Abstract:

Rapid changes in population distribution across Canada and the introduction of new telecommunication services to the consumer market have resulted in a number of significant challenges for existing network infrastructure. Fast growing populations in metropolitan regions require high density access networks to meet the growing need for bandwidth that results. Furthermore, new services such as high definition TV, online gaming and real-time video teleconferencing are becoming increasingly popular among consumers. These services require higher bandwidth to be available to end users. Changes in the Canadian economy will soon lead to a transition in Canadian industry from manufacturing to services and exploration of natural resources. This will create opportunities for new industrial development and growth in northern regions. Expanding industrialization towards northern Canada will require deployment of reliable telecommunication infrastructure. The combination of open source software, Linux operating system and Personal Computer (PC) based hardware platform is proposed to become the foundation for low cost and flexible technology that will provide transition towards all-optical infrastructures. An innovative prototype of a low-cost optical gigabit Ethernet switch is presented and its benchmark results are discussed. Scalability of the switch and its future applications in optical networks are studied. A prototype of a software based data encapsulation system was designed and implemented in a PC based platform, and its performance was evaluated using real data that was captured in commercial LAN. Semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOA) are studied as a building block in next generation switching devices for all-optical access networks. A prototype of an SOA-based low-cost optical switching device with implemented FPGA based controlling mechanism is presented and its characteristics are discussed. SOA is also studied as an energy efficient optical amplifier that can be deployed in end user facilities. The presented results provide proof of concept of a low cost flexible platform that can be used to design and build network devices to facilitate the transition of existing telecommunication networks towards next generation optical access infrastructure.

Abstract:

Esta investigación está conducida a la resolución del problema de encontrar soluciones rentables para el despliegue de redes de fibra hasta el hogar (Fibre to the Home - FTTH). En una red de FTTH, el equipo transmisor-receptor de usuario así como el despliegue de la fibra en la llamada 'última milla' son las barreras principales.
Una topología que consiste en hacer llegar una única fibra para dirigirse a cada usuario reduce la cantidad de fibra requerida. Por otro lado, los componentes ópticos pasivos alivian los requisitos de mantenimiento de la red de acceso. El efecto del backscattering de Rayleigh se ha identificado como la interferencia más crítica de este tipo de transmisión, el efecto sobre el funcionamiento del sistema y las investigaciones de posibles soluciones al mencionado problema son centro de estudio de esta tesis. Los experimentos realizados, revelan que, a pesar de la interferencia causada por del effecto Rayleigh no se puede eliminar totalmente, hay diferentes técnicas capaces de atenuar dicho efecto.
El uso de los amplificadores ópticos semiconductores para implementar las funciones de transmisión-recepción agrega simplicidad al diseño de red en términos de transparencia de la longitud de onda y gracias a las capacidades de la amplificación de esta familia de dispositivos.
Los resultados experimentales presentaron en este trabajo demuestran con éxito la modulación y la detección a 1Gbit/s y 2.5Gbit/s con los dispositivos basados en semiconductores, en enlaces de hasta 30km e incluso de hasta 50km de longitud. Nuevos prototipos son potencialmente capaces de transmitir a 10Gbit/s.
Estructuras reflectoras basadas en amplificadores ópticos semiconductores reflectores son los candidatos mas adecuados.
Éstos, realizan funciones de transmisión eficientemente y proporcionan la amplificación adecuada. Sin embargo, es necesario el diseño de nuevos diseños capaces de transmitir datos a una velocidad mayor. Una estrategia de comunicación bidireccional mediante una única fibra es la arquitectura más interesante los términos de reducción de costes por usuario (CAPEX). Por estos motivos, la ONU se convierte en un elemento clave en redes de acceso y un área muy interesante de investigación.
Para una evolución exitosa de FTTH el diseño de la unidad de red debe ser simple, robusto, flexible y bajo coste para el cliente final.
La traducción de los requisitos anteriormente mencionados en especificaciones técnicas establece las pautas siguientes para el diseño del FTTH ONU
- Una única fibra por cada usuario para reducir tamaño de la red de acceso
- Independencia de la longitud de onda para permitir una operación transparente en redes WDM
- Que no haya fuente de luz activa en las dependencias de usuario para prevenir el mantenimiento en el lado del usuario
- Con amplificación y así poder aumentar el número de usuarios y alcanzar mayores distancias

De esta manera, el objetivo principal de esta tesis es la investigación de unidades ópticas de red reflectoras, especialmente las basadas en amplificadores ópticos de semiconductor, así como su funcionamiento en redes de FTTH, basadas en tecnología de acceso WDM-PON. Esto implica fundamentalmente
- Identificar arquitecturas y dispositivos propuestos por medio de la investigación del trabajo publicado relacionado y destacar limitaciones y requisitos de los sistemas actuales
- evaluar las diversos alternativas para la ONU y para proponer soluciones mejoradas, demostradas con simulaciones y experimentos
- investigar limitaciones posibles de los sistemas transmisión bidireccionales y desarrollar soluciones para la mejora de la transmisión
- desarrollar descripciones analíticas de las señales implicadas en la transmisión
This research was conducted to deal with the problem of finding cost-effective solutions for Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH) network deployment. In the FTTH network, the transceiver at the user premises and the deployment of fibre at the last mile are the major barriers.
A single-fibre topology to address each user reduces the amount of fibre required; passive optical components alleviate maintenance requirements in the access network.
The Rayleigh backscattering effect is identified as the most critical crosstalk in such transmission, the effect on the system performance and the investigations of possible solutions are presented in this thesis. The studies reveal that despite the Rayleigh backscattering crosstalk can not be totally eliminated, several techniques can mitigate the effect.
The use of the semiconductor optical amplifiers to feature transceiver tasks at the user premises adds simplicity to the network design in terms of wavelength transparency and amplification capabilities. We propose implementations with semiconductor amplifiers and test modulation and detection potentials inside the optical network.
The experimental results successfully demonstrate modulation and detection at 1Gbit/s and 2.5Gbit/s with semiconductor-based devices, in links of 30km and even though of 50km length; bit rate of 10Gbit/s is feasible with novel prototypes as well.
Reflective structures based on reflective semiconductor optical amplifiers are potential candidates, as they perform transmission functions efficiently and provide adequate amplification however, it is necessary the design of further structures capable of transmitting at a higher bit rates.

Abstract:

The objective of the proposed research is to develop multiwavelength lasers as cost-efficient sources for broadband optical access networks. Todays telecommunications networks have widely adopted optical fiber as the backbone transmission medium. Optical fiber systems are promising candidates for the broadband access networks to offer high-speed and future-proof services. To harness the available bandwidth in fiber and to meet the ever-growing bandwidth demand, wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) techniques have been investigated. There have been intense research activities for the creation of new low-cost laser sources for such emerging applications. In this context, multiwavelength fiber ring lasers have been significantly investigated as they present many advantages, including simple structure, low-cost, and selectable multiwavelength operation. We propose a new laser system architecture that emits alternate multiwavelength picosecond pulses operating at room temperature. Optical signal generation is based on a single active component, an unbalanced Mach-Zehnder interferometer, inserted in an actively mode-locked erbium-doped fiber ring laser to provide both intensity modulation and wavelength-selective filtering. Time and frequency controls of the light emission are reached by inserting an additional modulator and a periodic filter in the cavity. This approach focuses on the application of multiwavelength lasers as sources for WDM passive optical networks.

Abstract:

Dans ce travail de thèse, un aperçu général sur les systèmes PON est présenté et sont étudiés les mécanismes et classification PON existants. Après, nous introduisons notre première contribution qui est un algorithme d'allocation dynamique de bande passante pour EPON. Cet algorithme proposé est désigné comme «hcDBA». Par la suite, une amélioration de l'algorithme de hcDBA avec mécanisme de prédiction précoce est présentée. Notre simulation montre bien que notre algorithme hcDBA est performant comparé aux mécanismes existants en termes de taux de perte de paquets et de délai d’accès. Dans notre seconde contribution, nous sommes intéressés au problème de consommation d’énergie qui est un sujet d’actualité dans les réseaux de télécommunication. Les études montrent aujourd’hui que les réseaux d'accès constituent une partie remarquable de la consommation totale d'énergie dans les réseaux de télécommunication. Les organisations ITU-T et IEEE ont publié la recommandation pour la conversation de l'énergie pour les réseaux PONs. Bien que, la consommation totale d'énergie des nœuds ONU est plus importantes que d'autres équipements dans le réseau d'accès fixe, les normes et la plupart des travaux de recherches ont porté sur les économies d'énergie du côté de ONU. Dans cette thèse, nous sommes concentrés sur une méthode d'efficacité énergétique basée sur la conservation de l'énergie du côté de l’OLT. La méthode proposée permet d’économiser de l'énergie en déplaçant dynamiquement des cartes d’OLT en mode de sommeil profond en fonction des charges de trafic entrant et sortant
In this thesis, general overview about PON systems is presented and existing PON mechanisms and classification are investigated. After, a novel dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithm for EPON is introduced. This proposed algorithm is named as “Half Cycling Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation-hcDBA” by the inspiration of its half cycling processing mode. Later, an improvement of hcDBA algorithm with early prediction mechanism is presented. As a result statement of the study, hcDBA algorithm performs better than existing mechanism in terms of packet loss ratio and access delays. Beside, simulation traffic behavior of EPON’s upstream channel has been investigated in order to support the decision of selecting suitable traffic generator in further studies. Energy conversation is one of the hot topics in telecommunication networks. Access networks constitute remarkable portion of the total energy consumption in telecommunication networks. ITU-T and IEEE organizations published recommendation for energy conversation in PONs. While, total energy consumption of ONUs is more than other equipment in fix access network the standards and most of the researches focused on saving energy at ONU side. In this thesis I focused on an energy efficiency method based on energy conversation on OLT side. The proposed method save energy by dynamically moving OLT cards to deep sleep mode according to the incoming and outgoing traffic loads

