Abstract :
A novel decentralized algorithm is introduced for the intra-ONU bandwidth allocation in an Ethernet passive optical network (EPON). The algorithm is of low computational complexity, and can guarantee both the priority and fairness of the differentiated services. Simulation results are presented and compared with those of two existing bandwidth allocation algorithms.
