scheduling of multiple subsystems in metro‐access optical network. To minimise guard time
(Tg) in WDM‐PON and TDM‐PON, the Tg‐transferred mechanism is introduced. To reduce
the number of Tg in OFDM‐PON, the subcarrier allocation algorithm based on the minimum
number of Tg is proposed. To effectively utilise the network bandwidth resources, the
bandwidth allocation based on matrix model is established. To increase the utilisation of …
