Abstract:The long-reach passive optical network (LR-PON) can potentially deliver future bandwidth intensive services to a significantly higher number of customers at a lower unit cost of bandwidth. Carrying substantially higher traffic over increased distances as compared to conventional PONs, the survivability of these networks is a key feature that must be addressed to ensure end-to-end network reliability. Further, as these networks are optically amplified to extend its coverage, measures to detect and remove hazard… Show more
