Optimization of the Decision Criterion for Increasing the Bandwidth Utilization by Means of the Novel Effective DBA Algorithm in NG-PON2 Networks

Abstract

In this paper, the reasons for the bandwidth and wavelength utilization in future next-generation passive optical networks are presented, and the possibilities for realization and utilization of extended dynamic wavelength and bandwidth algorithms for the second next-generation passive optical networks (NG-PON2) are analyzed. Next, principles of the effective dynamic bandwidth allocation are introduced in detail, focused on the importance of the decision criterion optimization. To achieve a better bandwidth utilization of dedicated wavelengths in NG-PON2 networks, this paper is focused on the novel effective dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithm with adaptive allocation of wavelengths to optical network units as well as the optimization of the decision criterion. The algorithm and the proposed method are tested and evaluated through simulation with actual traffic data. For analyzing novel extended dynamic wavelength and bandwidth algorithms used for various cases of wavelength allocation in NG-PON2 networks, the effective dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithm analysis is realized in the enhancement of simulation program. Finally, an optimization of the decision criterion defining a minimum bandwidth utilization of the actual wavelength is executed for NG-PON2 networks based on the hybrid time and wavelength division multiplexing technique.
