Internet connection to a social infrastructure that provides services directly related to daily life, such as IP telephone service. Mitsubishi Electric has the largest share of the GE-PON market in Japan and is now working on the next generation GE-PON. The role of the NGN is b...

In this paper, the performance and feasibility of a hybrid wavelength division multiplexing/time division multiplexing passive optical network (WDM/TDM PON) system with 128 optical network units (ONUs) is analysed. In this system, triple play services (video, voice and data) are successfully communicated through a distance of up to 28 km. Moreover, we analysed and compared the performance of va...
