A Novel OFDMA-PON Architecture With Source-Free ONUs for Next-Generation Optical Access Networks

This letter proposes a novel architecture for next-generation passive optical networks based on the employment of orthogonal frequency-division multiple access. The key new feature of the proposed approach is source-free single-wavelength upstream transmission enabled by carrier suppression, which h...

Zusammenfassung:This letter proposes a novel architecture for next-generation passive optical networks based on the employment of orthogonal frequency-division multiple access. The key new feature of the proposed approach is source-free single-wavelength upstream transmission enabled by carrier suppression, which has been experimentally verified to achieve 10-Gb/s upstream throughput.