Abstract:

Doutoramento em Engenharia Eletrotécnica - Telecomunicações
The work presented herein, studies Next Generation Optical Access Networks (NG-OAN) economically (e.g. energy consumption) and technologically (e.g. rate, reach and dedicated/shared bandwidth). The work is divided into four main topics: energy efficiency in optical access architectures, novel spectrally efficient Long-Reach Passive Optical Networks (LR-PON), crosstalk impacts in heterogeneous and homogenous access networks and hybrid optical wireless transmissions. We investigate the impact of user profiles, optical distribution network topologies and equipment characteristics on resource sharing and power consumption in LR-PON. To have a clear vision on the energy consumption evolution of each part of NG-OAN, a model is proposed to evaluate the energy efficiency of optical access technologies. A spectrally efficient bidirectional Ultra-Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (UDWDM) PON architecture is developed using Nyquist shaped 16-ary quadrature amplitude modulation, offering up to 10 Gb/s service capabilities per user or wavelength. Performance of this system in terms of receiver sensitivity and nonlinear tolerance under different network transmission capacity conditions are experimentally optimized. In bi-directional transmis-sion, using frequency up/down-shifting of Nyquist pulse shaped signal from optical carrier, a full bandwidth allocation and easy maintenance of UDWDM networks as well as reduction of Rayleigh back-scattering are achieved. Moreover, self-homodyne detection is used to relax the laser linewidth requirement and digital signal processing complexity at the optical network unit. Simplified numerical model to estimate the impact of Raman crosstalk of multi-system next generation PONs in video overlay is proposed. Coexistence of considered G.98X ITU-T series and coherent multi-wavelength systems is considered and assessed. Additionally, the performances of bidirectional hybrid optical wireless coherent PONs over different optical distribution network power budgets and hybrid splitting ratios are evaluated.
O trabalho aqui apresentado estuda redes óticas de acesso de próxima geração (NG-OAN) nas vertentes económica (consumo de energia) e tecnológica (taxa, alcance e largura de banda dedicada/partilhada). O trabalho está dividido em quatro grandes temas de investigação: a eficiência energética em arquiteturas de acesso ótico, as redes óticas passivas de longo alcance (LR-PON) com nova eficiência espetral, o impacto da diafonia em redes de acesso heterogéneas e homogéneas e as transmissões ópticas híbridas com tecnologias sem fio. Investiga-se o impacto dos perfis dos utilizadores, as tipologias da rede de distribuição ótica, as características do equipamento de partilha de recursos e o consumo de energia em LR-PON. Para se ter uma visão clara sobre o consumo de energia de cada parte das NG-OAN, é proposto um modelo para avaliar a eficiência energética das tecnologias de acesso óticas. Desenvolve-se uma arquitetura PON bi-direcional com elevada eficiência espetral, recorrendo a multiplexagem por divisão de comprimento de onda ultra-densa (UDWDM), modulação de amplitude em quadratura com formato de impulso de Nyquist, oferecendo até 10 Gb/s por utilizador/comprimento de onda. O desempenho deste sistema em termos de sensibilidade do recetor e da tolerância à resposta não linear do canal de comunicação, sob diferentes condições de transmissão, é avaliado experimentalm-ente. Em transmissão bi-direcional, utilizando desvio de frequência (cima/baixo) do impulso com formato de Nyquist relativo à portadora ótica conseguiu-se uma alocação de largura de banda completa e uma manutenção mais simplificada de redes UDWDM, bem como a redução do espalhamento de Rayleigh. Além disso, a deteção auto-homodina é usada para relaxar o requisito de largura de linha do laser e a complexidade do processamento digital de sinal nas unidades da rede ótica. Propõe-se um modelo numérico simplificado para estimar o impacto da diafonia de Raman em sistemas PON de próxima geração, com sobreposição do sinal de vídeo. É analisada a coexistência da série G.98X ITU-T e são considerados e avaliados sistemas coerentes multi-comprimento de onda. Adicionalmente avaliam-se os desempenhos de PONs bi-direcionais híbridas, considerando tecnologia coerente e propagação por espaço livre, para diferentes balanços de potência e taxas de repartição na rede ótica de distribuição.

Abstract:

The ever increasing demands of Internet users caused by the introduction of new high bandwidth applications and online services as well as the growing number of users and devices connected to the Internet, bring many challenges for the operators, especially in the last mile section of the network. Next generation access architectures are expected to offer high sustainable bandwidth per user. They also need to support a much larger service areas to decrease number of current central offices and hence potentially save the network expenditures in the future. Obviously, it requires high capacity and low loss transmission and optical fiber technology is the only future proof candidates for broadband access. Although this technology has already been widely deployed in the core networks, it is hard to use the same expensive devices made for core segment to solve the last mile bottlenecks, due to the low number of users sharing the network resources (and deployment cost). Therefore, the next generation optical access (NGOA) networks need to be designed with consideration of cost efficiency in the first place. Network reliability is also turning to be an important aspect for the NGOA networks as a consequence of long reach, high client count and new services requiring uninterrupted access. Consequently, new architectures not only need to be cost efficient but also they should fulfill the increasing reliability requirements. Although several NGOA alternatives have been proposed in the literatures, there is not yet an agreement on a single architecture. As described earlier, network expenditure and reliability performance are the two main factors to be considered. Therefore, this thesis concentrates on finding a suitable alternative for future broadband access by evaluating the reliability performance and total cost of ownership for several NGOA candidates. In particular, in this thesis we analyze the tradeoff between the cost needed to deploy backup resources and the reliability performance improvement obtained by the provided survivability mechanism. First, we identified the suitable NGOA candidates by comparing two main groups of optical access networks, namely passive optical networks (PONs) and active optical networks (AONs), in terms of cost, reliability performance and power consumption. The initial results have shown that wavelength division multiplexing PON (WDM PON) is the most promising alternative for the NGOA networks because of its high potential capacity, low cost and power consumption. So we continued our studies by investigating two WDM-based PON architectures regarding their cost and reliability performance. The study has also included a proposed fiber layout compatible with these two candidates aiming to minimize the required investment needed to offer protection. Our primary results confirmed that hybrid PON (HPON) is the best alternative for the NGOA networks. Therefore we further analyzed this candidate considering several variants of HPON. The most important components and sections of the HPON, which need to be protected to decrease the impact of each failure in the network have been identified. Based on these outcomes, two resilience architectures protecting the shared part of the HPON were proposed and their reliability performance parameters as well as cost of protection were evaluated. According to the results, using our proposed protection schemes a considerable improvement in reliability performance of the HPON variants can be provided at minor extra investment. We also introduced a cost efficient HPON architecture with different levels of protection for users with various reliability requirements, i.e. the protection of shared parts of the access network for all the connected users and end-to-end resilience scheme for some selected ones (e.g., business users). To gain an overall view on the cost efficiency of the proposed architecture, we evaluated the investment required for deploying these schemes considering several network upgrading paths towards a protected network. Moreover, a sensitivity analysis investigating the influence of network deployments time and the density of the users with higher availability requirements was presented. In summary, we have shown that HPON is able to fulfill the main NGOA requirements such as high bandwidth per-user, large coverage and client count. The work carried out in the thesis has proved that HPON can also offer high reliability performance while keeping the network expenditures at an acceptable level. Moreover, low power consumption and high flexibility in resource allocation of this architecture, makes it a winning candidate for the NGOA networks. Therefore, HPON is a promising architecture to be deployed as NGOA network in the near future considering the fact that components are soon to be available in the market.

Abstract:

The wavelength-division-multiplexed passive optical network (WDM-PON) offers many advantages such as large bandwidth per user, easy management, high network security and low insertion loss enabling long-reach and/or high split-ratio. However, with the rapid development and growing interest for deployment of WDM-PON, the PON systems are becoming increasingly vulnerable to various failures. Therefore, network supervision becomes extremely important to guarantee an appropriate level of network reliability performance. The aim of PON supervision is to provide automated test and diagnostic capability without compromising the available bandwidth for services. An essential function is to detect any kind of deterioration in the network that can cause suspended services and to remotely localize these faults in order to avoid the high cost arising from troubleshooting. In this thesis, we evaluate several existing WDM PON supervision methods, based on which two simple and cost-effective new solutions are proposed to localize fiber failures in WDM PON systems. In the first solution, a conventional optical time domain reflectometry (OTDR) and a switch unit are employed, while in the second method, a novel architecture based on N×N arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) is proposed. Both methods are able to localize failures in feeder fiber and drop fibers without e.g. using expensive tunable OTDRs. A patent has been filed based on the second solution. The first proposed method is validated by simulations using VPI Transmission Maker. According to the results, this supervision method is able to give accurate measurement of many different types of failures that may happen in a fiber link. Furthermore, VPI is examined in terms of its future applicability in modeling complete PON supervision methods based on OTDR.

Abstract:

Access networks have been going through many reformations to make them adapt to arising traffic trends and become better suited for many new demanding applications. To that end, incorporating fog and edge computing has become a necessity for supporting many emerging applications as well as alleviating network congestions. At the same time, energy-efficiency has become a strong imperative for access networks to reduce both their operating costs and carbon footprint. In this dissertation, we address these two challenges in long-reach optical access networks. We first study the integration of fog and edge computing with optical access networks, which is believed to form a highly capable access network by combining the huge fiber capacity with closer-to-the-edge computing and storage resources. In our study, we examine the offloading performance under different cloudlet placements when the underlying bandwidth allocation is either centralized or decentralized. We combine between analytical modeling and simulation results in order to identify the different factors that affect the offloading performance within each paradigm. To address the energy efficiency requirement, we introduce novel enhancements and modifications to both allocation paradigms that aim to enhance their network performance while conserving energy. We consider this work to be one of the first to explore the integration of fog and edge computing with optical access networks from both bandwidth allocation and energy efficiency perspectives in order to identify which allocation paradigm would be able to meet the requirements of next-generation access networks.

