Book excerpt: With the advances in optical technology, the span of a broadband access network using Passive Optical Network (PON) technology can be increased from today's standard of 20 km to 100 km or higher. Such an extended-reach PON is known as Long-Reach PON (LR-PON). This technology can enable broadband access for a large number of customers in the access/metro area, while decreasing capital and operational expenditures for the network operator. Therefore, it is very desirable to comprehensively investigate this technology for future broadband access. This dissertation is dedicated to the research of architecture, management, and reliability of LR-PON. This dissertation first reviews the evolutionary path of access networks and shows the drivers from technology and business perspectives for high bandwidth and low cost. A variety of research challenges in this field is reviewed, from optical components in the physical layer to the control and management issues in the upper layers. We discuss the requisites for optical sources, optical amplifiers, and optical receivers in optical access networks with high transmission rate (10 Gbps) and large power attenuation (due to large split, transmission over 100 km and beyond, and propagation). We analyze the key topological structures to guarantee physical protection (e.g., tree-and-branch, ring-and-spur). Then, some relevant demonstrations of Long-Reach optical access networks developed worldwide by different research institutes are presented. A major challenge in LR-PON is that the propagation delay (for data as well as control signals) between the telecom central office (CO) and the end user is increased by a very significant amount. Now, traditional PON algorithms for scheduling the upstream transmission, such as dynamic bandwidth allocation (DBA) algorithms, may not be sufficient; actually, they may lead to degraded performance because of the long delay of the CO-to-Users "control loop". This challenge motivates us to propose and study a multi-thread polling algorithm to effectively and fairly distribute the upstream bandwidth dynamically. This algorithm exploits the benefits of having multiple polling processes running simultaneously and enabling users to send bandwidth requests before receiving acknowledgement from the CO. We compare the proposed algorithm with traditional DBA, and show its advantage on average packet delay. With the increased bandwidth requests from the expanding base of users, LR-PON should utilize the network resource (e.g., wavelengths, lasers, etc.) more effectively. We propose a new and efficient protocol to achieve better utilization of tunable lasers, as well as wavelength resources across different user groups in LR-PON. In order to accommodate downstream bursty traffic and provide Quality of Service (QoS) in the user-specified Service-Level Agreements (SLA), the protocol integrates our proposed SLA-aware bandwidth allocation scheme based on flow scheduling. We show the protocol's advantage to support incremental upgrade of bandwidth with increasing user bandwidth requests, and to provide a user with a SLA which guarantees a number of streaming flows with average bandwidth and maximum delay guarantee (e.g., 5 ms), as well as data flows with average bandwidth specifications. Since LR-PON serves a lot more users, a network failure may lead to a huge amount of data loss and negative user experience. Thus, to understand the importance of LR-PON survivability, we propose hardware-accelerated protection schemes for the LR-PON, incorporating the "ring-and-spur" structure to achieve fast protection-switching time, and automatic failure location at the Optical Line Terminal (OLT), which is located at the head end of the optical access network. We design the protection schemes for multiple network environments, e.g., unidirectional transmission vs. bidirectional transmission, and 1+1 protection vs. 1:1 protection. The numerical examples demonstrate that protection paths can be established within a few tens of ms after a failure occurs. This dissertation makes important contributions by studying novel architectures, protocols, and algorithms of LR-PON that will help to improve the next-generation telecom access networks.

