Abstract
WDM based dynamic bandwidth allocation schemes are proposed as potential future-proof upgrade solutions for access PON systems. The schemes represent cost-efficient ways to exploit the virtually unlimited bandwidth afforded by passive optical architectures whilst remaining fully compatible with the IEEE Ethernet standard for the first mile (EFM 802.3ah).
