Neste trabalho propomos e analisamos algoritmos de alocação dinâmica de banda para rede óptica passiva (PON) de acesso padrão GPON (Gigabit PON). Estes algoritmos utilizam dados oriundos de SLA (service level agreement) para gerenciar a alocação de banda e classificar em 4 contêineres de tráfego (T-CONT) o tráfego gerado em 16 ONUs (optical network unit). Na transmissão upstream é utilizada a técnica de multiplexação por divisão de tempo (TDM) para gerenciar o acesso ao meio, evitando colisões. O primeiro algoritmo proposto aloca banda garantida para as ONUs e distribui a banda não utilizada de acordo com critério baseado em três SLAs. A taxa de bit upstream é 1,25 Gbps e o desempenho do algoritmo é analisado com base na variação do atraso de pacotes em função do tráfego gerado nas ONUs. O segundo algoritmo proposto utiliza ponderação de tráfego. Neste, analisamos o comportamento dos atrasos e a quantidade de banda solicitada e atendida por ONU quando as bandas garantida e extra são alteradas. Por fim, acrescentamos em nossa implementação um intervalo para o processamento do algoritmo de alocação dinâmica de banda (DBA) e resposta do hardware relacionado ao ciclo de interrogação. Então, analisamos o atraso de pacotes quando variamos o intervalo de processamento do DBA. Ao final, propomos uma solução preliminar para minimizar estes atrasos. Os resultados obtidos por meio de simulação computacional mostram a versatilidade dos algoritmos. / In this work we propose and analyze the performance of dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithms for optical passive networks (PON) in GPON standard (Gigabit PON). These algorithms use data from SLA (service level agreement) to manage bandwidth allocation and classify in 4 traffic containers (T-CONT) the traffic generated by 16 ONUs (optical network unit). In the upstream transmission the time division multiplexing (TDM) technique is used to manage the medium access, avoiding collisions. The first proposed algorithm allocates guaranteed bandwidth for the ONUs and distributes the bandwidth not used according to the criteria based on three SLAs. The upstream bit rate is 1.25 Gbps and the algorithm performance is analyzed based on the packets delay variation versus the traffic generated by ONUs. The second proposed algorithm uses weighted traffic. In this, we analyze the delay performance and the required bandwidth for each ONU and how much it is served when the guaranteed and extra bandwidth are changed. Finally, we added in our implementation an interval for the processing of the dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithm (DBA) and response of the hardware related to the interrogation cycle. In the end, we propose a preliminary solution to minimize these delays. The results obtained by means of computational simulation show the versatility of the algorithms.

The idea of a Media Frame network (MFN) was proposed very recently for solving the explosively growing demand for end-to-end large file transfers. This networking method combines the advantage of high transmission speed from optical networks and flexibility and fast header parsing from electronic networks. The MFN is based on very large data units or media frames (MF) compared to IP packets. Due to the logical continuity, transporting data in a media frame network largely reduces the power consumption in the intermediate nodes and routers. Currently the backbone of media frame network has been studied. The remaining challenge is to devise a system solving the problem of transporting MFs through access networks (i.e., the last mile) connecting customers to the backbone networks. To our knowledge, no other research activity regarding this challenge has been reported. If this challenge is overcome and if the overall concept is accepted, the MFN could be a very important step in the evolution of the Internet. This thesis focuses mainly on the access network. For the first time, a solution is proposed to establish the ability to transport media frames over a standard PON (e.g. Passive Optical Network) architecture. Because of the unique properties of the media frame network, the physical layer model and transport protocols must be rebuilt. Referring to the ITU-T G.987 recommendations, the physical layer is built based on the XGPON specification. In this thesis, the initialization protocols, bandwidth allocation plan, OLT-ONU (OLT: Optical Line Terminal, e.g. central office. ONU: Optical Network Unit, e.g. customer side box) negotiation protocols are designed. Different schemes for each protocol are proposed, with simulation support based on Omnet++. For the transmission of a 7GB file on average, different transparency degrees under different traffic conditions are compared, and the tradeoffs among essential factors are investigated. / Graduate

This thesis examines parameters of FTTx networks and possibilities for increases in limit values of some selected parameters. The first and second chapters describe the necessary theory for understanding the outcomes presented in the rest part of the work. In the practical part of this thesis, analysis of the condition of the optical fibers in the Czech Republic is provided. Based on the results, the impact of the polarization mode dispersion on optical access networks was assessed. The next part of this thesis is focused on the active optical networks design, depending on the cost of implementation and operating costs. The main limiting parameters of the current passive optical networks are bandwidth and insertion loss of the optical distribution network. To increase the bandwidth a system based on optical time-division multiplexing with a bandwidth of 1.28 Tbit/s has been designed and created. By using polarization division multiplexing technique the system is also more tolerant to dispersions. In the last part of this thesis, a remote amplification system was verified by measurement and simulation. Based on the obtained results, a NG-PON2 network with a functional remote amplification system with a gain of more than 10 dB has been designed in the OptiSystem software.

<p>Reflective semiconductor optical amplifiers (RSOA) are widely used in wavelength-division-multiplexed passive optical networks (WDM-PON). RSOAs in optical network units (ONUs) are operated in the gain saturation region so that the amplitude squeezing effect can be used to erase the information on downstream signals, however, the upstream signals go through the same RSOA need to be amplified.</p> <p>In order to use one RSOA to satisfy the need of erasing the information on downstream signal by using amplitude squeezing effect and amplifying the upstream signal at the same time, an asymmetric RSOA design is proposed and demonstrated in this thesis. The ridge width becomes narrower along the traveling direction of the downstream signal so that the downstream signal can be amplified in the saturation region of the RSOA. At the same time, the ridge width increases in the traveling direction of the upstream signal, so that the modulated upstream signal can be amplified by the asymmetric RSOA. In this thesis, I mainly focus on the designing of the structure of the RSOA to enlarge the gain difference between upstream and downstream gain. Difference between wide end and narrow end effective indices, cavity length, the way that effective index changes from the wide end to the narrow end and bias current are factors that can affect the gain difference. How the device performance is affected by the factors were analyzed. An optimized structure of asymmetric RSOA is then proposed according to the effects of the factors. The performance of the asymmetric RSOA, including gain dynamic performance, saturation output power, and upstream output power, is compared with symmetric RSOA. The asymmetric RSOA shows better performance in erasing the downstream signal information as well as amplifying upstream signal.</p> / Master of Applied Science (MASc)
