Abstract :
A flexible TWDM PON system is proposed which allows pay-as-you-grow deployment of OLT transceiver modules, supports load balancing among different ODNs and achieves significant power saving at OLT. A proof-of-concept experimental testbed confirms the feasibility of the proposed system with 40Gb/s symmetric capacity and more than 38 dB power budget.