This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present access services like video on demand, live streaming, online gaming etc. require enormous amount of bandwidth and traditional digital subscriber line technology fails to meet up this requirement. The next generation networks, in particular, hybrid WDM-TDM Long-Reach Passive Optical Networks provide the required bandwidth and reduce the operational expenditure. Laser sources used at the Optical Network Units increase the cost due the extra equipment required for stabilizing the operating wavelength. To overcome this, a centralized source is installed at the Optical Line Terminal and the signal is reflected and intensity-modulated at the ONU, by using a special optical device Reflective Semiconductor Amplifier (RSOA), thus making the end receiver unit "colourless." The analytical model for RSOA has been described in detailed in this book. The primary objective of this enitre work is to examine the feasibility of hybrid WDM-TDM LR-PON physical layer uplink setup consisting of reflective ONUs with due consideration to the BER performance in presence of realistic and non-ideal characteristics of optical and optoelectronic devices used in the setup.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To bring the high capacity of the optical fiber closer to the end users with affordable costs, passive optical network (PON) was introduced and developed as a promising access network technology over the past decade. Long-reach PON (LR-PON) extends the coverage span of PONs from the traditional 20 km range to 100 km, consolidates the multiple active sites and thus lowers the costs. Besides extending the reach, energy conservation, which is of growing concern today, gives LR-PON a brand new advantage over its competitors. In this dissertation, we focus on the intersection of these two topics, namely Energy-Efficient LR-PON. We present several distinct schemes with the potential for substantial energy savings under practical settings, while not significantly affecting the network's performance. We develop and evaluate novel architectures, protocols, and algorithms for a LR-PON to will help to improve the performance of next-generation telecom access networks. One major component of LR-PON is the optical line terminal (OLT), which is deployed in central offices. Specifically for energy savings in OLT, we propose a centralized network planning approach based on user behaviors. By considering the different network usage behaviors of different kinds of users, we develop an efficient user-assignment scheme in which users with complementary behaviors are assigned to the same network segment to share the bandwidth. This achieves high bandwidth utilization at all times, and reduces the number of wavelengths needed, thus lowing cost and energy usage. Heuristic searches can provide such assignments, and their approximate solutions are very close to the lower bound. We then extend our work to the network operation (i.e., traffic engineering) stage, where an energy-efficient dynamic wavelength allocation scheme is developed on the "ring-and-spur" LR-PON. This scheme enables a wavelength to be dropped dynamically at multiple remote nodes, making it possible for users in different network segments to share downstream capacity in a statistical multiplexing fashion. The wavelength allocation may also be dynamically changed according to the network traffic so that the OLT can efficiently utilize all operational wavelengths. The other major component of LR-PON is the optical network unit (ONU), a remote unit close to the users. We propose a service-level agreement (SLA)-based scheduling scheme, in which the sleep time of an ONU can be adjusted and the ONU can quit sleep mode to send high-priority packets. Our proposal solves the problems of slow transition of power from active mode to sleep mode in an ONU and the relatively large recovery and synchronization time needed during the wakeup process. The tradeoff in energy savings vs. delay performance is evaluated using simulations under practical power-consumption settings. We also study the effects of arrayed-waveguide grating (AWG) and erbium-doped-fiber amplifier (EDFA) on bit-error rate (BER) in LR-PON, and propose both short-term and long-term distance-aware wavelength allocation schemes to balance the BER among ONUs at different distances. Simulation results show that average BER improves and the relative standard deviation decreases.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wavelength-division-multiplexed passive optical network (WDM PON) has long been considered as an ultimate solution for the future optical access network capable of providing practically unlimited bandwidth to each subscriber. On the other hand, it is still considered to be too expensive for the massive deployment. To solve this problem and meet the ever-increasing demand for bandwidth, there have been numerous efforts to improve the competitiveness of WDM PON. This chapter reviews the current status and future direction of these WDM PON technologies. We first review various colorless light sources, which are critical for the cost-effective implementation of the optical network units (ONUs), and several representative network architectures proposed for WDM PONs. We then review the recent research activities for the realization of high-speed (>10Gb/s) and long-reach WDM PONs. Various fault-monitoring and protection techniques are also reviewed as they can be increasingly important in the future high-capacity WDM PONs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long