Protection to optical network units (ONUs) against failure of their distribution fibers (DFs) in a
long-reach passive optical network (LR-PON) is highly desirable to provide uninterrupted …

The next-generation passive optical networks (NG-PONs) are expected to offer very high
data rate to large number of users. Long-reach passive optical network (LR-PON) is …

Abstract Long-Reach Passive Optical Network (LR-PON) is known as a promising and
economical solution for Next-Generation PON (NG-PON). Survivability is one of the key …

In this paper we propose a novel clustering based multi-hop protection (referred to as
CMHP) heuristic scheme to protect against single shared-risk link group (SRLG) failure in a …

Due to increasing use of Internet in all walks of life user's demand for fast and highly
available Internet is rapidly increasing. Passive optical network (PON) is a key technology to …

Passive optical networks (PONs) are currently evolving into next-generation PONs (NG-
PONs) which aim at achieving higher data rates, wavelength channel counts, number of …

Dynamic provisioning of restorable bandwidth guaranteed paths is a challenge in the design
of broad-band transport networks, especially next-generation optical networks. A common …

Long-reach passive optical networks (LR-PONs) prove to be a suitable candidate for future
broadband access networks. The longer reach of the feeder fiber in a LR-PON enables us to …

One of the visions of fifth-generation fixed networks (F5G) is to provide a guaranteed reliable
experience (GRE). Optical transport networks (OTNs) represent a primary candidate …
