We have demonstrated an amplified wavelength-division multiplexed (WDM) passive optical network (PON) by using broadband light source (BLS) seeded optical sources and chirped fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) based dispersion compensators. Chirped FBGs located at central office (CO) were fabricated and used as channel-by-channel dispersion compensators in order to mitigate the dispersion-induced distortion of both downstream and upstream signals. Owing to a low insertion loss of chirped FBG based dispersion compensator, the optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) of the downstream signal could be improved to be ~28 dB. Thus, we re-confirmed that an error-free transmission of 1.25 Gb/s signals over a 100 km single-mode fiber (SMF) link could be achieved with a proposed amplified WDM-PON architecture. We have also evaluated the impact of various noises on the system's performance, and found that the low OSNR of the downstream signal would be a main limiting factor on the maximum reach of the proposed amplified WDM-PON architecture. From the measured ~13 dB improvement in OSNR of the downstream signal compared to our previously-proposed dispersion compensating module based scheme, we believe that the proposed architecture can accommodate a reach of longer than 100 km SMF link easily.

Long-Reach PON (LR-PON) is a broadband access network using passive optical network (PON) technology which the reach is extended to 100 km or higher. A major challenge in LR-PON is that the propagation delay between OLT and ONUs is increased by a very significant amount. To effectively and fairly distribute the upstream bandwidth dynamically in LR-PON, we propose a new periodic and multi-thread polling based dynamic bandwidth allocation (DBA) algorithm. We compare the proposed algorithm with traditional DBAs and show its advantage on average packet delay. Numerical results are analyzed under varying offered loads.

An external optical modulation using absorption s in a Fabry-Perot laser diode (FP-LD), has been proposed and experimentally demonstrated for multicasting in a WDM-PON. The center wavelengths of absorption s in an FP-LD move to short-wavelength rapidly by only a small current (~1 mA) injection. If the current injection is stopped, the s move back to the original position. Such a movement of the s can make the FP-LD act as an external optical modulator, which is found to modulate at a maximum modulation speed of 800 Mbps or more. For a multicasting transmitter in a WDM-PON, the proposed modulator can be cost-effectively applied to a multi-wavelength laser source with the same periodicity of the longitudinal mode. Instead of the multi-wavelength laser source, tunable-LDs are used for experiments. The 32 channel multicasting system with the proposed modulator has been demonstrated, showing power penalties of 1.53~4.15 dB at a bit error rate of $10^{-9}$ with extinction ratios better than 14.5 dB at 622 Mbps.

A large incoherent crosstalk (IC) caused by amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) noise power from Tx-disabled optical network units and a differential path loss has been shown to degrade upstream transmission performance in time-division multiplexing passive optical networks. This paper considers the IC-induced power penalty of an upstream signal both in an XG-PON and in a TWDM-PON. We investigate the degradation of the extinction ratio and relative intensity noise through a simulation and experiments. For the XG-PON case, we observe a 9.6 dB difference in the level of ASE noise power from Tx-disabled ONUs (hereafter known simply as ASE noise) between our result and the ITU-T XG-PON PMD recommendation. We propose an optical filtering method to mitigate an IC-induced power penalty. In the TWDM-PON case, the IC-induced power penalty is naturally negligible because the ASE noise is filtered by a wavelength multiplexer at the optical line terminal. The results provide design guidelines for the level of ASE noise in both XG-PONs and TWDM-PONs.

EPON which is the economical technology of FTTH is being actively researched as one of next generation of subscriber configurations. EPON based on Ethernet should provide subscriber with dynamic bandwidth allocation so as to support QoS. Allocation per service in grade should be satisfied resulting from the increment of the latest multimedia application arid consumption. In this paper, New Algorithm is proposed to serve differential service on MAC protocol. The delay characteristic of packet and stability are analyzed that is shown the QoS of EPON network.

We demonstrate a time- and wavelength-division multiplexed passive optical network system employing a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser array-based optical line terminal transceiver and a tunable bidirectional optical subassembly-based optical network terminal transceiver. A packet error-free operation is achieved after a 40 km single-mode fiber bidirectional transmission. We also discuss an arrayed waveguide grating, a photo detector array based on complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor photonics technologies, and low-cost key devices for deployment in access networks.

A novel WDM-PON system delivering bidirectional 1.25-Gbps data and broadcasting data is proposed. A subcarrier signal modulates optical carriers of a Fabry-Perot-laser-diode based broadband light source to broadcast to all users. Reflective semiconductor optical amplifiers are used as modulators for the baseband data at both the optical line terminal and the remote optical network unit for a channel. Bit error rate and error vector magnitude were measured to demonstrate the proposed scheme.

최근에 VOD, HDTV, 라이브 스트리밍 등의 서비스가 늘어나면서 가입자들은 광대역 서비스를 요구하고 있다. 이를 가입자에게 제공하기 위해서는 광대역폭을 지원할 수 있는 FTTH(Fiber to The Home)의 실현이 필수적이며, FTTH의 고비용과 설비 문제를 해결하기 위한 대안으로 PON(Passive Optical Network)이 부상하고 있다. PON은 네트워크를 시스템이 아닌 소자로 구성해, 일정거리까지는 하나의 광 회선을 설치하고 스플리터를 중심으로 여러 개로 회선을 분배하는 것이다. 이 또한 스플리터의 한계로 분배할 수 있는 회선이 제한적이며, 이를 해결하기 위한 방법으로 WDM(Wavelength Division Multiplexing)-PON이 고려되고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 WDM-PON에 적용할 수 있는 Ethemet 기반의 광 송수신 채널 유닛을 설계하였다. 채널 유닛은 1000BASE-T Ethernet 신호를 입력받아 파장별 DFB-LD에 직접 변조하는 방식을 사용하여 구현하였다

Novel 622Mb/s burst-mode clock and data recovery (CDR) circuits with muxed oscillators are realized for passive optical network (PON) application. The CDR circuits are implemented with 0.35$\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS process technology. Lock is accomplished on the first data transition and data are sampled in the optimal point. The experimental results show that the proposed CDR circuits recover the incoming 400Mbps-680Mbps burst mode input data without error.
