Abstract
Here we proposed a novel architecture of wavelength division multiplexed-passive optical network (WDM-PON) in which the downlink unicast data, broadcast data and uplink unicast data transmission is possible with the symmetric data rate of 10Gbps. At remote node (RN) cyclic wavelength routing property of array waveguide grating (AWG) and power splitting capacity of power splitter is used in the architecture so that broadcast channel can be overlaid on downlink unicast channels. At ONU carriers sent from central office (CO) is reused for upstream data transmission with the help of integration of a reflective semiconductor amplifier (RSOA) and an electro-absorption modulator (EAM) so there is no need of extra laser sources at ONUs which makes them colorless. EAM can be operated at very high speed; a modulation bandwidth of tens of GHz can be achieved. Broadcast channel causes a limited interference with downlink and uplink unicast channels so it does not affect the system performance. Since each channel has different wavelength so NRZ data is used which eliminates expensive DPSK receivers and detection becomes very easy. Simulation is performed with all channels having data rate of 10Gbps having acceptable performance.
