Abstract
PUERTO-LEGUIZAMON, Gustavo Adolfo; REALPE-MANCIPE, Laura Camila and SUAREZ-FAJARDO, Carlos Arturo. Dynamic wired-wireless architecture for WDM stacking access networks. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2014, vol.81, n.188, pp.139-144. ISSN 0012-7353. https://doi.org/10.15446/dyna.v81n188.41312.
This paper presents a dynamic architecture for convergent wired and wireless access networks in Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) based Passive Optical Network (PON) featuring wavelength stacking. Four wavelengths for wired services carrying 10 Gb/s traffic load, one shared extra reconfigurable wavelength and one wavelength common to all Optical Network Units (ONUs) for the transport of wireless services were launched into a 1:64 splitting ratio PON network. In the ONU, a tunable free spaced Fourier optics based filter selects one of the wavelengths conveying wired services and a tunable Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) filters out the wavelength carrying the wireless services. In the uplink direction, subcarrier multiplexing (SCM) was used for the combined transport of the wired and wireless signals to the Central Office (CO).
