In this paper, we evaluate the passive optical network based on the transmitting power constraint. A theoretical analysis is carried out to evaluate the performance of a Passive optical network (PON) in the presence of crosstalk due to optical fiber nonlinearities. In this paper most significant nonlinear effects such as four wave mixing (FWM), stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) are investigated...

Optical networks offering ultra-high capacity and low energy consumption per bit are considered as a good option to handle the rapidly growing traffic volume inside data center (DCs). Consequently, several optical interconnect architectures for DCs have already been proposed. However, most of the architectures proposed so far are mainly focused on the aggregation/core tiers of the data center n...

Awavelength-routed, optical network employs all-optical channels (lightpaths) on multiple wavelengths to establish a rearrangeable interconnection pattern (virtual topology) for transport of data. A lightpath may span multiple ber-links, and may be routed optically at an intermediate node without undergoing electronic conversion. We examine the problem of establishing a set of lightpaths in an ...

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 Con...

With the continuous increase in bandwidth demand generated by consumer and business applications, a new higher capacity access network is required. Today, with the development of electronic media and its usage most of the networks having more number of nodes and as the number of nodes increases in the network the communication over the network also increases. A reliable end packet delivery is t...
