Conference Object Citation - WoS: 5Centralised Optical Monitoring of Tree-Structured Passive Optical Networks Using a Raman-Assisted Otdr(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2007) Yüksel, Kıvılcım; Letheux, S.; Grillet, A.; Wuilpart, Marc; Giannone, D.; Hancq, J.; Ravet, G.; Mégret, Patrice; 03.05. Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyMonitoring of tree-structured Passive Optical Networks from a central office is difficult to achieve using a standard OTDR. Switchable reflective elements placed at the ONU can help to discriminate between the branches. In parallel, a Raman assisted OTDR is shown to increase the dynamic range of the reflectometry measurement, thus enabling to detect more faults in the network, and especially fibre breaks after the splitter. ©2007 IEEE.
