Comparison study of next generation FTTH PON architectures

Recent research activities in the area of optical networks technology are focusing on possible extensions of current GPON and EPON since these systems may suffer bandwidth limitations in the future, and they do not make use of the full optical bandwidth. In this project two network architectures wer...
