Performance analysis of NGPON using hybrid GPON-XGPON based robust long-haul passive optical communication network

Abstract

Abstract For high data rates and extended reach capabilities, communications networks need to be enhanced by employing passive optical networks (PONs). NG-PON plays a key role in achieving the modern demands. This paper proposed novel hybrid G-PON and XG-PON based robust long-haul Passive Optical Communication Network. In this proposed network hybrid semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) and EDFA are used to enhance the system performance for downstream (D.S.) and upstream (U.S) signals transmission. This paper analyses a hybrid G-PON and XG-PON bi-directional optical fiber link up to length of 100-km with a 128 (1:64 and 1:64) way-splitter to increase the coverage area and to enhance the quality of transmitted data. The qualitative analysis of the proposed network shows an improved performance in terms of transmission distance, quality factor and eye-diagrams.
