Abstract :
This paper presents three methods of constructing Ethernet-type passive optical networks. A novel construction of the symmetric optical networks based on a transmissive star structure is presented. Collision detection method used in copper Ethernet networks, CSMA/CD, was slightly modified to accommodate the differences between the passive optical networks and copper network.
