Optical OFDMA with dynamic sub-carrier allocation enabled flexible and scalable metro-access integrated networks

We demonstrate a novel OFDMA-based metro-access integrated network with dynamic subcarrier allocation. This system transparently integrates metropolitan area network and optical access network, by implementing scalable ring network, flexible power distribution and on-demand resource allocation.
