Fibre to the home (FTTH) in KOREA has grown rapidly in recent years. The number of FTTH subscribers exceeded 6.6 millions by end of DEC 2008. It seems that FTTH has moved from the initial, the growth stage to the mature stage. Some design techniques have been developed in order to construct the access network effectively for the mature stage. This paper deal with design, construction and maintenance of optical fibre access networks immediately, effectively and economically.

An optical fiber code-division multiple-access (CDMA) network is proposed in which encoding is based on the use of concatenated sequences of relatively large weight. The first short component sequence in the concatenated sequence permits realistic electronic encoding of each data bit. The chips of this sequence are then all-optically encoded at substantially higher rate. In spite of the relatively large weight of the sequence the all-optical encoder is practical by virtue of the shortness of the component sequences. The use of Gold and Lempel sequences as component sequences for generating the concatenated sequences is studied and the bit-error rate (BER) performance of the proposed system is presented as a function of the received optical power with the number of simultaneous users as parameter.

본 논문에서는 유무선 통합을 위한 광대역 액세스 망의 연결을 지원하는 파장 분할 다중화 (Wavelength Division Multiplexing; WDM) 메트로(metro) 망을 위한 노드 구조를 제안한다. 또한 노드 구조의 기능과 망 요구 사항을 고려한 매체 접근 제어 (Medium Access Control; MAC) 프로토콜을 제안하고 성능을 비교, 평가한다. 광통신 백본 망과 액세스 망사이의 병목현상을 해결하기 위하여 WDM 서브 캐리어 다중화 기술, 광소자 기술 등을 살펴보고 고비용 자원에 해당하는 파장 채널의 공유를 위한 액세스 노드 구조를 제안한다. 또한 제안된 기능 모델을 이용하여 기존 SS (Source-Stripping) MAC 프로토콜을 분석하고 슬롯 재사용성을 높이기 위한 DS+SS (Destination-Stripping and Source-Stripping)와 DS+IS(Destination-Stripping and Intermediate-Stripping) MAC 프로토콜을 제시한다. 제안된 프로토콜은 다른 파장 그룹의 목적지 노드로 슬롯이 전송되는 경우에 목적지에 따라서 슬롯의 제거를 중간 액세스 노드나 근원지 노드에서 수행한다. 따라서 전송된 슬롯의 불필요한 망 순환을 줄임으로써 슬롯 재사용성이 증가한다. 슬롯 재사용성에 의한 대역 효율성과 노드의 최대 처리율을 예측하기 위하여 수치적 분석을 수행하며 네트워크 시뮬레이션을 통하여 처리율 검증과 전송 지연, 전송 공정성 등의 다양한 성능 파라미터를 기존 프로토콜과 비교 평가한다.

This paper proposes an optical wireless transfer agent method which realizes the continuous and swift data transfer of optical wireless terminals in optical wireless networks. The unguided wireless channel generally shows frequent link disconnections and propagation delays due to weak wireless links. Specially speaking, optical wireless channels have more vulnerable links and roaming propagation delays relative to the weakness of the previous RF channels due to their low signal connectivity and small geographic coverage. Conventional optical wireless network protocols did not consider any fault models about physical link faults. Consequently, they have shown data transfer inefficiency for both data link control and physical wireless link control. To overcome these optical wireless environmental problems, this paper suggests a new wireless access point (or base station) agent system, which provides wireless or mobile clients with previous link layer protocols compensated.

본 논문에서는 IPOW(IP over WDM) 서비스를 위한 광가입자망의 구조설계에 관한 새로운 아이디어를 제공한다. IP 데이터를 중간계층을 거치지 않고 직접 WDM망을 통해 처리함으로써 보다 효율적으로 망을 구성할 수 있다. 파장단위로 하는 레이블 스위칭 방식을 기반으로 한 IPOW 광인터넷 기술을 이용하여 대용량 트래픽 전달 능력과 레이블 스위칭의 QoS 제공 기능을 네트워크 종단 사용자에게 직접적으로 제공한다. 또한 가입자 요구에 따라 액세스 밴드폭을 유동적으로 지원하는 AON(Active Optical Network) 형태의 광가입자망의 기능도 갖고 있다. 여기에서 제안한 IPOW 기반의 광액세스 네트워크는 시뮬레이션을 통하여 가입자망에 걸려 있는 끝단에서 BER(Bits Error Ratio) 특성을 분석하여 효율적인 광 가입자망의 설계 기준을 제시한다.

