Abstract

Passive optical networks are increasingly used for access to the Internet and it is important to understand the performance of future long-reach, multi-channel variants. In this paper we discuss requirements on upstream dynamic wavelength and bandwidth allocation (DWBA) and propose a simple novel algorithm that is considerably more efficient than classical approaches. We demonstrate that the algorithm emulates a multi-server polling system and deduce capacity formulas that are valid for general traffic processes.
