Abstract

Ethernet passive optical network is an economical and efficient access network that has received significant research attention in recent years. A MAC(Media Access Control) protocol of PON, the next generation access network, is based on TDMA(Time Division Multiple Access) basically. In this thesis, we addressed the problem of dynamic bandwidth allocation in QoS based Ethernet PONs. We augmented the bandwidth allocation to support QoS in a differentiated services framework. Our differentiated bandwidth guarantee allocation(DBGA) allocates effectively and fairly bandwidths among end users. Moreover, we showed that DBGA that perform weighted bandwidth allocation for high priority packets result in better performance in terms of average and maximum packet delay, as well as network throughput compared with existing dynamic bandwidth allocations. We used simulation experiments to study the performance and validate the effectiveness of the proposed bandwidth allocations.

EPON(Ethernet Passive Optical Network)은 최근 활발하게 연구되고 있는 경제적이고 효율적인 가입자 접속망이다. 차세대 접속망인 EPON의 MAC(Media Access Control) 프로토콜은 TDMA(Time Division Multiple Access)방식을 기본으로 QoS(Quality of Service)를 보장하기 위한 다양한 대역폭 할당 방식이 제안되고 있다. 기존에 제안된 방식은 고순위(high priority) 트래픽에 대한 요구 대역폭에 일정한 비율의 대역폭을 추가하여 대역폭을 할당함에 따라 전체 싸이클 시간이 증가하여 패킷 지연 시간이 길어지는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 QoS 기반의 EPON에서 차등 서비스(differentiated service)를 지원하는 동적 대역폭 할당을 위하여 기존에 제안된 방식의 문제점을 해결하는 효율적인 차등 대역폭할당 방식 DBGA(Differentiated Bandwidth Gurrantee Allocation)을 제안한다. DBGA는 효율적으로 공평하게 사용자에게 대역폭을 할당하고 고순위(high priority) 트래픽에 대하여 평균 및 최대 패킷 지연에서 우수한 성능을 보여준다. 제안된 방식의 성능을 분석하고 효율성을 검증하기 의하여 OPNET을 이용하여 EPON을 모델링하고 시뮬레이션을 한다.
