  Abstract

In this paper, we propose a hybrid two-stage AWG-based WDM-PON architecture in order to overcome the limitations of the existing PONs and single AWG-based WDM-PONs as well as to accomodate the new services and the expandability of network. The proposed architecture employs two-stage AWG for downstream transmission and single AWG and combiners for upstream one at RN. It also employs the separated fiber with multi-wavelength for both direction. It leads to high scalability, low cost, and high capacity for transmission. In downstream transmission, the transparency can be guaranteed since the traffic is transmitted to ONU through each channel. However, several ONUs share the channel for upstream one by using WDM/TDMA scheme because the asymmetrical feature of networks is considered. The performance of the proposed one is evaluated and compared with other architectures in terms of cost, network capacity and up/downstream bandwidth.
