sTime vs. Spectrum Sharing
• Downstream → point-to-multipoint network– The OLT manages the whole bandwidth
• Upstream → multipoint-to-point network– ONUs transmit only towards the OLT– ONUs cannot detect other ONUs transmissions– Data transmitted by ONUs may collide
Need of a channel separation mechanism to fairly share bandwidth

sPON Evolution
• TDM-PONs– Standarized– Use few wavelengths (typically 2 or 3) – Low cost and mature devices (splitters, lasers, etc.)– Limited power budget
• Maximum distances ≤ 20km, Split ratios ≤ 64– Traffic distribution
• Broadcast scheme in downstream • TDMA techniques in upstream
– Examples: APON/BPON, EPON & GPON• WDM-PONs
– Proposed in literature and/or demonstrated– Introduce WDM techniques and devices (AWG)– Long-reach and bandwidth– Examples: CPON, LARNET, RITENET, Success-DWA…

sOptical Fiber: Attenuation
• Single Mode Fiber (SMF) to achieve large distances– ITU G.652 SMF (STD)
• “water peak” attenuation renders the 1360nm–1480nm spectrum unusable for data transmission
– ITU G652c/d SMF (ZWP)• “zero-water peak”

sVideo Distribution over PONs
• Video can be distributed in several ways
• RF video signal (overlay video)– Uses the same technology employed in cable TV
networks– Requires a dedicated wavelength and high-power– Supports both analog and digital channels
• IP video signal (integrated video)– Uses IP protocol to delivery video services– Can use the same wavelength as data and voice– Video head end can be shared among many
networks/platforms

sRF Video Issue: Brillouin Scattering
• All optical fibers have a physical limitation known as stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS)
• SBS occurs when a high power optical signal over relatively long length (>8km) fiber generates variations in the fiber’s optical properties and scatters optical signals in the reverse direction.
• As power levels increase, so does the effect, resulting in transmitter signal loss and noticeable video signal degradation on a subscriber’s TV
• In general, this results in a power budget of ∼21 dB (@1310nm)

• PONs are typically made of– cheap components at ONUs– more expensive and performant ones at the OLT
• Upstream traffic scheduling is managed in a centralized fashion by the OLT
• TDM-PONs have limited reach/split performance– 10-20km & 16-32 split ratios
• Standards define– Physical Layer– Downstream and Upstream Frame Formats– Upstream Grant Distribution Mechanism
• Ranging Mechanism

• The 3 overhead bytes contain – at least 4 bits of guard time
• to prevent collisions with cells from other ONUs.
– a preamble field for bit synchronization and amplitude recovery.

sUpstream Traffic Scheduling
• Coupled downstream and upstream timing– Both frames have equal length (∼150 µs) – Synchronization is based on downstream frames
• The OLT, by means of the ranging process, aligns all ONUs upstream frames to an unique downstream frame

• One grant = One cell– Data Grant– PLOAM Grant– Divide_Slot Grant– …

• An upstream slot can contain a divided_slot• The divided_slot fits into one upstream slot and contains a
number of minislots coming from a set of ONUs• The OLT assigns one divided_slot grant to this set of ONUs
for sending their minislots• Minislots are used to report status information of the ONUs

sTransmission Containers (T-CONTs)
• Entity used for upstream bandwidth allocation– Responsible for requesting and receiving grants– Associated to a buffer and report its status

ork
sNo Status Reporting (NSR)
• OLT inspects each incoming cell from a specific T-CONT in a predefined time frame– Remembers the ATM connections that are associated with a
specific T-CONT
• For example, the OLT calculates the utilization rate of the currently assigned bandwidth by monitoring the number of effective received cells from specific T-CONTs, and uses this value as the bandwidth request information– The bandwidth allocation reserved for a T-CONT is
INCREASED if the current allocation is largely utilized and DECREASED otherwise
Passiv

sStatus Reporting (SR) 1/3
• SR-ONUs explicitly report to its OLT PON interface• Since a number of ONUs and their T-CONTs may report
queue lengths of T-CONT buffers, it is imperative to balance the amount of information with the upstream bandwidth consumption of these reports
• Generally the OLT will generate divided_slot grants to request a queue length for the specified ONU according to the service requirements
Passiv

sStatus Reporting (SR) 2/3
