Protection of Passive Optical Networks by Using Ring Topology and Tunable Splitters

This article proposes an innovative method for protecting of passive optical networks (PONs), especially the central optical unit – optical line termination (OLT). PON networks are typically used in modern high-speed access networks, but there are also several specific applications, such as in busin...
