Abstract :
Integrated dynamic bandwidth allocation with an overlap scheme that improves the bandwidth efficiency of aggregated access networks is implemented and demonstrated on the 10 G Ethernet passive optical network (EPON)-based prototype system for the first time. Experiments revealed that the prototype system can achieve more than 99% bandwidth efficiency with only 150 kB aggregation buffers in each optical subscriber unit.
