Wavelength division multiplexing (WDM)-based Passive Optical Networks (PON) has gained
attention due to the massive growth in bandwidth demand resulting from the increased …

In this work, a wheel-based architecture for 50-gigabit per second next-generation passive
optical network stage 2 (50G-NGPON2) represents a promising solution for beyond fifth …

Future metro-access optical networks will be large-capacity, low-latency, high-reliability,
large-scale, cost-efficient platforms that support fiber–wireless convergence. However …

Indoor networks carry most mobile user activities and industrial communication practices.
Beyond 5G (B5G), ultra-responsive and high-capacity indoor networks will be increasingly …

The introduction of new technologies and applications connected to the Internet, in recent
years, has demonstrated the physical incapacity of current optical backbone networks in the …

In this paper, we explore a low-cost and quality-of-service (QoS)-aware long-reach optical
backhaul for the wireless and fiber-to-the-x (FTTx) networks. We exploit the reserved and …

We investigate the synchronizability of multilayer star-ring networks. Two types of multilayer
networks, including aggregated coupling and divergent coupling, are established based on …

Integrated optical-wireless access network is a cost effective solution for providing high
capacity connectivity and ease of mobility, which are both desirable characteristics in future …

Hybrid wireless optical broadband network utilizes the benefits of optical network bandwidth
and wireless network flexibility to serve all access network requirements However, due to …
