Abstract Cyclic Sleep Mode (CSM) is a widely studied and standard energy conservation
technique for Passive Optical Networks (PONs). The energy savings provided by CSM …

The Passive optical network (PON) has opened new avenues for the provisioning of very
high bandwidths per user through a pure optical fiber based Access Network. However …

Improving the energy efficiency has become an important aspect of designing optical access
networks to minimize their carbon footprints. In this context, interleaved polling with adaptive …

Recent standardization efforts to reduce power consumption in optical access networks
include the use of cyclic sleep modes to more effectively scale energy consumption with …

The sleep mode has been introduced to improve the energy efficiency of passive optical
networks (PONs) with interleaved polling with adaptive cycle time (IPACT) as a medium …

Reducing power consumption in an access network has become an increasingly imperative
design goal, due to the fact that information and telecommunication technologies contribute …

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) …

In passive optical network (PON), in addition to efficient bandwidth management, a dynamic
bandwidth assignment (DBA) scheme can also enhance the energy efficiency performance …

A common approach to reduce energy consumption in communication networks is to allow
network elements to switch to sleep mode. While this technique has been widely utilized in …

Environmental concerns have motivated network designers to further reduce energy
consumption of access networks. This paper focuses on reducing the energy consumption of …
