With the increasing concern over the energy expenditure due to rapid ICT expansion and
growth of Internet traffic volume, there is a growing trend towards developing energy-efficient …

Passive Optical Networks (PONs) are widely adopted as the last-mile technology due to the
large bandwidth capacity it provides to end users. In addition, PON is viewed as a green …

The majority of the traffic over the Internet is TCP based, which is very sensitive to packet
loss and delay. Existing research efforts in TDM-Passive Optical Networks (TDM-PONs) …

In order to minimize energy consumption in Time Division Multiplexing-Passive Optical
Network (TDM-PON), IEEE and ITU-T have mandated sleep mode mechanism for Optical …

Recent IEEE and ITU-T standards for time division multiplexing-passive optical networks
(TDM-PONs) with sleep mode recommend that the optical line terminal (OLT) in a TDM-PON …

We propose and demonstrate an efficient power‐saving optical network unit (ONU) based
on upstream traffic monitoring for 10‐Gb/s wavelength division multiplexed passive optical …

Even if Passive Optical Networks (PONs) have proven to be more energy-efficient that other
access solutions, energy consumption minimization is becoming an important research …

This article proposes a time-division multiplexing passive optical network (TDM-PON)
architecture in which optical network units (ONUs) enter active mode only when the optical …

The main energy consumption in computer networks is the access networks. The passive
optical network (PON) has the least energy consumption among access network …

The energy efficiency and delay performance of PON are two inversely related phenomena.
Higher sleep time of the Optical Network Units (ONUs) results in higher upstream (US) …
