Performance analysis of 10-Gigabit-capable Passive Optical Network (XGPON) with splitting ratio of 1:64

Abstract

In this paper explains about performance analysis of 10-Gigabit-capable Passive Optical Network (XGPON) with splitting ratio 1:64. The software tool called Optisystem is used to simulate the network topology. The transmitter uses a laser components with NRZ modulation scheme and the transmitter power is adjusted to maximum power according to the ITU-T standards. The transmission channel, used a fiber optic cable Single Mode Fiber (SMF) G.652C with a length of 20 km, as maximum length of XGPON technology, and the cable attenuation of 0.47 dB/km for wavelengths 1270 nm. The result concluded that based on link budget, rise time and BER analysis, the performance of XGPON technology with 1:64 splitting ratio is suitable to be implemented for provide broadband services.
