Abstract
Passive optical networks (PONs) use dynamic bandwidth allocation (DBA) algorithms to assign upstream bandwidth for different types of traffic to transmission containers (T-CONTs) used by optical network units (ONUs). In this paper, we show that the performance of a PON DBA algorithm that incorporates a colorless grant can ensure that the average upstream delay and delay distribution of T-CONT frames fall within the latency requirements for different traffic types in an xHaul transport network. We evaluate the performance of two deployment scenarios for a 10-Gigabit-capable PON (XGS-PON) system using the OMNeT++ network simulator. The simulation results show that, when the delay distribution of frames is analyzed, more than 99% of fronthaul traffic at 80% load in both scenarios are below the 250 μs latency requirement. Overall, the results indicate that the latency requirements of fronthaul traffic can be met by over-allocating bandwidth to it relative to other types of traffic in the network.
