We propose the asymmetric 2.5Gbps/622Mbps PON(Passive Optical Network) in order to reduce the bandwith of filter at receiver with inverse RZ(Return to Zero) code coded downstream and NRZ(Non Return to Zero) upstream re-modulation. I theoretically analyze BER(Bit Error Rate) performance and the power sensitivity with the optimal threshold level by performing simulation with MATLAB according to the types of downstream data. The results have shown that the optimal threshold level at the optical receiver could be saturated at 0.33 as the optical received power increase more than -26dBm to keep $10^{-12}$ of BER to a minimum. Also the power sensitivity is more improved by about 3dB by fixing the threshold level at 0.33 than the conventional receiver. The proposed system can be a useful technology for optical access networks with asymmetric upstream and downstream data rates because the optical receiver can be used without controlling threshold levels and that does not require a light source in optical network unit (ONU) and its control circuits in the optical line termination (OLT).

This paper proposes a cost-effective hybrid-type power budget extender (PBEx) that can provide a high power budget of over 45 dB in an asymmetric 10-Gb/s Ethernet passive optical network (10/1G-EPON). The hybrid-type 10/1G-EPON PBEx comprises a central office terminal (COT) and remote terminal (RT) module supporting four channels and uses a coarse wavelength division multiplexing (CWDM) technology between the COT and RT for a reduction of fiber cost and efficient access network design. The proposed 10/1G-EPON PBEx can provide over a 40-km reach and 128-way split per CWDM wavelength with no modification of a legacy 10/1G-EPON system and can satisfy the error-free service in $10^{10}$ packet transmission.

Ethernet passive optical network (EPON) has drawn many attention as a promising access network technology because it can provide a high bandwidth with a low cost. Since the uplink in the EPON system is shared by many users, it is necessary for an EPON system to have an efficient bandwidth allocation mechanism. In addition, as the users demand more QoS-oriented applications, it is necessary for an EPON system to have an efficient mechanism supporting QoS. In this paper, we propose a variable window dynamic bandwidth allocation (DBA) algorithm for the EPON system. Unlike the previously proposed DBA algorithms, the variable window algorithm guarantees the QoS for the highest priority class, and at the same time provides more enhanced QoS for the lower priority classes by dynamically allocating bandwidth if necessary. It is verified through the simulations that the variable window algorithm can provide more enhanced QoS performance than other DBA algorithms.

A cost-effective dense WDM-PON employing wavelength-locked Fabry-Perot lasers has been demonstrated. We have successfully demonstrated a dense WDM transmission of 4×622 Mb/s upstream signal with 50-GHz channel spacing over 30-km conventional single mode fiber. We have also investigated the heating noise characteristics of a wavelength-locked Fabry-Perot laser and showed the wavelength-locked Fabry-Perot laser suppresses the intensity noise of the incoherent light injected which enables a dense WDM transmission with a channels spacing of 50 GHz.

본 논문에서는 2012년 12월에 표준화가 확정된 NG-PON2(Next Generation-Passive Optical Network2)를 기반으로 하는 액세스 전달망 시스템에서 동작파장을 초기화하는 다양한 방법 및 전송 채널 관리기술에 대한 국내외 동향을 제시하고, 새로운 파장 초기화 및 채널관리 기법을 제안하고 실험결과를 제시한다. 제안되는 기법은 필터링된 파장가변 광원에서 각각 수신된 전기적 신호들간 크기차이를 계산하여 이를 통해, 파장대역을 할당한다. 확보된 파장영역에서 시스템 링크가 물리적으로 연결이 되면, 연결된 광루트를 통해 발생하는 광원의 역반사 효과를 이용하여 전송채널의 동작 파장의 정확도를 향상시킨다. 결정된 채널내에서 광원의 동작 파장의 정확도를 향상시키기 위해서 에코잉(echoing) 기법, 즉, 가입자 송신단에서 전송된 광원이 중앙 기지국 수신단에서 적절하게 수신이 되는 지를 체크하게 된다. 이러한 기법을 이용하여, 광 회선 단말 장치가 광 종단 장치의 광원의 파장을 인지하지 못한 상태에서 동작파장을 찾는 시간이 최대 2초 이내에서 이루어짐을 확인하였다. 또한, 파장 가변형 레이저의 파장특성에 무관하게 동작함을 3개의 파장(1577.86nm, 1578.69nm, 1579.52nm)을 무작위로 선택하여 구동한 결과, 파장 대역 및 동작파장을 소수점 둘째자리까지 확보하는 것을 검증하였다.

This paper describes a novel burst-mode clock and data recovery (CDR) circuit which can be used for 622Mbps burst mode applications. The CDR circuit is basically a phase locked loop (PLL) having two phase detectors (PDs), one for the reference clock and the other for the NRZ data, whose operations are controlled by an external control signal. This CDR was fabricated in a 1-poly 5-metal $0.25{\;}\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS technology. Jitter generation, burst/continuous mode data receptions were tested. Operational frequency range is 320Mhz~720Mhz and BER is less than 1e-12 for PRBS31 at 622Mhz. For the same data sequence, the extracted clock jitter is less than 8ps rms. Power consumption of 100mW was measured without I/O circuits.

Ethernet passive optical network (EPON) has drawn many attention as a promising access network technology for FTTH because it can provide a high bandwidth with a low cost. Since the uplink bandwidth in the EPON system is shared by many users, it is necessary for an EPON system to have an efficient bandwidth allocation mechanism. To support QoS in EPON, the previous bandwidth allocation schemes employ strict priority queueing (SPQ). Since SPQ gives unlimited priority to higher service class, the QoS of lower service classes gets worse. In this paper, we propose Class Gated DBA (Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation) algorithm in which the bandwidth is requested / granted in a service class basis. To avoid the monopoly in bandwidth usage by higher classes the maximum bandwidth that is allocate to each service class is limited (fairness between services classes). In addition, to avoid the monopoly in bandwidth usage by some particular users, each ONU runs fairness bandwidth allocation algorithm within each service classes. Through computer simulations, it is verified that the proposed algorithm achieves a good level of QoS, and at the same time maintains a good level of fairness between both service classes and users.

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.

QoS is an important requirement of the FTTH (Fiber To The Home) subscriber in access network using E-PON (Ethernet Passive Optical Network). In this research, we describe the structure of the access network and propose a bandwidth guarantee scheme for subscriber and service according to the requirements of the subscriber, service and system. This scheme uses two kinds of the classification table, which are called 'service classification table' and 'subscriber classification table.' Using the classification table, we can identify the flow of the subscriber and service. Also, we compute the number of hash table entry to minimize the loss ratio of flows using the M/G/k/k queueing model. Finally, we apply the DRR scheduling through virtual queueing per subscriber instead of the aggregated class.