In this paper, we propose an unequal protection physical coding sub-layer (PCS) forward error correction (FEC) scheme for efficient and high-quality transmission of video data over optical access networks. Through identifying and resolving the unequal importance of different video frames and passing this importance information from MAC-layer to PCS, FEC scheme of PCS can be adaptive to application-layer data. Meanwhile, we jointly consider the different channel situations of optical network unit (ONU) and improve the efficiency of FEC redundancy by channel adaptation. We develop a theoretical algorithm and a hardware method to achieve efficient FEC assignment for the proposed unequal protection scheme. The theoretical FEC assignment algorithm is to obtain the optimal FEC redundancy allocation vector that results in the optimum performance index, namely frame error rate, based on the identified differential importance and channel situations. The hardware method aims at providing a realistic technical path with negligible hardware cost increment compared with the traditional FEC scheme. From the simulation results, the proposed Channel and Application-layer data Adaptation Unequal Protection (CAAUP) FEC scheme along with the FEC ratio assignment algorithm and the hardware method illustrates the ability of efficient and high-quality transmission of video data against the random errors in the channel of optical access networks.

One of the most innovative paradigms for the next-generation of wireless cellular networks is the cloud-radio access networks (C-RANs). In C-RANs, base station functions are distributed between the remote radio heads (RHHs) and base band unit (BBU) pool, and a communication link is defined between them which is referred as the fronthaul. This leveraging link is expected to reduce the CAPEX (capital expenditure) and OPEX (operating expense) of envisioned cellular architectures as well as improves the spectral and energy efficiencies, provides the high scalability, and efficient mobility management capabilities. The fronthaul link carries the baseband signals between the RRHs and BBU pool using the digital radio over fiber (RoF) based common public radio interface (CPRI). CPRI based optical links imposed stringent synchronization, latency and throughput requirements on the fronthaul. As a result, fronthaul becomes a hinder in commercial deployments of C-RANs and is seen as one of a major bottleneck for backbone networks. The optimization of fronthaul is still a challenging issue and requires further exploration at industrial and academic levels. This paper comprehensively summarized the current challenges and requirements of fronthaul networks, and discusses the recently proposed system architectures, virtualization techniques, key transport technologies and compression schemes to carry the time-sensitive traffic in fronthaul networks.

PONs (passive optical networks)은 운영 비용이 저렴하고 높은 대역폭을 제공하기 때문에 가입자 망에서 각광을 받고 있다. TDM (time-division multiplexing) PON은 단일 채널을 사용하기 때문에 UHD (ultra high-definition) IP TV, VOD (video on demand) 등과 같은 새로운 유형의 광대역 서비스에 대해서 충분한 대역폭을 제공하지 못하고 있다. WDM (wavelength-division multiplexing)와 TDM을 결합한 TWDM PON이 가입자망에서의 새로운 해답으로 여겨지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 TWDM PON에 대한 새로운 MAC (media access control) protocol을 제안한다.

The advantages of using analogue optical networks for delivering radio signals from a central location to many remote antenna sites have been recognized. In a telecommnications context, radio signals may be for fixed radio access, cordless or mobile networks, but the same principles apply. By making use of the high bandwidth, low loss characteristics of optical fiber, all high frequency and signal processing functions can be performed centrally and signals can then be transported over the optical network directly at the carrier frequency. The remote sites then become very simple, requiring only optoelectronic conversion, filtering and linear amplification. This shifting of the complex functionality away from the remote site allow cheap, reliable, small and light-weight radio access points with low power consumption to be deployed. In this paper, we show that an electroabsorption modulation(EAM) may be used as a single component in such a radio access point, as a passive transceiver for small-sized cell(picocells).
