In this paper, we develope the simulation model for Ethernet passive optical networks (Ethernet-PON) by using OPNET. Ethernet-PON is an emerging access network technology that provides a low-cost method of deploying optical access lines. The simulator uses a Request/Grant TDMA MAC protocol based on IEEE 802.3ah EFM. It also executes registration, ranging and dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithm by exchanging control packets between OLT and ONUs. We have evaluated for success ratio of initial registration process and delay of late registration process. We also have simulated for dynamic TDMA protocol and static TDMA protocol in terms of channel utilization and queueing delay. We expect that this simulator can help to determine various parameters which are considered for designing Ethernet-PON system.

This paper presents a design and implementation of 10gigabit ethernet frame multiplexer/demultiplexer. In this paper, we discuss gigabit and 10 gigabit ethernet standard interfaces(GMII/XGMII) and we propose multiple gigabit ethernet frame multiplexing/demultiplexing scheme to handle 10gigabit ethernet frame instead of using 10gigabit network processor. And then 10gigabit ethernet frame MUX/DMUX is designed, verified and implemented using FPGA.

In this paper, the packet voice protocol for the transmission of voice signal onto ethernet is implemented in a personal computer (PC). The packet voice protocol used is a modified one from CCITT G.764 packetized voice protocol. The hardware system to facilitate the voice communication onto ethernet is divided into telephone interface, speech processing, PC interface and controllers. The software structure of the protocol is designed according to the OSI seven layer architecture and is divided into three routines : ethernet device driver, telephone interface, and processing routine of the packet voice protocol. Experiments through ethernet with telephone interface show that this packet voice communication achieves satisfactory quality when the network traffic is light.

The G-PON is an efficient solution to implement the FTTH and have GEM frame to accomodate various protocols like Ethernet frames, IP packets, and TDM signals. Above all, the Ethernet is one of the most widely used 2nd layer protocol in the campus, the subscriber access, and the carrier service. So G-PON system has to provide an Ethernet interface with top priority. In this paper, we implement a gigabit Ethernet adapter based on Ethernet over GEM in the ITU-T G.984.3 to accommodate Ethernet protocol in the G-PON TC chip. The adapter maps each Ethernet frame to a single or multiple GEM frames and has several functions including generation of the GEM header, encapsulation of frames and the SAR. In particular, the adapter have converter (LUT) MAC address to port-ID which is a key to identify logical connections though it is not defined in specification but important. We implement the adapter with a FPGA and verify the functions of segmentation and reassembling, MAC address learning, and throughput with the logic analyzer and the Ethernet analyzer.

Most of the existing legacy DSL networks, about 80 million lines world-widely, adopted ‘ATM(Asynchronous Transfer Mode) over DSL’protocol architecture for the effective interworking with the ATM-based regional backbone networks and for the effective support of native ATM-based multimedia application services. Recently, however, the regional backbone networks are moving towards Metro Ethernet networks, instead of the ATM networks, and most of the current multimedia applications are If-based, not native ATM-based. These environmental changes push the architecture of DSL networks to be accordingly changed, and the‘Ethernet over DSL’protocol architecture, instead of existing‘ATM over DSL’, is tried to be applied to the implementation of next generation DSL networks such as VDSL(Very high-rate DSL) . In this paper, we propose two different implementation models for next generation DSL networks in Metro Ethernet backbone environments, respectively EA(Ethernet-to-ATM) implementation model and RE(Ethernet-to-Ethernet) implementation model. And, a comparative analysis focused on the performance and the backward compatability with the legacy DSL networks will be presented.

In this paper, we have designed and implemented the integrated protocol gateway for the integration of CAN and Profibus networks. To do that, we used the Switched Ethernet as Backbone network, and each fieldbus network is connected by CAN/Ethernet or Profibus/Ethernet gateway, and each gateway perform the translation between fieldbus and Ethernet frames. Futhermore, we realized the real-time features in the environment of the Switched Ethernet by applying the distributed hard real-time scheduling algorithm among each gateways. To implement tht CAN/Ethernet and Profibus/Ethernet gateways, we used the Linux of kernel 2.6.31.12 real-time patched version(PREEMTED_RT), and we could verify successful message translation and real-time features through real implementation.

Reliability is absolutely necessary in most recent mission critical systems which usually utilize the Ethernet based computer networks. A typical way to increase system reliability is to equip the fault tolerant Ethernet. In this paper we try to formulate the fault tolerant dual Ethernet concept and presents a comparison of its implementation approaches. Two types of dual Ethernet configuration are analyzed; the divided and the connected. Then the characteristics of three current implementation approaches which are the hardware based, the software based, and the recently proposed hybrid approach are compared. The results show that the hardware based or the hybrid approaches can be a better solution for the real time mission critical systems. Also for the systems which require the use of Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) hardware for fault tolerant Ethernet the possible choice is the software based or the hybrid approach.

This paper deals with the design and implementation of an Ethernet-based communication protocol to be used in PC-based I/O interface systems. Recently, the performance of PC systems is being highly improved and Ethernet is used as the stable communication network over the world. We develop a new protocol driver with the capability of accessing Ethernet directly using NDIS(Network Driver Interface Specification), the network interface standard of Windows O.S. in PC, and install it at the application layer of the protocol structure. Its major roles are the supplement of CSMA/CD algorithm, the effective use of the long data frame of Ethernet, and the real-time transmission of data frames. This paper represents the possibility of the real-time control network and systems based on PCs and Ethernet.

Ethernet PON(Passive Optical Network)의 핵심 기술 충의 하나인 MAC(Media Access Control) 프로토콜은 ONU(Optical Network Unit)들이 상향으로 트래픽을 전송할 때 공유되어 있는 링크상의 충돌을 방지하고, 효율적인 대역폭을 할당하기 위만 스케줄링 알고리즘을 포함하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 차세대 가입자 망인 Ethernet PON의 성능을 최대화하기 위해, 가입자 망의 특성을 고려만 동적 슬롯 할당 TDHA(Time Division Multiple Access) 방식의 MAC 프로토콜을 제안한단. 이를 검증하기 위하여 OPNET 시뮬레이션 도구를 이용해 Ethernet PON 모델을 설계하고 시뮬레이션 한다.