Abstract:

During the last three decades, the significant increase in electricity demand, and its consequences, has appeared as a serious concern for the utility companies, but no major changes have been applied to the conventional power grid infrastructure. Recently, researchers have identified efficient control and power distribution mechanisms as the immediate challenges for conventional power grids. The next step for conventional power grid towards the Smart Grid is to provide energy efficiency management along with higher reliability via smart services, in which the application of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is inevitable. ICT introduces powerful tools to comply with the smart grid requirements. Among various ICT properties, the telecommunication network plays a key role for providing a secure infrastructure. The two-way digital communication system provides an interaction between energy suppliers and consumers for managing, controlling and optimizing energy distribution. We can also define the smart grid as a two-way flow of energy and control information, where the electricity consumers can generate energy using green energy resources. The main objective of this thesis is to select an effective data communication infrastructure to support the smart grid services by considering a hybrid wireless and optical communication technologies. Radio-over-Fibre (RoF) networks are considered as a potential solution to provide a fast, reliable and efficient network backbone with the optical access network integration and the flexibility and mobility of the wireless network. Therefore, we adopt the integration of RoF to Passive Optical Network (PON) as a broadband access network to transmit smart grid data along with the Fiber to the Home/Building/Curb (FTTx) traffic through the shared fibre, and utilizing Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM). Finally, we present and analyze the simulation results for the aforementioned infrastructure based on our enhanced ROF-PON integration model.

Abstract:

Due to the tremendous growth of traffic volume caused by both exponential increase of number of Internet users and continual emergence of new bandwidth demanding applications, high capacity networks are required in order to satisfactorily handle the extremely large amount of traffic. Hence, optical fiber communication is the key technology for the network infrastructure. This thesis addresses design, analysis and simulation of access and core networks targeting important research problems, which need to be tackled for the effective realization of next generation optical networks. Among different fiber access architectures, passive optical network (PON) is considered as the most promising alternative for the last mile connection due to its relatively low cost and resource efficiency. The inherent bursty nature of the user generated traffic results in dynamically changing bandwidth demand on per subscriber basis. In addition, access networks are required to support differentiated quality of service and accommodate multiple service providers. To address these problems we proposed three novel scheduling algorithms to efficiently realize dynamic bandwidth allocation in PON, along with guaranteeing both the priority and fairness of the differentiated services among multiple users and/or service providers. Meanwhile, because of the increasing significance of reliable access to network services, an efficient fault management mechanism needs to be provided in PON. In addition, access networks are very cost sensitive and the cost of protection should be kept as low as possible. Therefore, we proposed three novel cost-effective protection architectures keeping in mind that reliability requirement in access networks should be satisfied at the minimal cost. Regarding the optical core networks, replacing electronic routers with all-optical switching nodes can offer significant advantages in realizing high capacity networks. Because of the technological limitations for realizing all-optical nodes, the focus is put on the ingenious architecture design. Therefore, we contributed on novel switching node architectures for optical circuit and packet switching networks. Furthermore, we addressed different aspects of routing and wavelength assignment (RWA) problem, which is an important and hard task to be solved in wavelength routed networks. First, we proposed an approach based on the information summary protocol to reduce the large amount of control overhead needed for dissemination of the link state information in the case of adaptive routing. In addition, transparency in optical networks may cause vulnerability to physical layer attacks. To target this critical security related issue, we proposed an RWA solution to minimize the possible reachability of a jamming attack. Finally, in order to evaluate our ideas we developed two tailor-made simulators based on discrete event driven system for the detailed studies of PON and switched optical networks. Moreover, the proposed tabu search heuristic for our RWA solution was implemented in C++.

Abstract:

Mestrado em Engenharia Electrónica e Telecomunicações
A Internet está a ter um papel cada vez mais activo no quotidiano actual. As exigências de tráfego estão a aumentar consideravelmente mais do que a receita disponivel, sendo que se torna visível a extrema necessidade por servicos de banda larga. Recentemente, os operadores de telecomunicações tem demonstrado um vasto interesse em providenciar serviços a clientes residenciais, usando Redes Ópticas Passivas (PON). Este forte investimento levou ao desenvolvimento de vários standards, estando actualmente a ser desenvolvida a nova geracão da rede. O novo objectivo é bastante claro – NGPON2 deve superar as tecnologias anterioes relativamente à compatibilidade ODN, capacidade, largura de banda e custo-eficiência. Após vários estudos, em Abril de 2012, FSAN ((Full Service Access Network) definiu TWDM (Time- Wavelength Division Multiplexing) como sendo a solução mais atractiva para preencher os requisitos necessários. Em Março de 2013, foi aprovada a norma ITU-T G.989.1 endereçando novos planos de comprimentos de onda, de acordo com as exigências dos operadores. O requisito mais importante para esta nova rede de acesso centra-se em garantir uma possível co-existência com as redes PON já desenvolvidas. Para esse efeito, torna-se essencial uma nova alocação de espectro e posteriores estudos de interferência, garantindo, assim, a preservação de todos os sistemas. No âmbito do referido acima, o presente documento expôe inicialmente um estudo acerca da nova tecnologia TWDM, incluindo caracteristicas gerais e suas limitações. Foram obtidos, para tal, resultados experimentais e simulados. Posteriormente, é efectuado um estudo da tecnologia TWDM em co-existência com redes PONs anteriores e, também, com sinais modulados com diferente formatos. Estes cenários tem o propósito de observar os efeitos gerados no seu desempenho. Alguns parâmetros, como espaçamento entre canais, potência de transmissão e taxas de transmissão de bits foram tidos em consideração. O objectivo é criar uma única rede heterogénea onde vários formatos de alta transmissão de dados co-existem, por forma a optimizar e definir a máxima ocupação da rede de acesso de nova geração.
The Internet is increasingly becoming part of everyday life. Once the traffic demands are growing much more rapidly than the available revenue, it is visible the gradual increase of the need for broadband services. In recent years, telecom operators have shown a great interest in providing various services to residential customers, using the Passive Optical Network (PON) topology. This strong investment has led to several standards in order to achieve the potential subscribers and nowadays is being developed the next generation. The future goal is clear - NGPON2 must overcome previous technologies in ODN compatibility, capacity, bandwidth and cost-efficiency. After several studies, in April 2012, FSAN (Full Service Access Network) defined TWDM (Time-Wavelength Division Multiplexing) as the more attractive solution to fulfill the necessary requirements. On March 2013, was approved the ITU-T G.989.1 recommendation addressing possible wavelength plans, according operator’s needs. The most important requirement for this new access generation is to provide an environment of coexistence with the legacy PON and others. In this order, it is necessary new allocation in the spectrum and further interference studies, to preserve all the systems intact. In this scope, the following document presents a study over the new technology TWDM separately, including general features and limitations. Both simulated and experimental results were obtained. Afterward, it is introduced within several coexistence scenarios, with the legacy and signals with different modulation formats, to observe the effect created on its performance. Were taken into account some parameters as channel spacing, transmitted power and high bit rates. The aim is to create a heterogeneous network with high data rate formats coexisting in the same access network to study and help defining the next generation max occupancy of a given network.

Abstract:

It would be unaffordable if the WDM-PON technologies were directly applied for massive deployment. Hence, the potential WDM-PON is to be integrated and improved in order to adapt it for NGPON and the future 5G. The UDWDM-PON can be considered as an ultimate solution for the next-generation access network capable of providing unlimited bandwidth for each user, thanks to the coherent detection. Plenty of scientists have believed that it is crucial to increase the operating speed and maximum reach of WDM-PON, while it has no sense if people achieve them without a ordable cost. In order to apply them cost-effciently, the system should require colorless ONUs and bidirectional systems. It is desired that the whole system use modulators on a low bias consumption, even limit the number of amplifiers. However, for bidirectional transmission the backscattering effects would limit the performance if we want to reuse the carrier from OLT. So, we should design a method to separate the wavelength between upstream and downstream. The traditional UDWDM-PON uses 2 laser at ONU, in this thesis, the single-DFB based ONUs are presented with integrated devices. What is the most plausible configuration? The photonic devices such as RSOA, DEML, FML with advanced configurations are presented in this thesis with different applications. The proposed thesis includes these parts: key devices for WDM-PON and the chirp parameters of these integrated photonic devices are measured, the polarization independent RSOA with different applications is also included, demonstration of dual output DEML with bidirectional coherent UDWDM-PON transmission, mitigating residual AM of DEML for phase modulation, and fast tuning for the UDWDM channel via FML are described.
Por sus altos requerimientos técnicos, sería inasumible aplicar las tecnologías WDM-PON directamente para el despliegue masivo de Fiber-to-the-Home de nueva generación. Por lo tanto, el potencial se WDM-PON se debe integrar y mejorar con el fin de adaptarlo para NGPON y el futuro 5G. Hoy dia, operadores, usuarios y científicos, ven crucial augmentar la velocitat de funcionament y el alcance de las redes de acceso PON, si bien no tiene sentido conseguirlo con un coste inasequible. El UDWDM-PON puede considerarse como una solución definitiva para la red de acceso de próxima generación, capaz de proporcionar ancho de banda ilimitado para cada usuario, gracias a la detección coherente, por lo que en esta tesis se aborda su realización con un coste e integración prácticos. Con el fin de aplicarlos de manera rentable, el sistema debería exigir a las ONU que sean idénticas, si láseres preseleccionados o incoloros, y ser bidireccionales. Se desea que el conjunto de moduladores del sistema tengan en un bajo consumo, e incluso limitar el número de amplificadores. Sin embargo, para la transmisión bidireccional los efectos de retrodispersión limitarían el rendimiento si queremos volver a utilizar la portadora generada en la OLT. Por lo tanto, debemos diseñar un método para separar la longitud de onda en las transmisiones de bajada y de retorno del usuario a la central. El tradicional UDWDM-PON utiliza 2 láseres en la ONU; en esta tesis, las ONUs usan dispositivos integrados basados en un sólo DFB. ¿Cuál es la configuración más plausible? Los dispositivos fotónicos como RSOA, DEML, FML con configuraciones avanzadas se presentan en esta tesis con diferentes aplicaciones, que resuelven distintos problemas técnicos. La tesis incluye las siguientes partes: análisis y medida de dispositivos fotónicos clave para WDM-PON con modulación de fase, la independencia a la polarización de RSOA con diferentes aplicaciones, demostración de DEML con doble salida para transmisión bidireccional coherente UDWDM-PON, mitigación de AM residual de DEML para la modulación de fase, y la sintonía rápida de canal de UDWDM a través de FML.

