However,most proposed DBA schemes ignore the quality of service(QoS) guarantee on maximum delay and delay jitter for the real-time traffic and the downstream bandwidth utilization under light upstream load in EPON. In this paper,a new DBA scheme,QoS guaranteed adaptive downstream bandwidth utilization(QoS-ADBU),is proposed. This scheme can provide better QoS assurance by determining the maximum transmission cycle time according to the maximum acceptable packet delay and delay jitter for real-time traffic. Besides,the downstream utilization can also be improved by adapting the polling frequency to downstream traffic load.展开更多

文摘Dynamic bandwidth allocation(DBA) is an open and hot topic in the Ethernet passive optical network(EPON) ,which is regarded as one of the best choices for next-generation access networks.
