Abstract
This paper proposes an analytical and a numerical models for Next Generation Passive Optical Network (NGPON) by combining Gigabit-PON (GPON) and 10 Gigabit asymmetrical PON (XGPON) technologies. This allows for a larger number of subscribers to be accommodated on the network, up to 256. A capacity optimization procedure based on Genetic Algorithm (GA) techniques is then proposed and analyzed. The uplink and downlink capacities are maximized by optimizing various link parameters, such as the number of Optical Network Units (ONUs), the average optical transmitter power, the receiver sensitivity and the network operating margins. Simulation results shown that, among others, the Distributed-feedback laser (DBF) average power, the Positive-Intrinsic-Negative (PIN) sensitivity and the network margin are the key parameters entrusted to the GA technique in order to maximize the downlink capacity. In contrast, the Fabry Perot (FP) average power, the Avalanche Photodiode (APD) sensitivity and network margin are found to be the most influential parameters optimized by GA to maximize uplink capacity. Significantly, it is demonstrated that the GA technique, when used in optimizing NGPON capacity, enabling 256 subscribers and offering a data rates up to 71.02 Gb/s and 390.56 Gb/s in the upstream and downstream directions, respectively.
期刊介绍:
Innovations in optical fiber technology are revolutionizing world communications. Newly developed fiber amplifiers allow for direct transmission of high-speed signals over transcontinental distances without the need for electronic regeneration. Optical fibers find new applications in data processing. The impact of fiber materials, devices, and systems on communications in the coming decades will create an abundance of primary literature and the need for up-to-date reviews.
Optical Fiber Technology: Materials, Devices, and Systems is a new cutting-edge journal designed to fill a need in this rapidly evolving field for speedy publication of regular length papers. Both theoretical and experimental papers on fiber materials, devices, and system performance evaluation and measurements are eligible, with emphasis on practical applications.