Aquesta tesi presenta un pla de millores des de les xarxes d'accés existents basades en coure a xarxes de fibra òptica fins la llar de segona generació basades en xarxes òptiques passives per enrutament de longitud d'ona.

El pla de millora es presenta en dues etapes, que despleguen fibra des de la central de commutació fins als usuaris finals de manera gradual, oferint també un increment en l'ample de banda disponible quan la fibra es va aproximant a l' usuari.

Quan la xarxa està totalment desplegada i la fibra està present en tot l'enllaç entre la central i els usuaris, es presenten diferents topologies avançdades que són candidates a model de xarxa d'accés de fibra òptica de segona generació. Totes aquestes xarxes presentades estan basades en enrutament avançat per longitud d'ona així com en tècniques combinades de multiplexació per longitud d'ona i temps.

Aquestes topologies avançades, juntament amb la utilització de fonts sintonitzables a la central de commutació permeten implementar un protocol d'accés al medi avançat que permet assignar ample de banda sota demanda a diferents àrees geogràfiques en temps real i depenent de la utilització de la xarxa.

S'han dut a terme demostradors de laboratori per tal d'assegurar la connectivitat a nivell òptic i la correcta transmissió de dades i Aixa demostrar la validesa del pla de millora, així com de les topologies avançades,.

Addicionalment, s'han desenvolupat models matemàtics i simulacions per tal de corroborar i mesurar les millores sobre el rendiment de la xarxa en aplicar el protocol d'accés al medi proposat, tot comparant-lo amb els protocols comercials existents per xarxes òptiques passives.
This thesis presents an upgrade path from the existing copper-based access networks to a second-generation fiber-to-the-home approach based on advanced wavelength-routed passive optical networks.

The upgrade path is presented in two stages, which deploy fiber from the central office to the end users in a gradual manner, offering also incremental bandwidth to the user when the fiber is nearer the end customers.

When the upgrade path is totally deployed and fiber is present in the entire link between the central office and the end users, several advanced topologies are presented as candidates for second-generation access networks. All of them are based on advanced wavelength routing profiles and combined wavelength / time multiplexing techniques.

These advanced topologies, together with the use of tunable sources at the central office
allow the implementation of an advanced media access control protocol that can assign bandwidth on demand to different geographic locations in real time depending on the network utilization.

Laboratory testbeds have been implemented to corroborate optical connectivity and correct data transmission in order to verify the feasibility of the upgrade paths and advanced topologies.

Additionally, mathematical models and networks simulations have been developed to corroborate and measure the improvements on network performance of the proposed media access control protocol in comparison with the existing protocols for commercial passive optical networks.

Abstract:

The main goal of this diploma thesis was to implement the proposal of optical access networks in the selected location. Introduce is focused on the physical layer of network. This includes optical fibers, optical cables, connectors, optical splitters, and more. According to the place of termination of optical fiber will be studied best FTTx connections. According to network topology distinguished point to point and point to multipoint network. Networks points to point are also known as an active optical network and for each user are restricted to a separate fiber. Point to multipoint networks known as passive optical network. In terms of the PON is defined by many standards. For a selected location will be choice the most appropriate solution. Finally, the measurement will be made and will be considered for monitoring the route. Before the design of optical access networks, I made an illustrative simulation in program OptSim. Performed simulations helps to study the transmission characters of optical networks, depending on the physical architecture. In general, for the design of high-capabilities networks for large companies will be more appropriate active topology that provides due wavelength multiplexes high transmission capacity. To join in the urban areas with a large number of separate houses, it is more appropriate use of passive topology. For the design of optical networks has been selected location with multiple housing buildings. The end customer is not given the requirement for high data transfer rates as large companies. For the proposal was selected FTTB networks which is suitable because of lower costs. The second variant of the proposal was a passive optical network according to standard GPON. This standard was chosen because of the high splitting ratio. For both solutions was developed the entire proposal by ITU-T with a detailed drawing documentation. In the selected area was conducted measuring the optical networks in order to verify the possibility of extension actual solutions. For a sample issue of measurements, I made several measurements using optical reflectometer over an optical splitter in order to prove the need for measurements during construction. FTTH networks gaining in popularity more and more, but price is the limiting factor.

Abstract:

Wavelength division multiplexing passive optical network (WDM-PON) can meet growing bandwidth demand in access network by providing high bandwidth to the end users. Failure in the access network is becoming critical as a large volume of traffic might be affected. Therefore, an effective supervision mechanism to detect and localize the fault is required to shorten the service interruption time. Meanwhile, open access provides a certain freedom for end users to choose the service and hence boosts competition among service/network providers. On the other hand, to offer open access in WDM-PON could result in a substantial change on architectural design, e.g., multiple feeder fibers (FFs) instead of a single one may be required to connect different service/network providers. Consequently, the traditional supervision mechanisms don’t work properly in open WDM-PON. To fill in this gap, several fault supervision mechanisms to support open access in WDMPON are proposed in this thesis. They can be applied to both disjoint and co-located FF layout where the choice of providers is done through wavelength selection. The feasibility of such solutions has been validated by evaluating transmission performance. We have carried out simulations in VPItransmissionMaker for different deployment scenarios. The results have confirmed that no significant degradation of the transmission performance is introduced by the proposed monitoring schemes compared to the benchmark, where no any fault supervision method is implemented.

Generally speaking, this part is dedicated to optical connections over long distances. It will concentrate on different types of wavelength division multiplexing, optical fiber amplifiers and other basic optical components. Then it discusses influence of negative effects acting on optical transmission and discusses how to reduce or suppress their influence. Subsequently, there is designed backbone network in the Czech Republic in OptiSystem 7.0 software and are verified some mentioned theoretical knowledge. One of chapters also presents results of measurements of real optical routes in our state. The second part of the diploma thesis moves its attention on that part of optical network, which provides data connectivity to end users, that means it is focused on optical access network. There are described the most common topologies, standards and components. Based on these findings, in the last chapter, there is worked out design of optical access network FTTH (more precisely FTTD) in the selected location. Afterwards, the design is transferred to the OptiSystem 7.0 software, where is verified its functionality.

Abstract:

