Besides the long-haul optical networks covering over thousands of kilometers for backbone
transmission, short reach optical networks (SR-ONs) are widely deployed in metro-area for …

So much has been promised by the fifth generation (5G), the revolution of mobile
communications that allows for flexible, speedy, and efficient delivery of unlimited data and …

For the first time, to the best of our knowledge, an energy-efficient framework that optimizes
the number of active wavelengths and uses sleep/doze mode to improve the energy savings …

In this paper, we propose a new Bayesian estimation and prediction-based Just-In-Time
dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithm. The algorithm exploits the sleep and doze …

The rapid deployment of passive optical access networks (PONs) increases the global
energy consumption of networking infrastructure. This paper focuses on the minimization of …

Power consumption in current communication networks including the access networks is
increasing rapidly; energy efficiency is therefore one of the key design considerations in the …

Abstract Putting no-load Optical Network Units (ONUs) into sleep mode has been
recognized as a promising solution to achieve high energy efficiency for Ethernet Passive …

In this paper, a sleep-aware dynamic bandwidth allocation (SDBA) algorithm and the
supporting protocol are proposed for maximizing energy efficiency while satisfying the end …

Energy-efficient passive optical networks (PONs) have gained significant interest since they
are estimated to be the largest energy consumers among the wired access networks for the …

An energy-efficient scheme termed as load adaptive sequence arrangement (LASA) is
introduced. Based on changing the polling sequence of optical network units (ONUs) …
