A Low Cost Migration Path Towards Next Generation Fiber-To-The-Home Networks

摘要

A highly-scalable access architecture achieving high-user-density and enabling resiliency, centralized light-generation control, remote amplification and colorless ONU with Reflective Semiconductor Optical Amplifier (RSOA) is presented as the bridge between the already deployed Fiber-to-the-Home infrastructures and the advanced optical access networks. A techno-economical comparison of these optical access networks is done, depicting the proposed solution –SARDANA- as the most cost effective migration path towards the Next Generation Passive Optical Networks.
