Methods and systems for controlling power fluctuations in a network including a plurality of nodes are disclosed. A node in the network may be configured to modify power levels in accordance with either an active state or an inactive state. The node may transition to an inactive state in response to a power change that exceeds a power change threshold. The role of the node in controlling the power fluctuation in the network is reduced in the inactive state.

Implementations of the present principles include methods, systems and apparatuses for transmitting data through a sub-carrier multiplexing and orthogonal frequency-division multiple access passive optical network. In accordance with aspects of the present principles, a plurality of optical network units are assigned electrical carrier frequency bandwidths that are narrower than a system capacity bandwidth. Modulation of optical waves transmitted between an optical line terminal and each optical network unit is conducted on different orthogonal sub-carrier frequencies within the assigned bandwidths such that sampling of said orthogonal sub-carrier frequencies is limited to the assigned electrical carrier frequency bandwidths. The waves are thereafter received and demodulated for the extraction of data.

A tunable asymmetric interleaver constructed from two symmetric interleavers in series, wherein either or both of the individual symmetric interleavers exhibit a wavelength shifting ability. Advantageously, tunable asymmetric interleavers so constructed provide continuous tunable interleaving ratios from 0:100 to 50:50 to 100:0 and provide attractive upgrade paths for existing and future DWDM networks and applications.

Systems and methods are disclosed for communicating data in an integrated sensor network having one or more nodes coupled to an optical sensor network and a radio frequency wireless sensor network, each node having an optical link and a wireless link. The method includes determining a transmission path having one or more hybrid hops for packet transmission over the optical sensor network and the radio frequency wireless sensor network, each hybrid hop including optical and wireless links between two neighboring nodes; and selecting a set of optical and wireless links for the optical sensor network and the radio frequency wireless sensor network to minimize contiguous wireless links.

Each of a plurality of data flows is classified as having a respective data flow type, and each data flow is assigned to one of a plurality of subcarrier groups, based on the data flow's type, wherein each subcarrier group comprises a respective plurality of subcarriers. First data flows assigned to a first subcarrier group are transmitted exclusively on respective subcarriers in the first subcarrier group, and second data flows assigned to a second subcarrier group are transmitted together on all of the subcarriers in the second subcarrier group.

A receiver and method are provided. The receiver includes a detector configured to receive polarization multiplexed coded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing input sequences and generate estimates of unknown transmitted symbols in the input sequences for x- and y-polarization channels with respect to laser phase noise and PMD. A demapper coupled to the detector is configured to partially cancel polarization mode dispersion (PMD) in the input sequences by computing symbol probabilities for the estimates with respect to the laser phase noise, and averaging the symbol probabilities with respect to the laser phase noise. One or more low-density parity-check (LDPC) decoders coupled to the demapper are configured to receive bit probabilities derived from the averaged symbol probabilities and output code words based at least on the bit probabilities. The one or more LDPC decoders iteratively provide extrinsic soft information feedback to the demapper to compensate for the PMD.
