Keep ONU costs under control

• Higher TDMA rates seem infeasible

from a cost perspective

• Other multiple access techniques

come into the picture, like OFDMA

Hybrid WDM/TDM PON technologies for NG PON systems

WBS-PON: Wavelenght Broadcast&Select PON Only power splitters

+ : Simple / high flexibility

– : High power loss / Low security

WS-PON: Wavelength Split PON Power splitters and wavelength splitters (e.g. AWG)

+: Low power loss / High security / Little complex

– : No flexibility

WR-PON: Wavelength Routed PON Power splitters and optical switches (e.g. SOA, MEMS)

+: High flexibility / High security

– : High power loss / Complex

WSS-PON: Wavelength Selective Switched PON Power splitters and Wavelength Selective Switches (WSS)

+: Low power loss / Partial flexible / High security

– : Complex

Conclusions

Short/medium term

10G GPON and 1G AON are competitive solutions for offering higher bandwidths at the subscriber sides (cf. 312 Mbps / subscriber)

Longer term

Hybrid WDM/TDM 10G GPON

New functionalities with extra flexibility are made possible

– Load balancing (possibility to offer full bit rate of 10G)

– Energy saving

– Network extensibility and migration

Comparable CAPEX cost as 10G GPON or 1G AON systems

– Cost of transponders (ONU side) is an important issue that must be solved!

Good candidate for a NGOA (NG PON) system

Hybrid AON systems

By combining active switching and WDM PON and AON can offer even other functionalities
