Several related technologies, such as upstream signal power equalization, fiber access network with self-healing functions, OFDM-based PON and carrier distributed WDM-PON have been studied by ITRI and NCTU. Introduction Recently, because of demand from high data rate triple-play services, the deployment of fiber to the home (FTTH) and the related standardizations are becoming increasingly important. At the end of 2006, there were 4.55 million broadband Internet accounts in Taiwan, for an impressive penetration rate of 78.72% [1]. Of these, 87% used DSL, 8% used cable modem, 4% were on a fiber optic line, and the remainder used leased lines to access the Internet. According to the World Broadband Statistics 2006 Q2 report by Point Topic, Taiwan ranked third in DSL penetration of phone lines at 29.3%, just behind France and Finland. In terms of DSL accounts, Taiwan ranked 10th with 3,835,000 users. These statistics confirm Taiwan's commitment to creating a worldclass communication environment for high quality e-services available at home, office, school and in the community or on the move. Broadband Internet infrastructure development programs were initially introduced in the government's Knowledge Economy Project, National Information Infrastructure (NII) Promotion Program and e-taiwan Program. Thereafter, the Broadband Duct Construction Project was established in 2003 to facilitate the creation of a seamless broadband Internet environment, encourage fair competition, and promote the telecommunications and digital content industries. Later the M- Taiwan (Mobile Taiwan) Program was introduced with the aim of building an environment for wireless broadband applications and to provide users with unfettered e-services. Under the M-Taiwan Program, NTD30 billion has been allocated for the Broadband Duct Construction Project, which aims to eventually build 6,000 kilometers of broadband pipeline across the island. These public ducts will be leased to telecommunications operators for the deployment of broadband Internet (such as optic fiber) networks. This will greatly improve the bandwidth and quality of last mile connectivity in Taiwan. Passive optical networks (PON) are considered as a promising candidate for FTTH to overcome the last mile bottleneck in broadband optical access network [2], [3]. Time division multiplexing PON (TDM-PON) systems such as Ethernet PON (EPON) and Gigabit PON (GPON) have already been standardized [4], [5]. They are currently operating at the nominal line rates of 1.25 Gbit/s and 2.5 Gbit/s for EPON and GPON, respectively. In Taiwan, the M-Taiwan project was advanced by the government to supply the broadband access. Chunghua Telecom Co. Ltd. will lend an impetus to provide FTTH from 2007 to Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) not only develops GPON system for commercial applications, but also works closely with the National Chiao Tung University (NCTU) on PON related research to provide the best choice and solution for FTTH. In this paper we introduce several technologies for PON applications, including the upstream power equalization for high speed TDM-PON, self protection PON system against fiber cut, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)- based PON and carrier distributed wavelength division multiplexing PON (WDM-PON) [6-10]. Technical Research We proposed a cost-effective power-equalized technique for GPON using a Fabry-Perot laser diode (FP-LD) to serve as a power equalizer, as illustrated in Figure 1. The equalizer consisted of an optical circulator (OC) and FP-LD connecting the receiver (Rx) in the optical line terminal (OLT). The upstream Figure 1 Proposed power equalizer in GPON to equalize the entire uplink power of each ONU. The equalizer is integrated in the OLT. April 2008 IEEE LEOS NEWSLETTER 15

2 Received Upstream Power (dbm) I bias = 9 ma Input Upstream Power (dbm) Figure 2 Received average output power of the proposed equalizer versus different upstream injection powers from -1.5 to -25 dbm. Figure 3 The data traffics of the proposed self-protecting ringbased PON with four ONUs in normal state. Figure 4 The proposed combiner in OLT to control the transmitted direction of downstream signal, when the direction of OS is set to (a) the 1 point and (b) 2 point. signals from LD-2 will pass through the 1310/1490 nm WDM coupler and OC into the proposed equalizer (LD-1) to equalize the power level. The operating bias current (Ib) of LD-1 was set at 9 ma, which was less than the threshold current (Ith). When upstream signals of power ranging from -1.5 to -25 dbm were injected into the LD-1, the output power only varied from -11 to dbm, as shown in Figure 2. This is because the high injection upstream signal will be absorbed while the low power signal will be amplified by the slightly under biased FP-LD inside the equalizer. A novel self-protecting architecture for a ring-based PON to prevent fiber failure in a single-path was proposed and demonstrated. Assuming the proposed self-healing architecture system has four optical networking units (ONUs), as shown in Figure 3. The downstream signal of OLT was transmitted through the path a (in clockwise) without any fiber failure (in normal state). As illustrated in Figure 4, the OLT can determine two different transmission paths for data traffics by the proposed combiner integrating in the OLT. The proposed combiner consisted of two 1 2 optical couplers (CPRs) and a 1 2 optical switch (OS). The switching direction of OS can be controlled by the media access control (MAC). In normal state, the OS was placed at point 1 for the downstream traffic through the fiber path, a as shown