A novel ECDM-OFDM-PON architecture for next-generation optical access network

Opt Express. 2010 Aug 16;18(17):18347-53. doi: 10.1364/OE.18.018347.

Abstract

This paper proposes a novel architecture for next-generation passive optical network (PON) based on electrical code division multiplexing orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (ECDM-OFDM) access. The feasibility of bidirectional transmission with the same wavelength has been experimentally demonstrated under this architecture. An error-free transmission of two PON channels has been successfully demonstrated in the experiment.