In order to address the explosive demand for high-capacity and omnipresent wireless access, modern cell-based wireless networks are slowly adopting two major solution roadmaps. The first is the employment of small-cell formations in order to increase the overall spectral efficiency, whereas the second is the employment of higher frequency bands, such as the mm-wave 60GHz band, that offers vast amounts of bandwidth. Depending on the specific application, the above solutions inevitably require the installation and operational management of large amounts of Base Stations (BSs) or Access Points (APs), which ultimately diminishes the overall cost-effectiveness of the architecture. In order to reduce the system cost, Radio over Fiber (RoF) technology has been put forward as an ideal candidate solution, due to the fact that it provides functionally simple antenna units, often termed as Remote Antenna Units (RAUs) that are interconnected to a central managing entity, termed as the Central Office (CO), via an optical fiber. Although extensive research efforts have been dedicated to the development of the physical layer aspects regarding RoF technologies, such as CO/RAU physical layer design and radio signal transport techniques over fiber, very limited efforts have con-centrated on upper layer and resource management issues. In this dissertation, we are concerned with access control and resource management of RoF-based mm-wave network architectures targeting the exploitation of the dual medium and its centralized control properties in order to perform optimal optical/wireless/time resource allocation. In this dissertation, we propose a Medium-Transparent MAC (MT-MAC) protocol that concurrently administers the optical and wireless resources of a 60GHz RoF based network, seamlessly connecting the CO to the wireless terminals through minimal RAU intervention. In this way, the MT-MAC protocol forms extended reach 60GHz WLAN networks offering connectivity amongst wireless devices that are attached to the same or different RAUs under both Line of Sight (LOS) and non LOS conditions. The notion of medium-transparency relies on two parallel contention periods, the first in the optical domain and the second in the wireless frequency and time domains, with nested dataframe structures. The MT-MAC operation is based on a proposed RAU design that allows for wavelength selectivity functions, thus being compatible with completely passive optical distribution network implementations that are predominately used by telecom operators today. Two variants of the MT-MAC protocol are considered. The first offers dynamic wavelength allocation with fixed time windows, whereas the second targets fairness-sensitive applications by offering dynamic wavelength allocation with dynamic transmission opportunity window sizes, based on the number of active clients connected at each RAU. Both variants of the protocol are evaluated by both simulation and analytical means. For the latter part, this thesis introduces two analytical models for calculating saturation throughput and non-saturation packet delay for the converged MT-MAC protocol. Finally, this thesis presents an extensive study regarding the network planning and formation of 60GHz Gigabit WLAN networks when the latter are deployed over existing Passive Optical Network (PON) infrastructures. Three possible architectures where studied: i) the RoF approach, ii) the Radio & Fiber approach and iii) the hybrid RoF-plus-R&F approach that combines the properties of both the aforementioned architectures. During the elaboration of this thesis, one major key conclusion has been extracted. The work proposed in this thesis considers that there is a fundamental requirement for implementing new converged optical/wireless MAC protocols, that have the complete overview of both available resources in order to effectively administer the hybrid Radio-over-Fiber networks.
A fin de atender la demanda explosiva de alta capacidad y acceso inalámbrico omnipresente, las redes inalámbricas basadas en celdas están poco a poco adoptando dos principales guías de solución. La primera es el empleo de formaciones de celdas pequeñas con el fin de aumentar la eficiencia espectral global, mientras que la segunda es el empleo de bandas de frecuencia superior, como la banda de 60GHz, la cual ofrece una gran cantidad de ancho de banda. Dependiendo de la aplicación en específico, las soluciones anteriores inevitable-mente requieren de una instalación y una gestión operativa de grandes cantidades de Estaciones Base o Puntos de Acceso, que en última instancia disminuye la rentabilidad de la arquitectura. Para reducir el coste, la tecnología radioeléctrica por fibra (RoF) se presenta como una solución ideal debido al hecho de que proporciona unidades de antenas de sim-ple funcionamiento, a menudo denominadas Unidades de Antenas Remotas (RAUs), las cuales están interconectadas a una entidad central de gestión, denominada Oficina Central (CO), a través de la fibra óptica. A pesar de que se han dedicado muchos esfuerzos de investigación al desarrollo de varios aspectos de las capas física con respecto a las tecnologías RoF, muy pocos esfuerzos se han concentrado en la capa superior y cuestiones de gestión de recursos. En esta tesis, nos enfocando en el control de acceso y gestión de recursos de arquitecturas RoF y comunicaciones milimétricas, con el fin de aprovechar y explotar el medio dual y las propiedades para realizar una óptima asignación de los recursos ópticos, inalámbricos y temporales. Nosotros proponemos un protocolo Transparente al Medio MAC (MT-MAC) que simultáneamente administre los recursos ópticos e inalámbricos de una red RoF a 60GHz, conectando a la perfección el CO a los terminales inalámbricos a través de una mínima intervención RAU. El protocolo MT-MAC forma unas redes WLAN 60GHz de alcance extendido, ofreciendo así conectividad entre los dispositivos inalámbricos que están conectados al mismo o diferentes RAUs bajo con o sin Línea de Vista (condiciones LOS o NLOS) respectivamente. La noción de transparencia al medio se basa en dos períodos de contención para-lelos, el primero en el dominio óptico y el segundo en la frecuencia inalámbrica y dominio del tiempo, con estructuras de datos anidados. La operación MT-MAC se basa en proponer un diseño RAU que permita la selectividad de funciones de longitud de onda. Dos variantes del protocolo MT- MAC son considerados; el primer ofrece asignación de longitud de onda dinámica con ventanas de tiempo fijo, mientras que la segunda tiene como objetivo entornos de aplicaciones sensibles ofreciendo asignación de longitud de onda con tamaño de ventana de oportunidad de transmisión dinámico, basado en el número de clientes conectados en cada RAU. Ambas variantes del protocolo están evaluadas tanto por medios analíticos como de simulación. En la segunda parte, esta tesis introduce dos modelos analíticos para calcular el rendimiento de saturación y no saturación del retardo de paquetes para el protocolo MT-MAC convergente. Finalmente, esta tesis presenta un extenso estudio de la planificación de red y la formación de redes 60GHz Gigabit WLAN cuando esta se encuentra desplegada sobre las ya existente infraestructuras de Redes Ópticas Pasivas (PONs). Tres posibles arquitecturas han sido estudiadas: i) el enfoque RoF, ii) el enfoque Radio y Fibra , y iii) el enfoque híbrido, RoF más R&F el cual combina las propiedades de ambas arquitecturas anteriormente mencionadas. Durante la elaboración de esta tesis, se ha extraído una importante conclusión: hay un requerimiento fundamental para implementar nuevos protocolos ópticos/inalámbricos convergentes, que tengan una completa visión de ambos recursos disponibles para poder administrar efectivamente las redes de tecnología RoF.

Abstract:

Cette thèse s’inscrit dans le cadre de la montée en débit des réseaux d’accès optiques passifs. Les travaux menés durant cette thèse s’appuient sur le constat que les technologies actuelles basées sur le multiplexage temporel, arriveront à leurs limites dans les années à venir et ne pourront plus répondre à l’évolution des besoins en débit. L’étude des problèmes rencontrés lors les déploiements actuels conduit à proposer une autre forme de multiplexage plus adaptée aux débits demandés par les utilisateurs : le multiplexage fréquentiel (ou FDM/FDMA). Les travaux réalisés dans cette thèse ont pour but de montrer la faisabilité d’une telle architecture en laboratoire. Les objectifs sont de déterminer les débits atteignables, que ce soit pour le lien descendant (du central vers l’abonné) ou pour le lien montant (abonnée vers central), mais également de réaliser une étude théorique afin de mettre en lumière les limites de cette solution. Des algorithmes d’allocation dynamique de ressources ont été élaborés et validés expérimentalement afin de déterminer la capacité totale de chaque lien. L’architecture utilisant deux longueurs d’ondes distinctes (une pour le lien descendant et l’autre pour le lien montant) permet d’atteindre un débit de 40 Gbps et 20 Gbps respectivement pour le lien descendant et montant en utilisant le format de multiplexage FDM/FDMA. Enfin, une architecture hybride n’employant qu’une seule longueur d’onde pour le transport à la fois les données montantes et descendantes a été explorée et permet d’atteindre un débit symétrique de 25Gbps
This thesis is part of the growing capacity of passive optical access networks. The works done during this thesis are based on the fact that current technologies, employing time division multiplexing, will reach their limits in the coming years and will no longer respond to changes in high bitrates requirements. The study of problems encountered during the current deployments led us to propose another form of multiplexing more suitable for bitrates requested by users: the FDM/FDMA PON, frequency division multiplexing. The work done in this thesis aim to demonstrate the feasibility of a such architecture in the laboratory. The objectives are to determine the achievable capacity, whether for the downlink (from central office to user) or the uplink (subscriber to central), but also to achieve a theoretical study to highlight the limitations of this solution. Algorithms for dynamic allocation of resources have been developed and validated experimentally to determine the total capacity of each link. The architecture using two distinct wavelengths (one for the downlink and one for the uplink) achieves a capacity of 40Gbps for the downlink and 20Gbps for the uplink by using FDM/FDMA PON. Finally, a hybrid architecture using a single wavelength to transport both uplink and downlink data has been explored and achieves a symmetrical capacity of 25Gbps

Abstract:

Redes ópticas passivas são redes de acesso que utilizam fibras ópticas interligadas na topologia estrela e na configuração ponto-multiponto, sendo constituídas apenas por componentes ópticos passivos entre o terminal de linha óptica (optical line terminal - OLT) e a unidade de rede óptica (optical network unit - ONU). Como estratégia de evolução tecnológica, podem ser utilizadas para aproveitar a base instalada de cabos de cobre e cabos coaxiais na rede de acesso, servindo como cabo alimentador para uso das tecnologias digital subscriber line (DSL), cable modem e local multipoint distribution system (LMDS), e, no futuro, para disponibilizar a fibra óptica até às instalações do usuário. O principal mérito da arquitetura das redes ópticas passivas está na redução dos custos de implantação e de manutenção, pela ampliação da largura de banda disponível sem a necessidade de aumento no número de componentes ópticos ativos na rede, como lasers e amplificadores ópticos. Neste contexto, este trabalho define as redes ópticas passivas, apresenta o histórico de seu desenvolvimento, seu princípio de funcionamento e suas aplicações como forma de acesso a serviços de banda larga, identifica fornecedores visando à implementação de um teste de campo e discute as perspectivas para o futuro dessa tecnologia
Passive optical networks (PONs) are access networks which use interconnected optical fibers configured in a point to multipoint star topology having only passive optical components between the optical line terminal (OLT) and the optical network unit (ONU). As a strategy for technological evolution they can be used to take advantage of copper and coax base cables installed in the access network, serving as a feeder cable for the use of DSL, cable modem and LMDS technologies, in order to allow optical fibers to reach customers' facilities. The main merit of the passive optical networks architecture consists on the cost reduction involved on its implantation and maintenance, offering bandwidth enlargement without increasing the number of active optical components, such as lasers and optical amplifiers, in the network. In this context, this text defines PONs, presents its development history, operation principle and their applications as a way to provide broadband access services, identifies suppliers for field test implementation and discusses the perspectives for the future

Abstract:

Neste trabalho propomos e analisamos algoritmos de alocação dinâmica de banda para rede óptica passiva (PON) de acesso padrão GPON (Gigabit PON). Estes algoritmos utilizam dados oriundos de SLA (service level agreement) para gerenciar a alocação de banda e classificar em 4 contêineres de tráfego (T-CONT) o tráfego gerado em 16 ONUs (optical network unit). Na transmissão upstream é utilizada a técnica de multiplexação por divisão de tempo (TDM) para gerenciar o acesso ao meio, evitando colisões. O primeiro algoritmo proposto aloca banda garantida para as ONUs e distribui a banda não utilizada de acordo com critério baseado em três SLAs. A taxa de bit upstream é 1,25 Gbps e o desempenho do algoritmo é analisado com base na variação do atraso de pacotes em função do tráfego gerado nas ONUs. O segundo algoritmo proposto utiliza ponderação de tráfego. Neste, analisamos o comportamento dos atrasos e a quantidade de banda solicitada e atendida por ONU quando as bandas garantida e extra são alteradas. Por fim, acrescentamos em nossa implementação um intervalo para o processamento do algoritmo de alocação dinâmica de banda (DBA) e resposta do hardware relacionado ao ciclo de interrogação. Então, analisamos o atraso de pacotes quando variamos o intervalo de processamento do DBA. Ao final, propomos uma solução preliminar para minimizar estes atrasos. Os resultados obtidos por meio de simulação computacional mostram a versatilidade dos algoritmos.
In this work we propose and analyze the performance of dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithms for optical passive networks (PON) in GPON standard (Gigabit PON). These algorithms use data from SLA (service level agreement) to manage bandwidth allocation and classify in 4 traffic containers (T-CONT) the traffic generated by 16 ONUs (optical network unit). In the upstream transmission the time division multiplexing (TDM) technique is used to manage the medium access, avoiding collisions. The first proposed algorithm allocates guaranteed bandwidth for the ONUs and distributes the bandwidth not used according to the criteria based on three SLAs. The upstream bit rate is 1.25 Gbps and the algorithm performance is analyzed based on the packets delay variation versus the traffic generated by ONUs. The second proposed algorithm uses weighted traffic. In this, we analyze the delay performance and the required bandwidth for each ONU and how much it is served when the guaranteed and extra bandwidth are changed. Finally, we added in our implementation an interval for the processing of the dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithm (DBA) and response of the hardware related to the interrogation cycle. In the end, we propose a preliminary solution to minimize these delays. The results obtained by means of computational simulation show the versatility of the algorithms.

