Compatibility between coherent reflective burst-mode PON and TWDM-PON physical layers
Abstract:
We discuss the compatibility between reflective PON architectures and the recently defined ITU-T G.989.1 TWDM-PON. Focusing on the upstream, we experimentally demonstrate that, by using burst-mode coherent detection at OLT, reflective PON can achieve the specification target set for TWDM-PON, without requiring precise wavelength accuracy at ONU. Compared to the companion ECOC 2013 paper, we investigate on the differential optical path loss (DOPL) issue, proposing a simple SOA gain control algorithm to achieve reliable transmission for DOPL up to 17 dB.
