In recent year, several types of PON(Passive Optical Networks) have been adopted into the subscriber loops for the high speed subscriber lines to meet the needs of some applications based on the Internet and the rapid increase of the Internet users. GPON(Gigabit PON) is a typical access network technology of these PONs which adopt the DBA(Dynamic bandwidth Allocation) scheme in order to transmit upstream traffic efficiently. In this paper, we introduce the gated polling system with a two-stage queue in order to analyze the delay performance of the DBA scheme in a GPON. We use a continuous time queueing model for deriving the mean cycle time and for obtaining the mean packet delay. We give some numerical results to investigate the delay performance for the symmetric polling system with statistically identical stations.

Because EPON access network shares a medium and aggregates the traffic from EPON subscribers, scheduling media access control on EPON bandwidth allocation is very important. Furthermore DBA mechanism of EPON based on TDMA is out of specification and up to implementation. This paper deals with a DBA method to guarantee the QoS of the delay sensitive traffic on the base of best-effort service and delay priority queue management. The proposed method performs virtual scheduling algorithm for the integrated traffic. It uses the same MAC messages and tries to guarantee the QoS of higher priority traffic first with a simple DBA architecture. We evaluate the algorithm for traffic delay according to polling interval and traffic load of upstream and downstream. The results show that the proposed method can guarantee the QoS of the delay sensitive traffic with priority of the service classes.

Due to advance in multimedia applications and integrated Internet services, the optical access networks have been actively studied. In particular, Ethernet passive optical network (EPON) has received much attention due to high bandwidth provision with low cost. In EPON system, the data transmission is carried out in two directions: downstream (from OLT to ONU) and upstream (from ONU to OLT). The downstream data is broadcasted to every ONUs, while the upstream data is point-to-point transmitted between each ONU and OLT, where the uplink is shared by all ONUs in the form of TDMA. The bandwidth allocation algorithm is required to efficiently manage the bandwidth on the uplink. The limited algorithm was proposed to enhance the capability of dynamic bandwidth allocation. In this paper, we propose the adaptive limited algorithm to enhance the shortcomings of limited algorithm. The adaptive limited algorithm enhances the dynamics on bandwidth allocation, and at the same time controls the fairness on packet delay. Through the computer simulations, it is shown that the adaptive limited algorithm achieves high dynamic on bandwidth allocation, maintains a good fairness on packet delay between ONUs, and keeps the fairness on the bandwidth on the demand basis.

In the TDMA PON system, the DBA is essential for ONUs to send data efficiently to the upstream. In this paper, we implement a DBA processor for the G-PON OLT with downstream and upstream rate, 2.5 and 1.25 Gbps, respectively, The processor collects bandwidth request messages from ONUs at every cycle time and allocates properly bandwidth to each Alloc-ID with considering priority and fairness for traffics. In the proposed DBA algorithm, one cycle time consists of multiple G-PON frames ($m{\times}125{\mu}s$) for high link efficiency. In particular, the link efficiency is higher because the algorithm adopts a method that an additional overhead is eliminated when an allocated bandwidth is laid between two G-PON frames for an ONU. This enables that the processor flexibly allocates the bandwidth from zero to the maximum link capacity for an ONU. The proposed DBA processor is implemented with the FPGA and shows bandwidth allocating processes for ONUs with logic analyzer.

Recently, many multimedia services have emerged in Internet such as real-time and non- real time services. However, in this Internet environment, we have some limitations to satisfy each service feature. To guarantee the service features in Measurement-Based Admission Control(MBAC) based system on the flow-aware network, there is the method applying Dynamic Priority Scheduling(DPS) algorithm that gives a higher priority to an earlier incoming flow in all of the link bandwidth. This paper classifies all flows under several groups according to flow characteristics on per-flow MBAC algorithm based system. In each flow group, DPS algorithm is applied. This paper proposes two methods that are a DPS based bandwidth borrowing method and a bandwidth dynamic allocation method. The former is that if low priority class has available bandwidths, the flow of high priority class borrows the bandwidth of low priority class when high priority flow has insufficient bandwidth to connect a flow call. The later is that the each group has a minimum bandwidth and is allocated the bandwidth dynamically according to the excess rate for available bandwidth. We compare and analyze the characteristics of the two proposed methods through the simulation experiments. As the results of the experiment, the proposed methods are more effective than existing DPS based method on the packet loss and delay characteristics. Consequently the proposed two methods are very useful in various multimedia network environments.

In the upstream link of EPON, numerous ONUs In the reverse link of the EPON network, numerous ONUs receive the privileges to use the optical medium from the scheduler of the LOT, but not through the competition with others. Therefore, it is very important to select a proper DBA algorithm to allocatethe frequency band to each ONU in an effectively and fair manner. In our preceding study, we proposed the RC-DBA algorithm that complements many problems in existing DBA algorithms. In this paper, we designed the MAC scheduler for the OLT, which the proposed algorithmwas applied to and implement it in the FPGA. In addition, in order to verify the operation of the scheduler, we developed the embedded Linux based testbed.

In this paper, we propose the dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithm for the IEEE802.3ah Ethernet Passive Optical Network(EPON) system to provide the fairness among terminals, and evaluate the delay-throughput performance by simulation. For the conventional EPON systems, an Optical Line Termination (OLT) schedules the upstream bandwidth for each Optical Network Unit (ONU), based on its buffer state. This scheme can provide a fair bandwidth allocation for each ONU. However, it has a critical problem that it does not guarantee the fair bandwidth among terminals which are connected to ONUs. For an example, we assume that the traffic from a greedy terminal increases at a time. Then, the buffer state of its ONU is instantly reported to the OLT, and finally the OW can get more bandwidth. As a result, the less bandwidth is allocated to the other ONUs, and thus the transfer delay of terminals connected to the ONUs gets inevitably increased. Noting that this unfairness problem exists in the conventional EPON systems, we propose a fair bandwidth allocation scheme by OLT with considering the buffer state of ONU as welt as the number of terminals connected it. For the performance evaluation, we develop the EPON simulation model with SIMULA simulation language. From the result of the throughput-delay performance and the dynamics of buffer state along time for each terminal and ONU, respectively, one can see that the proposed scheme can provide the fairness among not ONUs but terminals. Finally, it is worthwhile to note that the proposed scheme for the public EPON systems might be an attractive solution for providing the fairness among subscriber terminals.

In this paper, a channel access control algorithm and a dynamic slot allocation algorithm are proposed for rt_VBR services and ABR services in the wireless ATM networks. In the proposed algorithm, rt_VBR terminals that require real-time services transmit a reservation request packet by a RAS minislot. An rt_VBR terminal, which transmitted the reservation request packet, transmits the dynamic parameters by DPS minislot without contention. On the other hand, ABR terminals that have a non-real-time traffic burst transfer a reservation request packet with contention basis. Based on the received dynamic parameters, the base station scheduler allocates uplink data slots as well as DPS minislot into rt_VBR terminals.
