Avneet Kaur, Baljeet Kaur, Kuldeepak Singh . Next Generation Optical Access Networks: A Review. International Conference on Advances in Emerging Technology. ICAET2016, 10 (September 2016), 23-27.
Passive Optical Networks (PONs) represent one of the most attractive access network solutions. As the demand for higher bandwidth per user is increasing and accelerating, there is an inevitable need for an evolution from the currently deployed passive optical networks (PONs) to next-generation optical access networks. Apart from meeting the bandwidth requirement, the Next Generation Access Networks must overcome the limitations of existing gigabit-class PONs i. e. low capacity, limited reach, and restricted mobility. Different architectures included in this paper for realizing the NG-OAN are based on different standards introduced by IEEE and ITU-T. A brief summary of future scope has also been included.