reach passive optical networks (PONs) are currently emerging as one of the leading candidates for the next generation of telecommunications access networks, which will provide end customers with future high bandwidth interactive and video-rich services. In order to satisfy future bandwidth demand in an economic fashion it is likely that PON technology will need to evolve dramatically from that which is commercially available today. In particular the reach of these networks will need to increase fivefold to around 100km and the supported data rates will jump by nearly an order of magnitude to around 10Gb/s. In this thesis a hybrid dense wavelength division multiplexed- time division multiple access passive optical network (DWDM-TDMA PON) suitable for use in next generation optical access networks is proposed and studied. In order to implement such challenging architectures new types of high speed, burst mode optical transmission techniques are required, which enable bandwidth sharing between users on the network. This project has developed these new burst mode techniques and sub-systems required to enable these new networks. The main aim of the investigations in this thesis are in overcoming all the physical layer challenges due to 10Gb/s burst mode nature of transmission in these types of networks. A range of investigations, both of a theoretical and experimental nature, such as the dynamics of optical amplifiers, interferometric noise mitigation, suppression of crosstalk from multiple sources, maximum transmission distance, etc., are carried out to optimise the performance of individual components as well as the fully integrated system. The suitability of hybrid DWDM-TDMA architectures as a cost effective solution for use in future optical access networks is verified through full-scale network demonstrations in an experimental long reach PON laboratory test-bed.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thesis investigates a new long-reach passive optical networks (LRPON) architecture based on multi-band coherent optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (CO-OFDM). The proposed CO-OFDM based LRPON system is characterized by a novel phase noise compensation mechanism aiming to deal with optical signal dispersion in long-range transmissions. By employing a dispersion compensating fiber (DCF) and local oscillator (LO) laser phase shifter for each end-to-end transmission between OLT and ONU, we will show the phase noise due to dispersion can be effectively mitigated. Simulation of the downlink traffic between one optical line terminal (OLT) and 12 optical network units (ONUs) is performed successfully at different fiber lengths, at the data rate of 10$Gbps$ per ONU. The required BER for the forward error correction (FEC) has been achieved for most ONUs, using a dispersion compensating fiber (DCF) and local oscillator (LO) laser phase shifter to compensate for the chromatic dispersion (CD) and the polarization mode dispersion (PMD), respectively.

This book was released on 2008-07-16 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fibre-to-the-Home networks constitute a fundamental telecom segment with the required potential to match the huge capacity of transport networks with the new user communication demands. Huge investments in access network infrastructure are expected for the next decade, with many initiatives already launched around the globe recently, driven by the new broadband service demands and the necessity by operators to deploy a future-proof infrastructure in the field. Dense FTTH Passive Optical Networks (PONs) is a cost-efficient way to build fibre access, and international standards (G/E-PON) have been already launched, leading to new set of telecom products for mass deployment. However, these systems only make use of less than 1% of the optical bandwidth; thus, relevant research is taking place to maximize the capacity of these systems, with the latest opto-electronic technologies, demonstrating that the huge bandwidth available through the fibre access can be exploited in a cost-efficient and reliable manner. Next-Generation FTTH Passive Optical Networks gathers and analyzes the most relevant techniques developed recently on technologies for the next generation FTTH networks, trying to answer the question: what’s after G/E-PONs?

This book was released on 2013 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In order to enable new services that require high data rates over longer distances, the optical ber substitutes the copper cable step by step in the access network area. Time division multiplexed-Passive optical network (TDM-PON) is a fast emerging architecture that uses only passive components between the customer and the central office. PON operators need a monitoring system for the physical layer to guarantee high service quality. This monitoring system is necessary during the ber installation, final network installation testing, regular operation of the network, and for fault localization. In this book, we present the motivations, requirements and challenges of TDM-PON monitoring. We made an exhaustive review and comparison of the monitoring techniques and systems for TDM-PON, mostly proposed within the last five years. We have discussed the open issues and future research perspectives in physical layer PON monitoring that may target higher performance, lower cost, or scalability to next generation PON architectures. This includes wavelength division multiplexing (WDM), TDM over WDM or long-reach PONs intended to extend the reach from 20 up to 100 km distances and beyond.
