Abstract :
The challenges for the current PON standards as well as their future extensions and impairments are studied in this paper. We present a link design for a CWDM/TDM PON that includes 100 ONUs, each with average bit rates of 100 Mbit/s and 25 Mbit/s for downstream and upstream transmission, respectively.
