Optimal dynamic subcarrier allocation for dual-band OFDMA-PON supporting integrated fronthaul and backhaul in 5G networks

We propose a novel dynamic subcarrier allocation (DSCA) design for dual-band orthogonal frequency division multiple access passive optical network (DB-OFDMA-PON), supporting integrated fronthaul and backhaul services, given their stringent requirements in emerging 5G networks. An optimization proble...
