The advantages of Ethernet passive optical network (EPON) are setting it to be a natural ubiquitous solution for the access network. In the upstream direction of EPON, the directional property of the splitter requires that the traffic flow be mitigated to avoid collision. A dynamic bandwidth allocation (DBA) scheme is desirable in optimizing the bandwidth usage further. In this paper, a global priority DBA mechanism is discussed. The mechanism aims to reduce the overall delay while enhancing the throughput and fairness. This study was conducted using MATLAB where it was compared to two other algorithms in the literature. The results show that the delay is reduced up to 59% and the throughput and fairness index are improved up to 10% and 6%, respectively.

Ethernet passive optical network is a point-to-multipoint structure, and an effective media access protocol should be designed for collision avoidance and bandwidth allocation. Most previous researches have aimed to solve the problem using dynamic bandwidth allocation (DBA) algorithms with polling-based schemes. Unfortunately, idle channel time among the polling cycles cannot be overcome efficiently. In this paper, a dual-polling DBA (DP-DBA) algorithm which consists of an interpolling mechanism and an intrapolling mechanism is proposed. The interpolling mechanism helps eliminate the idle time problem while the intrapolling part aggregates the unused bandwidth of the light-loaded users and those due to nondefragmentation of the Ethernet frames of the general users. We also evaluate the performance of the DP-DBA algorithm by a comparison with the interleaved polling with adaptive cycle time (IPACT), the dynamic bandwidth allocation with a modified grant table generation algorithm (DBA2), the Double-Phase Polling (DPP), and the adaptive DBA algorithm with sorting report messages (Sort-DBA) schemes with simulation results. For greater realism with regard to general applications, we also simulate the asymmetric traffic loads at the optical network units (ONUs).The results show that DP-DBA outperforms the other DBA schemes under asymmetric load conditions.

Abstract Hybrid wavelength division multiplexed (WDM)/Time division multiplexed (TDM) virtual passive optical networks (VPONs) are considered to provide cost efficient solutions for ever increasing bandwidth requirements of next generation optical access networks. With the development in technology effective bandwidth assignment has emerged as a major concern area. In this paper a novel heavy load optimized dynamic bandwidth allocation algorithm (HLO-DBA) is proposed for the hybrid WDM/TDM VPONs. Multi point control protocol of Ethernet passive optical network (EPON) is implemented for WDM/TDM VPONs subscribers. The excess bandwidth of lightly loaded subscribers is distributed among heavily loaded users through an efficient mechanism. The proposed technique effectively utilize the idle period between the last transmitted REPORT messages from previous transmission cycle (t-1) to the first GRANT message in the current cycle (t). Optical network units (ONUs) connecting the subscribers are scheduled in such a way so as to reduce the wastage of bandwidth. Performance evaluation of HLO-DBA in terms of quality of service (QOS) metrics like throughput and average delay is done to validate the optimization of the proposed mechanism.
