Protection Route Mechanism for Survivability in FTTH-PON Network

This paper described the proposed protection route mechanism and simulation of protection mechanism model in order to achieve survivability in PON-FTTH. Due to large transport capacity achieved by the network, failures which occur cause huge losses of data and greatly influence upon a large number of users over a wide area. Therefore, the survivability of the whole network has to be examined more seriously. Then the smart and intelligent system of FTTH is expected to be a key element which provides centralized monitoring, survivability and instantly maintenance of FTTH customer access network.