As redes ópticas passivas de nova geração 2 (NG-PON2) estão estudando e considerando o WDM-PON (Wavelength-Division-Multiplexed Passive Optical Networks) como a nova arquitetura para as redes de acesso, é provável que esta arquitetura seja adotada num futuro como o padrão. No entanto, algumas instalações já foram realizadas em todo o mundo, a maior parte delas na Coréia do Sul. Com o objetivo de reduzir os custos de operação (OPEX) e garantir a qualidade do serviço (QoS) um sistema de supervisão e localização de falhas é necessário. Neste trabalho é proposto e demonstrado um OTDR sintonizável (Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer) para realizar o monitoramento de redes WDMPON em serviço. O método apresentado é provado para diferentes fontes laser sintonizáveis CW (Continuous Wave) e utiliza um amplificador óptico semicondutor (SOA) como comutador para o sinal de prova. O sistema de monitoramento é provado experimentalmente numa rede WDM-PON simulada no laboratório a qual utiliza um AWG (Arrayed Waveguide Grating) como distribuidor. Os resultados foram melhorados utilizando diferentes métodos para mitigar os efeitos de interferência.

However some deployments have been achieved worldwide, most of them in South Korea. In order to lower the operational expenditure (OPEX) and guarantee quality-of-service (QoS) an in-service monitoring and fault localization system is required. We propose and demonstrate a tunable optical time-domain reflectometer (T-OTDR) for in-service monitoring of (WDM-PONs). The proposed method is proved for different continuous wave tunable laser sources (CW TLS), and uses semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) as a switch for the probe signal. This monitoring system is experimentally proved in a simulated WDMPON employing a cyclic AWG (Arrayed Waveguide Grating) as wavelength distributor. We improve the results using different methods to mitigate the interference effects.

Abstract:

O presente trabalho descreve o desenvolvimento e implementação de duas configurações distintas de um receptor optoeletrônico integrado. A primeira configuração é similar a um projeto encontrado na literatura mas apresenta diversas modificações que lhe conferiram melhor desempenho em comparação ao projeto original. A segunda configuração é uma nova proposta deste trabalho. O receptor foi desenvolvido e implementado visando sua aplicação em redes de comunicações ópticas passivas (PONs) de alta velocidade comutadas a pacote, para possibilitar a utilização da técnica de multiplexação em comprimento de onda (WDM), aumentando assim a capacidade de transmissão da rede, em particular no ramo de ligação da rede de serviços com o usuário final, denominado rede de acesso. O principal objetivo do receptor aqui desenvolvido foi proporcionar uma sintonia rápida entre os canais disponíveis na rede, possibilitando sua seleção num tempo inferior àquele necessário para a transmissão de um único pacote de informação, diminuindo assim o atraso de sintonia e, por conseguinte, a perda de informação. Para tanto, os circuitos integrados implementados e caracterizados referem-se aos circuitos de chaveamento eletrônico e do amplificador de transimpedância das duas configurações investigadas. Os dados experimentais obtidos para as duas configurações confirmaram a previsão de chaveamento dos canais de entrada num intervalo de tempo da ordem de alguns nanosegundos, o que é totalmente compatível com a velocidade de transmissão das aplicações a que se destina este receptor (aproximadamente 5 Gbits/s). Adicionalmente, são apresentados os dados experimentais relativos à freqüência de corte, ganho direto, isolação, relação on/off e características de ruído dos circuitos implementados.
The present work describes the design and implementation of two configurations of an integrated optoelectronic receiver. The first one is similar to a previously reported design but with some modifications to improve its performance. The second one is a new proposal of this work. The goal of the receiver design and implementation was its application in high bit rate packet-switched passive optical networks (PONs) employing the wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technique to increase the network capacity, in particular on the connection branch of the network core with the final user, the access network. The main goal of the receiver design was to achieve a fast channel tuning, allowing a tuning time smaller than the required for the transmission of a single information packet, decreasing the tuning latency and, therefore, the rate of information packet loss. In order to accomplish this goal, the implemented and tested integrated circuits include the electronic switching circuit and the transimpedance amplifier for both configurations investigated. The measured data for both configurations confirm the expected input channel switching time results, of about a few nanoseconds, which is certainly useful for the expected bit rate of operation (approximate 5 Gbps). Additionally, experimental results concerning cutoff frequency and bandwidth, direct gain, isolation, on/off ratio, and noise characteristics of both implemented circuits are presented.

Abstract:

A oferta de novos serviços para os usuários finais, como o denominado triple play, que consiste no tráfego simultâneo de voz, vídeo e dados utilizando a mesma infra-estrutura de comunicação, vem exigindo que as estruturas de rede das operadoras ofereçam largura de banda adequada e qualidade de serviço. Nesse contexto, as redes ópticas passivas (PON) vêm se destacando em virtude de oferecerem maior largura de banda a custos relativamente baixos. Nas redes ópticas passivas, trechos de fibras ópticas podem ser compartilhados entre diversos assinantes, exigindo, para isso, a utilização de técnicas de controle de acesso múltiplo. Destaque maior é dado à técnica de acesso múltiplo por divisão de códigos ópticos (OCDMA), por apresentar características tais como maior segurança e capacidade flexível sob demanda. O desempenho dessa tecnologia é basicamente limitado pela interferência de acesso múltiplo, ou interferência multiusuário (MAI). No presente trabalho, cenários OCDMA-PON utilizando códigos ópticos unidimensionais, baseados na codificação prima modificada (MPC), e bidimensionais, baseados na codificação óptica ortogonal de múltiplos comprimentos de onda (MWOOC), são descritos, e seus respectivos desempenhos investigados. Os desempenhos desses sistemas são verificados utilizando-se os seguintes esquemas de modulação: 1) On-off Keying (OOK), cujo formalismo para a codificação padded MPC (PMPC) e double padded MPC (DPMPC) foi aqui desenvolvido, 2) por posição de pulso (PPM), considerando os ruídos poissonianos de deteção, cujo formalismo foi também aqui desenvolvido, 3) por posição de pulso (PPM) considerando apenas a interferência de acesso múltiplo (MAI), 4) semelhante ao (3), porém, utilizando a técnica mitigadora de MAI via cancelamento paralelo de interferência (PIC), e 5) semelhante ao (4) porém utilizando modulação por chaveamento de frequência (FSK). Em seguida, a codificação bidimensional MWOOC, utilizando modulação OOK, é analisada com e sem a utilização de PIC. Além desses esquemas, são também incluídas, pela primeira vez nesses formalismos, técnicas de correção posterior de erro (FEC) baseadas no algoritmo Reed-Solomon (RS). A figura de mérito adotada nas simulações é baseada no cálculo da taxa de erro de bit (BER). Os resultados obtidos para os diversos casos investigados neste trabalho indicam que a combinação PIC/FEC deve ser considerada de modo a se obter níveis de BER compatíveis com a região livre de erros (BER < \'10 POT.-12\') para os cenários de redes de acesso atuais e futuros (visando atender a 32 ou 64 usuários simultâneos).
The advent of new services offered to end users, such as the so called triple play, which consists in the simultaneous traffic of voice, video, and data through the same communication infrastructure, has been pushing telecom operators towards providing adequate bandwidth as well as quality of service. This has brought the spotlight to passive optical networks (PONs) by virtue of their considerably higher bandwidth at relatively low cost. In PONs, certain fiber optic spans can be shared among different users as long as multiple access control techniques are used. One such technique is the optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) technique, which, in addition, presents improved data security and flexible capacity on demand. The performance of this technology is basically limited by multi access interference (MAI), which becomes more severe as the number of simultaneous users increases. In the present work, OCDMA-PON scenarios utilizing one- and two-dimensional optical codes separately such as modified prime codes (MPC) and multi-wavelength optical orthogonal codes (MWOOC), are described and thoroughly investigated. The performances of these systems are investigated based on the following modulation schemes: 1) On-off keying (OOK), where a new formalism for the double-padded MPC is proposed, 2) Pulse position modulation (PPM), and 3) Frequency shift keying (FSK) together with MAI mitigation technique based on parallel interference cancelation (PIC). Besides these schemes, it is also included for the first time in these formalisms forward error correction techniques (FEC) based on the Reed-Solomon (RS) algorithm. The figure of merit adopted in all simulations is the bit error rate (BER). The results obtained for the cases investigated in this work indicate that the combination PIC/FEC must be considered if one is interested in obtaining BER levels compatible with the error-free region (BER < \'10 POT.-12\') for the current and future access network scenarios (aiming at attending 32 or 64 simultaneous users).

