Multi-way Protection Scheme to Handle Multiple Failures for Cost-Efficient Fiber-Wireless (FiWi) Access Networks
Abstract: AbstractFiber Wireless (FiWi) access networks prove themselves as promising broadband access networks. These networks enable users to access services in “Anywhere-Anytime” fashion. FiWi networks offer higher bandwidth and better flexibility at much lower price than passive optical network. As FiWi supports high data rate (typically about Gigabits per second), any failure may results in huge data loss. Therefore, to protect such loss of data, we need to design a more …
