Talk Title: Fiber-Wireless Networks: Architectures, Fabrics, Bandwidth Allocation, and Resource Allocation Algorithms
Abstract: Today, access networking remains the most arduous bottleneck in modern communication networks. The need for covering more users in larger regions with adequate bandwidth is still a laborious challenge. On the most promising solution to address this challenge is to leverage the advantages of wireless and optical technologies. The deployment of hybrid wireless-optical networks, known as fiber-wireless (FiWi) networks, where the optical infrastructure could be terminated at the curb (?ber to the curb—FTTC) or at the building (?ber to the building—FTTB) and wireless access points could expand the broadband access connectivity to the end users has emerged as a viable, advanced infrastructure. This talk endeavors to highlight the most important and promising FiWi solutions. In particular, architectures, implementation solutions, connection options and fabrics, bandwidth allocation schemes, and resource allocation algorithms will be presented in order shed light in this compelling research field. Moreover, some latest research efforts will be introduced giving emphasis to adequate bandwidth distribution in FiWi networks.

Presenter’s Bio: Panagiotis G. Sarigiannidis received the B.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in computer science from the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki, Greece, in 2001 and 2007, respectively. He is currently a Lecturer with the University of Western Macedonia, Kozani, Greece. He has published over 70 papers in international journals, conferences, and book chapters. His research interests include medium access protocols in optical networks, dynamic bandwidth allocation schemes in passive optical networks, scheduling policies in IEEE 802.16 wireless networks, wireless push systems design and optimization, quality of service provisioning in optical and wireless networks, traf?c estimation and prediction via numerical analysis, and design of burst allocation for optical burst switching networks.
