Abstract
An XG-PON (10-Gbps-capable passive optical network) system is comprised of an OLT (optical line termination) and multiple ONUs (optical network units). In general, ONUs report their requests to the OLT and then the OLT performs a dynamic bandwidth allocation operation to allocate non-overlapping transmission slots to ONUs. In this paper, we consider an XG-PON system that ONUs do not report their requests to. The OLT estimates the ONU status by monitoring the upstream bandwidth usage of the ONU. We propose a dynamic bandwidth allocation method for the XG-PON system in which ONUs do not report their reports. The proposed method allocates a bandwidth to an ONU only if the ONU has fully used its upstream slot. Also, the proposed method periodically allocates a probe bandwidth to an ONU to prevent service starvation. Using simulation, we evaluate the performance of the proposed method under balanced and unbalanced traffic.
