Performance analysis of Gigabit Passive Optical Network with splitting ratio of 1:64

In this paper discusses about performance analysis of Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON) with splitting ratio 1:64. The network topology is simulated using software tool called Optisystem. The transmitter uses a laser components with NRZ modulation scheme and the transmitter power is adjusted to maximum power according to the ITU-T standards. The transmission channel, used a fiber optic cable Single Mode Fiber (SMF) G.652 with a length of 20 km, as maximum length of PON technology, and the cable attenuation of 0.35 dB/km for wavelengths 1310, 1490 nm and 1577 nm. The research concluded that based on link budget, rise time and BER analysis, the performance GPON with 1:64 splitting ratio is not good to be implemented for provide broadband services.
