文摘In order to reduce cost and complexity,fiber-wireless(FiWi) networks emerge,combining the huge amount of available bandwidth of fiber networks and the flexibility,mobility of wireless networks.However,there is still a long way to go before taking fiber and wireless systems as fully integrated networks.In this paper,we propose a network visualization based seamless networking scheme for FiWi networks,including hierarchical model,service model,service implementation and dynamic bandwidth assignment(DBA).Then,we evaluate the performance changes after network virtualization is introduced.Throughput for nodes,bandwidth for links and overheads leaded by network virtualization are analyzed.The performance of our proposed networking scheme is evaluated by simulation and real implementations,respectively.The results show that,compared to traditional networking scheme,our scheme has a better performance.
