Ethernet passive optical networks (PONs) are an emerging access network technology that provides a low-cost method of deploying optical access lines between a carrier's central office and a customer site. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm of dynamic bandwidth allocation for multimedia services over Ethernet PONs. To implement the suggested dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithm, we present control message formats that handle classified bandwidths in a multi-point control protocol of Ethernet PONs.

This paper proposes a new dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithm for XGPON (10-Gigabit-capable passive optical network). The proposed algorithm uses a common service counter for each service class unlike to the existing algorithms. The unused bandwidth of a service class can be used for other service classes to increase bandwidth utilization. We illustrate examples to show the proposed algorithm is superior to existing algorithms.

In this paper, we propose a new dynamic bandwidth allocation (DBA) algorithm for multimedia services over Ethernet PONs (passive optical networks). The proposed algorithm is composed of a low-level scheduler in the optical network unit (ONU) and a high-level scheduler in the optical line terminal (OLT). The hierarchical DBA algorithm can provide expansibility and efficient resource allocation in an Ethernet PON system in which the packet scheduler is separated from the queues. In the proposed DBA algorithm, the OLT allocates bandwidth to the ONUs in proportion to the weight associated with their class and queue length, while the ONU preferentially allocates its bandwidth to queues with a static priority order. The proposed algorithm provides an efficient resource utilization by reducing the unused remaining bandwidth caused by the variable length of the packets. We also define the service classes and present control message formats conforming to the multi-point control protocol (MPCP) over an Ethernet PON. In order to evaluate the performance, we designed an Ethernet PON system on the basis of IEEE 802.3ah "Ethernet in the first mile" (EFM) using OPNET and carried out simulations. The results are analyzed in terms of the channel utilization, queuing delay, and ratio of the unused remaining bandwidth.

As broadband access is evolving from digital subscriber lines to optical access networks, Ethernet passive optical networks (EPONs) are considered a promising solution for next generation broadband access. The point-to-multipoint topology of EPONs requires a time-division multiple access MAC protocol for upstream transmission. In this paper, we propose a new enhanced dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithm with fairness called EFDBA for multiple services over EPONs. The proposed algorithm is composed of a fairness counter controller and a fairness system buffer in the optical line terminal. The EFDBA algorithm with fairness can provide increased capability and efficient resource allocation in an EPON system. In the proposed EFDBA algorithm, the optical line termination allocates bandwidth to the optical network units in proportion to the fairness weighting counter number associated with their class and queue length. The proposed algorithm provides efficient resource utilization by reducing the unused remaining bandwidth made by idle state optical network units.

In this paper, we design a two-step scheduling algorithm to support multiple bandwidth allocation policies for upstream channel access in an Ethernet passive optical network. The proposed scheduling algorithm allows us a simultaneous approach for multiple access control policies: static bandwidth allocation for guaranteed bandwidth service and dynamic bandwidth allocation for on-demand, dynamic traffic services. In order to reduce the scheduling complexity, we separate the process of the transmission start- time decision from the process of grant generation. This technique does not require the timing information of other bandwidth allocation modules, so respective modules are free from a heavy amount of timing information or complex processing.

This paper proposes a new pipelined dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithm for XG-PON (10-Gbps-capable passive optical network) passive optical networks) system. The pipelined algorithm is used when a dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithm cannot finished in an unit time. In the proposed mechanism, the request is immediately transferred to each pipeline block to improve performance.

A critical issue in implementing efficient Ethernet passive optical network(EPON) System is the bandwidth allocation algorithm. The overall goal of bandwidth allocation is to effectively and fairly perform scheduling of time slots between ONUs in EPON System. We propose a new algorithm of dynamic bandwidth allocation for improved bandwidth efficiency in EPON system.

In this paper we propose the hierarchical-based dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithm for multi-class services in Ethernet-PON. The proposed algorithm consists of the high level scheduler in OLT and the low level scheduler in ONU. The hierarchical architecture is able to provide scalability and resource efficiency in Ethernet-PON which has the distributed nature of the scheduling domain, with queues and the scheduler located at a large distance from each other. We also propose three dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithms for the low level scheduler: Proportional Allocation algorithm, Maximum Request First Allocation (MRFA) algorithm and High Priority First Allocation (HPFA) algorithm. We implement the Ethernet-PON standardized in the IEEE 802,3ah using OPNET. We also evaluate and analyze the performance for the proposed algorithms in terms of channel utilization, queuing delay and the amount of remainder.

Ethernet-based passive optical network(EPON) technology is being considered as a promising solution for next-generation broadband access network. It must have the property of high efficiency, low cost, and support quality of service(QoS). A major feature for this new architecture is the use of a shared transmission media between all connected optical network unit(ONU). Hence, medium access control(MAC) arbitration mechanisms are essential for the successful implementation of EPON. In this paper we propose a simple dynamic bandwidth allocation(DBA) algorithm that improves the performance of network and supports IP-based multimedia applications with the bursty data traffic. In addition, we introduce analytic models of proposed algorithms and prove the system based on our algorithm to be asymptotically stable. Simulation results show the new DBA algorithm provides high bandwidth efficiency and low queueing delay of ONU in EPON.

One of the most important things in EPON(Ethernet Passive Optical Network) is that ONUs(Optical Network Units) have to share a channel in upstream direction. We proposed a new algorithm of Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation using Multiple LLID(Logical Link IDentifier). We show how to allocate bandwidth in Queues for improving performance from Bandwidth using Multiple LLID.
