摘要：We propose a nonreciprocal filter based on coarse wavelength division multiplexing (CWDM) that reduces the upstream channel insertion loss in a passive optical network (PON). We also propose a method to increase the number of channels/optical network units (ONUs) in PON systems using the proposed filter to reduce the service cost per subscriber. Experimental results show that the PON system with the proposed 4-channel filter can reduce the power budget of the upstream and increase the number of ONUs by 3 to 4 times that of a conventional time-division multiplexing PON.
