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 …

In time and wavelength division multiplexed (TWDM) passive optical networks (PONs),
energy savings at the optical line termination (OLT) are achievable by dynamically allocating …

One of the main challenges of Passive Optical Networks (PONs) is the resource (bandwidth
and wavelength) management. Since it has been shown that access networks consume a …

Time and wavelength division multiplexed passive optical network (TWDM-PON) standards
dramatically increase the performance of PON systems and address ever-increasing …

Even if Passive Optical Networks (PONs) have proven to be more energy-efficient that other
