ABSTRACT
With the emerging applications and needs of ever-increasing bandwidth, it is anticipated that the
next-generation broadband passive optical network with much higher bandwidth is a natural path
forward to satisfy these demands. For network operators, it is therefore interesting and protable to
develop this scenario of valuable access networks. Broadband passive optical networks utilize the
optical transmission medium, and for increasing transmission rates of broadband applications and
services, it is necessary to characterize and investigate some ...