in Figure 4(a). Figure 5 presents the proposed ONU with bidirectional function to access the downstream and upstream links. Physical layer of each ONU was constructed by a 2 2 CPR and two line terminations (LTs). The upstream traffic will be transmitted from the LT(1) through path a (counterclockwise) without any fiber failure. LT(0) of ONU was prepared against the fiber failure. When a fiber fault occurs between ONU2 and ONU3, then the data traffics of ONU3 and ONU4 cannot link with the OLT. At this time, the two unreachable ONUs will start driving the LT(0) to reconnect the data links simultaneously. And the OLT will switch the direction of OS to the 2 point by MAC, as shown in Figure 4(b). Then, the downstream signal will be separated to pass through the a (clockwise) and b paths (counterclockwise) simultaneously. As a result, the data links from OLT to ONU1 and ONU2 were routed through the a path (counterclockwise), and the ONU3 and ONU4 were routed through the b path (clockwise). This restorable time was achieved within 7 ms in the proposed access network. When the fiber failure is restored, the operation mechanism of PON system will be restored. Beside, before the transmission failure (normal state), this downstream signal was passed the a path. However, in case of fiber cut, it is no longer possible to receive the upstream signals behind the fault point. Thus, this downstream signal was split and transmitted through the a and b paths by switching the direction of OS to 2 point, simultaneously. Bit error rate (BER) performance was measured by a 1.25 Gbit/s non-return-to-zero (NRZ) pseudo random binary sequence (PRBS) with a pattern length of for the downstream and 16 IEEE LEOS NEWSLETTER April 2008

3 upstream traffic between the OLT and ONU4 through a (without protection) and b (with protection, fault between ONU3 and ONU4) paths. The output power of 1490 and 1310 nm transmitters were 2 and 2.5 dbm, respectively. Figures. 6(a) and 6(b) show the measured downstream and upstream BERs in the self-protected ring-based PON against the received power through a and b paths between OLT and ONU4. The observed optical power penalties were smaller than ~0.2 db. We conducted a trial experiment of a new modulation format on the FTTH access networks and presented an OFDMbased 4 Gbit/s PON system that only use 1 GHz components in 2007, as shown in Figure 7. The study showed that the OFDM s inherent frequency domain equalizer can compensate the frequency response ripple. Besides, the high spectral efficiency quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) format can be encoded on the subcarriers in OFDM signal, so the bandwidth requirements of optoelectronics are greatly reduced. In the study, we demonstrated that the wideband 4 Gbit/s 16-QAM encoded OFDM signal can be transported in optical access networks with low cost 1 Gbit/s grade optical components. The transmission BER was less than 10-9 after 20 km fiber transmission and the power budget was 19 db, as shown in Figure 8. The data rate and power budget can be further enhanced if forward error correction (FEC) were adopted. Since > 2 GHz high-resolution data converters become commercially available recently, the OFDM signal is a practical candidate for upgrading optical access networks in the near future. One great challenge in the WDM-PONs is the transmitter at the ONU, located in the customer premises, which must have a wavelength that is precisely aligned with a specifically allocated WDM grid wavelength. A cost-effective solution would ideally employ the same components in each ONU, which should thus be independent of the wavelength assigned by the network or colorless. Although the carrier distributed WDM-PONs have many attractive features, a key issue that needs to be addressed is how best to control the impairments that can arise from optical beat noise induced by back-reflections and Rayleigh backscattering (RB) of the optical carrier at the upstream Rx at the head-end office. Figure 9 shows the two dominant contributions to the RB in carrier distributed PONs, which interfere with the upstream signal at the Rx. The first contribution, Carrier-RB, is generated by the backscatter of the CW carrier being delivered to the RONU. The second contribution, Signal-RB, is generated by the modulated upstream signal at the output of the RONU. Backscattered light from this upstream signal re-enters the RONU, where it is re-modulated and reflected towards the Rx. The Carrier-RB has the same spectrum as the CW carrier, while the Signal-RB is modulated twice by the RONU and has a broader spectrum. Theoretical and experimental characterization of the two RB components have been performed. For efficient RB mitigation, it is important to minimize the spectral overlap between the upstream signal and both types of RB, ensuring that the majority of the frequency components of the resultant electrical beat noise fall outside the Rx bandwidth. Advanced modulation schemes to mitigate RB interferometric beat noise have been also proposed and demonstrated. Recently, we applied the 4 Gbit/s 16-QAM encoded OFDM signal into an electro-absorption modulator (EAM)-based ONU. The performance of the signal was analyzed. Figure 10(a) and (b) show the radio frequency (RF) spectrum of the 16 subcarrier optical OFDM signal detected at the output of the ONU and the constellation diagram after propagating through 100 km single mode fiber without any dispersion compensation, respectively. The optically pre-amplifier Rx sensitivity was -22 dbm at the BER of 10-9 with 100 km fiber transmission. Figure 5 The proposed ONU module with the bidirectional function.
