A passive optical network (PON) is a point-to-multipoint, fiber to the premises network architecture in which unpowered optical splitters are used to enable a single optical fiber to serve multiple premises, typically 32-128. A PON consists of an Optical Line Termination (OLT) at the service provider s central office and a number of Optical Network Units (ONUs) near end users. A PON configuration reduces the amount of fiber and central office equipment required compared with point to point architectures
This tutorial white-paper illustrates practical aspects of FIR
filter design and fixed-point implementation along with the
algorithms available in the Filter Design Toolbox and the
Signal Processing Toolbox for this purpose.
