Description
Passive optical network (PON) technologies have become an important broadband access technology as a result of the growing demand for
bandwidth-hungry video-on-demand applications. Written by the leading researchers and industry experts in the field, this book provides
coherent coverage of networking technologies, fiber optic transmission technologies, as well as the electronics involved in PON system
development.
Features:
* An in-depth overview of PON technologies and the potential applications that they enable
* Comprehensive review
of all major PON standards and architecture evolutions, as well as their pros and cons
* Balanced coverage of recent research findings
with economic and engineering considerations
* Presents system issues of protocols, performance, management and protection
* Extensive
references to standards and research materials for further studies
This book provides an authoritative overview of PON technologies
and system requirements and is ideal for engineers and managers in industry, university researchers, and graduate students.
Audience
Engineers of PON system vendors and service providers; Researchers and graduate students; Optoelectronic component vendors; Managers and executives working with PON technologies
