            Abstract : 
Wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) offers the potential to transport very high bit rates in access systems serving residential and small business customers. In this paper, we present a new scheme that combines the advantages of WDMA and TDMA for a broadband fiber access network, and propose a medium access control (MAC) protocol that can easily realize full service access
