A new architecture of multiple private networks independent of optical line terminal (OLT) over Ethernet passive optical
network (EPON) using ring topology is proposed. This architecture integrates the multiple private networks (PNs) with
downstream/upstream EPON. Self determining private communications between optical network units (ONUs) are
established using code-drop units. The use of optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) technique results in secure
and reconfigurable PNs in the ring. Each ONU is assigned an appropriate codeword for private network communication
and also the standard equipments for the up/downstream standard EPON communication. As an example, by using
quadratic congruent (QC) codes with (p=5) leads to four optical private networks in the ring. To demonstrate the
integration feasibility of multiple 622 Mb/s PNs over 1.25 Gb/s EPON using QC code-drop units, we analyze the
network architecture by evaluating power budget, network dimensioning and BER performances.
