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 …

This paper reviews recent developments of flexible TWDM PON (time-and wavelength-
division multiplexed passive optical network) with pluggable transceivers for pay-as-you …

This paper presents a hybrid Wavelength division multiplexing-free space optics-passive
optical network for bidirectional transmission with 4× 10 Gbps downlink and 2× 10 Gbps …

Optical access technology is now standardized, commercially available, and being deployed
in some countries. In general, technology continues to develop, and optical access is no …

This study reviews key technologies of next generation wavelength division multiplexing
passive optical networks (WDM‐PONs). The authors have studied WDM‐PONs with …

This book focuses on various Passive optical networks (PONs) types, including currently
deployed Ethernet PON (EPON) and Gigabit PON (GPON) as well as next generation WDM …

We investigate optical network unit (ONU) grant scheduling techniques for multichannel
Ethernet passive optical networks (EPONs), such as wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) …

A passive optical network (PON) with low cost and high capacity has been explored and
recommended for supporting the emerged commercial mobile fronthaul, resident, and …

Owing to the high bandwidth provisioning, hybrid wavelength division multiplexing/time
division multiplexing (WDM/TDM) passive optical network (PON) is becoming an attractive …

We explore the problem of bandwidth management for the evolutionary upgrade of WDM
EPONs. We divide the bandwidth management problem into two subproblems:(1) grant …
