Fiber- and FSO-Protected Connections for Long-Reach TWDM Access Architecture With Fault Protection
In this paper, we propose a long-reach star-ring-based timeand wavelength-divisionmultiplexing passive optical network (TWDM-PON) by using fiberand free space optical (FSO)-protected architecture against fiber breakpoint. Here, the new fiber-based and FSO-based optical network unit (ONU) modules are...
