However, with the development, the security issue became a public concern. Under the environment of access network, customers, access equipment and networks all face various threats, especially those from the user side. Such technologies and solutions as port positioning, fraud prevention on Medium Access Control (MAC) addresses and monitoring of illegal services might be the solution to the security problem existing in the current networks.展开更多

As a first step to develop an ASIC product, the entire system is designed on a field programmable gate array （FPGA） with an embedded CPU. To reduce working frequency of the FPGA, the byte-to-word conversion is proposed. Propagation delays are equalized by ranging procedure so as to avoid data collision. Implementations of synchronization, classification, as well as Linux porting are illustrated in detail. The interface between the FPGA and CPU are also presented. Experimental results show that the proposed system can properly function in a relatively low cost FPGA.展开更多

Both full-duplex EPON system and half-duplex EPON system using CSMA/CD were proposed. In the full-duplex EPON, CSMA/CD is used as the upstream MAC protocol. In the half-duplex EPON system, both upstream and downstream traffic contend for the optical channel through CSMA/CD protocol. The upstream lightwave redirection and collision detection techniques were given. By the analysis and simulation, the throughput performance of the half-duplex EPON system is proven to be as well as that of the existing high speed half-duplex Ethernet LAN.展开更多

Moreover, it is compatible with the protocol used by the existing Ethernet controllers for conventional datagram traffic and thus standard Ethernet stations can be used in the system without any modification. The paper describes the protocol in detail and analyses the maximum delivery delay for real time traffic and the efficiency of the channel.展开更多

It is a new research direction and expected to enhance the normal EPON performances. The purpose of this article is to review the state-of -the-art solutions to emulating optical local area networks （OLANs） over EPON. We discuss the major problems involved, e.g., network architecture, control mechanisms, and other potential enhancements. We also outline areas for future researches.展开更多