Abstract:

Intensity Modulation and Direct Detection (IMDD) Optical Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OOFDM) is considered as one of the most competitive candidates for high-speed, cost-effective and flexible Next Generation Passive Optical Networks (NGPONs). For practical implementation of the technique, five technical challenges originating from inherent OFDM properties and/or IMDD system characteristics have to be solved successfully. The challenges include: i) insufficient utilization of Multi-Mode Fibre (MMF) frequency response; ii) improvement in IMDD OOFDM transmission capacity in Single- Mode Fibre (SMF)-based systems; iii) simplification of OOFDM transceiver configurations; iv) the employment of low-cost transceiver components to achieve the desired system performance; v) effective compensation of directly modulated DFB laser (DML)-induced positive frequency chirp. The present PhD dissertation research is dedicated to addressing the aforementioned challenges. For fully utilizing the system frequency response of a MMF transmission link, an Adaptively Modulated OOFDM (AMOOFDM) modem using Subcarrier Modulation (SCM) (AMOOFDM-SCM) is proposed, which consists of two AMOOFDM modems in parallel with one operating at the baseband and the other being modulated onto an intermediate Radio Frequency (RF) carrier. Extensive investigations show that, compared with AMOOFDM, AMOOFDM-SCM not only enhances the transmission capacity versus reach performance by a factor of approximately 2, but also considerably improves the system flexibility and performance robustness. When use is made of the AMOOFDM-SCM technique in SMF-based transmission links, the intermixing effect induced by direct detection in the receiver is identified to be a dominant factor limiting the maximum achievable AMOOFDM-SCM performance. To maximize the link performance through mitigating the intermixing effect, three AMOOFDM-SCM modem designs of different complexity levels are proposed by applying Single Sideband (SSB) modulation and/or spectral gapping in AMOOFDM-SCM. It is shown that these AMOOFDM-SCM designs can support >60Gb/s signal transmission over at least 20km, which is >1.5 times higher than that supported by the AMOOFDM modems. In the above-mentioned three AMOOFDM-SCM modems, two Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT)/ Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) operations are required in the transmitter/receiver. To reduce the transceiver complexity and system cost, three simplified AMOOFDM-SCM modems are proposed, each of which requires a single IFFT/FFT operation. These designs not only significantly simplify the AMOOFDM-SCM modem configurations but also offer extra network features such as input/output reconfigurability without compromising the transmission performance. To relax the requirements on parameters of key transceiver components such as Digital-to- Analogue Converters (DACs) and Analogue-to-Digital Converters (ADCs), a reduction in Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) associated with an OFDM signal is necessary. To achieve such an objective, AMOOFDM using Phase Modulation (PM) (AMOOFDM-PM) is proposed and explored in IMDD SMF systems. AMOOFDM-PM utilises an electrical OFDM signal to modulate the phase of a RF carrier prior to performing optical intensity modulation. Compared to AMOOFDM, AMOOFDM-PM can considerably reduce the PAPRs of OFDM signals and simultaneously lower the minimum requirements on quantization bits and sampling rates of DACs/ADCs. To effectively compensate the DML frequency chirp effects, detailed investigations of dynamic negative power penalty characteristics of OOFDM signal transmission are undertaken in DML-based IMDD systems incorporating MetroCor fibres with negative dispersion parameters. Excellent agreement between numerical simulations and real-time experimental measurements is obtained over a wide diversity of system conditions. The physical mechanism underpinning the occurrence of negative power penalties is the reduction in subcarrier intermixing impairments due to the compensation between DML positive frequency chirp and MetroCor negative chromatic dispersion. It is also shown that the negative power penalty is independent of both cyclic prefix and signal modulation format, and, more importantly, controllable when adaptive modulation and/or appropriate adjustments of DML operating conditions are applied. Finally, for reducing the DML frequency chirp, a simple and effective chirp compensation technique is also proposed, which utilizes an electrical analogue circuit and an optical phase modulator. The electrical analogue circuit produces a phase signal mimicking the original phase of the DML-modulated optical signal, and the optical phase modulator driven by the generatedp hases ignal compensatesth e DML frequency chirp. In DMLIIbased IMDD AMOOFDM PON systems, the technique can almost completely alleviate the DML frequency chirp effect and simultaneously improve the transmission capacity by approximately 25% for transmission distances in a range of 30-80km. In addition, the technique is also robust to variations in DML operating conditions. The results presented in the thesis can provide valuable technical solutions for further improving the OOFDM transmission capacity, performance robustness and system flexibility, as well as simultaneously reducing the transceiver complexity and system cost for cost-sensitive NG-PONs.

Abstract:

The emergence of new bandwidth-intensive applications articulated by distance learning, online gaming, Web 2.0 and movie delivery by means of high-definition video, has ultimately justified the necessity of upgrading the access network infrastructure to provide fat-bandwidth pipelines at subscriber close proximity. Passive optical networks (PONs) are an emerging technology to deliver these services. This thesis presents innovative work performed towards the application of coarse wavelength division multiplexing (CWDM) to route communications to and from reflective optical network units (ONUs) incorporated in time and wavelength division multiplexed PONs. The concept of coarse and dense WDM grid integration and its adaptation in access networks to map, for the first time, selective closely-spaced wavelengths into coarse passband windows of Gaussian and flat-top arrayed waveguide gratings (AWGs), exhibiting coarse-fine grooming, is initially developed. This is followed by the identification of a new network architecture combining multiple PONs, using a coarse AWG to form a next-generation access network. A significant feature of this approach allows for time division multiplexing (TDM) and WDM PON technologies to be integrated through the 7 nm coarse passband windows of a single AWG, providing for interoperability and high scalability. The network performance through simulation, in the presence of polarisation-dependent wavelength shift and associated polarisation-dependent loss, shows the capability of a single optical line terminal (OLT) to access various physical PONs in 25 km proximity with multiple wavelengths through a single AWG router. This approach enables centralised bandwidth allocation and a smooth migration path between time-shared and densely-penetrated access networks. Furthermore, to demonstrate full-duplex operation, allowing for increased bandwidth utilisation of the reflective access network architecture, full-duplex functionality is achieved by using polarisation division multiplexing. This is implemented in the OLT by assigning each ONU downstream data and continues waves on orthogonal states of polarisation. Hence, by assuming the use of symmetrical broadband services, the novel multi-PON access network verifies its potential to double the bandwidth utilisation for each subscriber, allowing for increased bidirectional network throughput. In addition, an experimental test-bed is performed which demonstrates the core operation of the network being, by means of a readily-available 2.7 nm-wide AWG router. Hence, the practical feasibility of the new access network concept is demonstrated.

Abstract:

The work presented herein explores the use of digital coherent receivers in loss limited transmission with a view to implementation in a 100 km long-reach passive optical network (LR-PON) with a net data rate of 10 Gbit/s per optical network unit. Optical power receiver sensitivity limits are investigated for C-band coherent receivers. Coherent-enabled advanced (amplitude, phase, and polarisation) modulation schemes are characterised in terms of electronic and optical bandwidth requirements and power efficiency to determine the optimum modulation format for a high capacity LRPON. Including the net coding gain achievable with forward error correction, the high power efficiency of polarisation switched (PS) quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) enables an experimental demonstration of 4 photons/bit receiver sensitivity, while polarisation division multiplexed (PDM) QPSK enables transmission with 5 photons/bit sensitivity; a 0.5 dB power penalty. Nevertheless, PDM-QPSK is identified as the optimum modulation format for coherent LR-PON, due to its 1.25 dB bandwidth efficiency advantage over PS-QPSK. A coherent access network architecture is developed using 10 Gbit/s PDM-QPSK channels in a wavelength division multiplexed configuration. Multiple access is achieved by using the frequency selectivity of the coherent receiver to provide gain to the channel of interest. Combined with high receiver sensitivity, this demonstrates the feasibility of colourless network operation supporting 1024 channels. In bidirectional transmission, crosstalk from backscattering of optical power is mitigated using the receiver frequency selectivity and by using pulse shaping to restrict the optical channel bandwidth. A reflection-to-signal power ratio of 18.5 dB is tolerated without penalty. Practical realisation is addressed by exploring low complexity, multiplier-free digital signal processing (DSP) algorithms for adaptive channel equalisation; algorithms are identified that can be used without penalty. Finally, to address issues of integration, tunable local oscillator lasers, suitable for monolithic integration, are investigated. The receiver DSP is modified to overcome the additional intensity noise from these lasers. In this scenario, the reduced receiver sensitivity would still enable an LR-PON with 128 channels.

Recentemente , as redes ópticas de nova geração têm sido motivo de acesa discussão nos meios científicos. Com o aumento verificado nos últimos anos do numero de utilizadores e o aparecimento de novos serviços disponibilizados através das redes de acesso, torna-se cada vez mais claro que a fibra óptica é a única solução para disponibilizar a largura de banda necessária. Neste trabalho é apresentado um novo método passivo capaz de aumentar os níveis de escalabilidade e reconfigurabilidade destas redes. O método consiste no controlo da quantidade de potência de bomba entregue a um amplificador ou conjunto de amplificadores remotos em série, permitindo o controlo independentemente do ganho fornecido por cada amplificador. Utilizando o método proposto consegue-se evitar o uso de componentes activos, ou mais complexos, para controlo da quantidade de potência de bomba a fornecer aos amplificadores remotos, tornando o processo de amplificação simultaneamente passivo e reconfigurável. Foi também desenvolvido, no âmbito deste trabalho, uma ferramenta de simulação baseada em algoritmos genéticos, capaz de simular e determinar a melhor solução para diversos cenários, optimizando os diversos parâmetros. Foi também realizada a caracterização de uma fibra óptica dopada com érbio, onde foi estudado o comportamento do ganho da fibra dopada quando bombeada por um sinal de bomba diferente dos comprimentos de onda nominais, 980nm e 1480nm. Ainda, o caso de bombeamentos com diferentes comprimentos de onda multiplexados foi motivo de estudo. ABSTRACT: Recently, the new generation optical networks are being the focus of several discussions in the scientific forums. With the observed increase of users in the last years, and the emergence of new services supplied through the access networks, it became even clearer that optical fiber is the best solution to provide the required bandwidth. In this work it is presented a new passive method capable to improve the scalability and reconfigurability of those networks. The method consist in controlling the amount of pump power to be supplied to one or various remotely pumped optical amplifiers disposed in series, and by this, adjust independently the gain of each. Using the proposed method, it is possible to dismiss the use of active or/and complex components, to control the remote amplifiers conditions, making all this amplification process passive and reconfigurable. It was also developed during this work, a simulation tool based in genetic algorithms, capable to simulate and reach the best solution for different network scenarios, optimizing the several parameters. A laboratory characterization of an erbium doped fiber amplifier it was also performed, where it was studied the gain behaviour of the doped fiber, when it is pumped by a signal which wavelength is different of the nominal wavelengths, 980nm and 1480nm. In this characterization it was also studied the gain behaviour when the amplifier is pumped with multiple multiplexed pump signals.

