ABOUT BOOK

A novel, low power, downstream clock and data recovery (CDR)- decimator architecture is proposed for next generation, energy efficient 10 Gbit/s optical network units (ONUs). The architecture employs a new time division multiplexing bit-interleaving downstream concept for passive optical networks (Bi-PON) allowing early decimation of the incoming data and lowering of the processing speed to the user rate of the ONU, thus reducing the power consumption significantly
