Abstract :
Investigate the different requirements for OFDMA-PON in downstream and upstream direction. We show an approach to reduce the DSP effort at the ONUs and demonstrate the OFDMA upstream transmission with four individually modulated ONUs with central distribution of the optical carrier and coherent reception at the OLT.
