Abstract:
A simple and low cost method for wavelength control of economical random non-preselected independent ONU sources is shown to increase the number of users in an OFDMA-PON. The method is based on OLT monitoring and thermal tuning control; it has been validated through Monte-Carlo simulations and a probabilistic model. The minimum optical spectral gap between the ONUs wavelengths that guarantees a tolerable amount of optical beat interference has been determined through an experiment.
