A Survivable and Flexible WDM Access Network by Alternate FSO- and Fiber-Paths for Fault Protection

Abstract: In the work, we study and express a new wavelength-division-multiplexing passive optical network (WDM-PON) architecture with fiber fault protection. The designed optical network unit (ONU) module and periodic spectrum of 2N array waveguide grating (AWG) are applied to produce the self-protected mechanism. Here, we employ the free space optical communication (FSO)-and fiber-based connection between two adjacent ONUs to achieve signal relink. Moreover, the corresponding signal performances of downstream and ups… Show more

“…Fog causes attenuation up to hundreds of decibels per kilometer. In the presence of fog FSO channel typically used for short range communication, therefore FSO has its future in wireless 5G/6G networks having cell sizes less than a kilometer [13], [14]. Charge coupled device (CCD) camera and laser diode at 0.55 µm can be used for the FSO link when the visibility reduces below 50m due to fog [15].…”

“…To provide and maintain enough data capacity of >1. 25 Gbit/s to each subscriber and also deliver data information security, the WDM-PON system with a point-to-point (PtP) link can be implemented completely [17]. Although WDM-PON requires multiple WDM laser light sources and WDM MUX, it will increase the deployment and operating costs.…”

“…Moreover, as the fiber transmission length increases, the RB noise interference effect will also become greater. Thus, to prevent the RB noise in WDM-PON, researchers have studied the use of the electrical filtering method, Mach-Zehnder delay interferometer structure, phase-shift keying (DPSK) modulation skill, and optical carrier-suppressed subcarrier-modulation (OCS-SCM) technique [24][25][26][27].…”

“…For highly efficient bandwidth utilization, extended wavelength allocation methods must be also considered in current and near future hybrid Time-and Wavelength Division Multiplexing-based Passive Optical Network (TWDM-PON) [9][10][11][12][13]. Among other things, Next-Generation Passive Optical Networks (NG-PON) [14][15][16][17] provide cost-efficient traffic protection schemes [18][19][20][21][22], whereas fault management is important for uninterrupted internet access services [23][24][25]. Therefore, NG-PON networks must support the end-to-end protection option for use cases if specified reliability requirements based on user profiles are expected.…”