As redes passivas são cada vez mais uma realidade. Os standards estão a desenvolver-se rapidamente (NG-PON, G-PON, etc), e cada vez mais o consumidor final tem maior necessidade de largura de banda, que, numa primeira fase, irá certamente, ser distribuída por redes passivas integralmente ópticas. As redes passivas são, por si, uma solução interessante para os operadores, pois, sendo passivas minimizam os custos de manutenção. No entanto, o reverso desta passividade e transparência, é que estas podem ser alteradas por simples aumento do número de ramais de uma forma independente e potencialmente incontrolada. Um aumento do tráfego, bem como um crescente de procura de novos serviços e larguras de banda, vêm forçar o desenvolvimento de novas tecnologias que permitam um redimensionamento e redefinição da rede, nomeadamente nós ópticos transparentes. O objectivo principal deste trabalho é estudar os processos de alimentação remota de sistemas de comutação e reconfiguração para utilização em redes ópticas passivas, e fazer uma implementação de alguns modelos para teste. De salientar que este projecto enquadra-se no projecto Europeu “SARDANA” e nas redes de excelência “BONE” e “Euro-FOS”. ABSTRACT: The passive networks are becoming a reality. The Standards are evolving rapidly (NG-PON, G-PON, etc), and now, the consumer, more than ever, has a major necessity for bandwidth, which, in a first stage, will certainly be distributed by fully passive optical networks. The passive networks are, on their own, an interesting solution for operators, because, being passive, minimize the maintenance costs. However, the other side of the passiveness and transparency is that it can be altered by simple increase of the number of branches in a independent way and potentially uncontrolled. An increase of traffic, as an increasing search of new services and bandwidth, are forcing the development of new technologies which will allow a network resizing and redefinition, in particular, the transparent optical nodes. The main objective of this work is study the remote powering processes for commutable and reconfigurable systems, to be used in passive optical networks, and implementing some models for testing. Note that this Project falls within the European project “SARDANA” and in the networks of excellence “BONE” and “Euro-FOS”.

Mestrado em Engenharia Electrónica e Telecomunicações
As redes ópticas passivas (PONs) prometem satisfazer os requisitos dos utilizadores e provedores de serviços de forma a obter débitos mais elevados, quando comparados com as tecnologias baseadas em cobre. Com este trabalho pretende-se estudar e apresentar as tecnologias PON correntes actualmente, as suas características principais e alguma interpretação de como estas conseguem satisfazer os requisitos impostos. Vários standards para PON têm vindo a ser desenvolvidos ao longo dos anos e, considerando que a necessidade de melhores características de serviço é contínua, surgiram as redes ópticas passivas de próxima geração. As NG-PONs prometem satisfazer as exigências dos novos serviços, garantindo melhor qualidade de serviço global que os seus antecessores. Neste trabalho as recomendações do ITU-T e do IEEE são estudadas e apresentadas em detalhe e, como corolário, são comparadas por forma a identificar as suas diferenças e semelhanças. Com base nos conhecimentos obtidos, e com o intuito de validar por simulação alguns dos limites impostos pelas normas são feitas várias simulações de uma rede PON, seguindo a norma 10G-EPON. São variados parâmetros como distância da fibra, número máximo de utilizadores e perdas máximas por inserção de forma a poder avaliar o seu efeito e enquadrar com a norma obtida.
Passive Optical networks (PONs) promise to overcome the requirements of users and service providers to achieve higher data rates than conventional cooper Technologies. This work study and present the actual PON technologies, their main features and how they can successfully fulfill the imposed requirements. Several PON recommendations have appeared all over the years and due to ever increasing demand of improved services, PON networks evolved to Next Generation Passive Optical Networks. NG-PONs come to respond to the new quality and demanding services, ensuring better global performance than their antecessors. The ITU-T and IEEE recommendations are studied and presented in detail, and by corollary are compared in order to easily comprehend the differences and similarities between them. Based on the knowledge obtained and with the aim of validate by simulation some of the boundaries imposed by the recommendations, several simulations of a PON network are performed, following the 10G-EPON standard. Parameters like, fiber distance, number of users and maximum insertion loss are changed to evaluate their impact in the PON performance and to frame them in the recommendation.

Abstract:

The motivation of this thesis is to better understand the characteristics of Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers (SOAs) and their use in the Passive Optical Networks (PON), particularly in packet equalisation. Following an introduction to physical principles and structure of SOAs the architecture of optical communication system especially PON is explained. The basic characteristics and key applications of SOAs are then discussed. In this study, the modelling of SOAs has been achieved at both system and device levels. In terms of high efficient system level SOA model, both co-propagation and counter-propagation models are employed to study the cross gain modulation of SOAs. The co-propagation system model has also been used to study the gain compression effect of SOAs. The direct modulation frequency response of a SOA is also investigated numerically. Alternatively, the detailed device level SOA model, which includes a wideband material gain coefficient taking the intraband relaxation effect into account and an efficiency-improved steady state algorithm, is proposed to study the DC characteristics of SOAs. Based on the detailed device level SOA model, the numerical model for the adjustable gain-clamped SOA (AGC-SOA) has been proposed to investigate both the steady state operation and the case where the gain of the AGC-SOA is dynamically modulated. Through theoretical analysis and experimental investigation, this study demonstrated that the gain of AGC-SOA would be dynamically modulated in response to the changes in packet amplitude in PONs.

Abstract:

Initialement poussées par le marché résidentiel, les évolutions du réseau d’accès optique sont aujourd’hui également stimulées par l’expansion du réseau mobile. Comme le montre le premier chapitre de ce document, l’introduction d’un multiplexage en longueur d’onde dense constitue l’une des solutions privilégiées pour permettre la montée en débit dans les réseaux d’accès optique. Dans cette thèse, l’impact de l’introduction du multiplexage en longueur d’onde dense est étudié sous trois axes :• Une prochaine étape de l’évolution des technologies pour les réseaux d’accès passerait par une hybridation entre d’une part, un multiplexage temporel (hérité des précédentes générations), et d’autre part, un multiplexage en longueur d’onde dense. Cette technologie, appelée NGPON2-TWDM, permet aujourd’hui d’envisager des débits de 40Gb/s à 80Gb/s grâce à 4 ou 8 canaux. Les difficultés liées à la stabilité de la longueur d’onde lors de l’émission de données en mode paquet dans le sens montant du lien, ainsi que les solutions associées, sont étudiées dans le second chapitre.• L’importance du marché que représente le réseau d’accès optique (aussi bien pour les clients résidentiels que pour les réseaux mobiles), induit la nécessité pour les différentes générations de technologies de coexister au sein d’une même infrastructure. Du fait des fortes puissances optiques en jeu et des plages spectrales allouées à chaque technologie, cette coexistence peut induire des interactions entre technologies par émission Raman stimulée, dont le principe et les impacts sont décrits dans le troisième chapitre.• Enfin, la quatrième partie de ce document est dédiée à l’étude des limites et potentialités de la technologie self-seeded pour le multiplexage en longueur d’onde dense en bande O, capable de stabiliser automatiquement et passivement la longueur d’onde d’émission de chacun des émetteurs du système
Initially led by the residential market, today’s optical access network evolutions are stimulated by mobile network expansion. As shown in the first chapter of this document, dense wavelength division multiplexing is one of the favorite solutions in order to increase optical access networks throughput. In this thesis, we propose a study of dense wavelength division multiplexing introduction according to three main topics :• Service providers and equipment suppliers have decided that the next step in residential market evolution will consist in a hybridization between, on one hand, a legacy time division multiplexing, and on the other hand, a dense wavelength division multiplexing. Named NG-PON2, this technology allows today 40Gb/s to 80Gb/s thanks to 4 to 8 channel pairs. Wavelength stability of the upstream emitter under burst mode operation, and related solutions, are studied in the second chapter.• Market importance (for both residential market and mobile networks) requires the different technologies generations to coexist on the same infrastructure. Due to the high optical power and the wavelength spans allocated to each technology, this coexistence can lead to technologies interactions by stimulated Raman scattering, as described in the third chapter.• Finally, the fourth part of this document describes the limits and potentialities of the self-seeded emitter technology for O-band dense wavelength division multiplexing, able to automatically and passively self-stabilize the wavelength of each emitter

Abstract:

The last decades, we have witnessed different phenomenology in the telecommunications sector. One of them is the widespread use of the Internet, which has brought a sharp increase in traffic, forcing suppliers to continuously expand the capacity of networks. In the near future, Internet will be composed of long-range highspeed optical networks; a number of wireless networks at the edge; and, in between, several access technologies. Today one of the main problems of the Internet is the bottleneck in the access segment. To address this issue the Passive Optical Networks (PONs) are very likely to succeed, due to their simplicity, low-cost, and increased bandwidth. A PON is made up of fiber optic cabling and passive splitters and couplers that distribute an optical signal to connectors that terminate each fiber segment. Among the different PON technologies, the Ethernet-PON (EPON) is a great alternative to satisfy operator and user needs, due to its cost, flexibility and interoperability with other technologies. One of the most interesting challenges in such technologies relates to the scheduling and allocation of resources in the upstream (shared) channel, i.e., the resource management. The aim of this thesis is to study and evaluate current contributions and propose new efficient solutions to address the resource management issues mainly in EPON. Key issues in this context are future end-user needs, quality of service (QoS) support, energy-saving and optimized service provisioning for real-time and elastic flows. This thesis also identifies research opportunities, issue recommendations and proposes novel mechanisms associated with access networks based on optical fiber technologies.
