Real-time Demonstration of Softwarized 4-Port 10G-EPON PCS for Fully Virtualized Access Systems

This paper demonstrates real-time 4-port 10G-EPON physical coding sublayer (PCS) softwarization by proposing and implementing multi-port polling. The previous throughput of $8.7 \mathrm{~Gb} / \mathrm{s}$ is increased to $4 \times 8.7 \mathrm{~Gb} / \mathrm{s}$ while maintaining code performance.
