This chapter presents a comprehensive overview of current deployed and novel proposed protocols and subsystem architectures for passive optical networks. Emphasis is given to link layer techniques that allow resource sharing emphasizing bandwidth utilization or so-called dynamic bandwidth allocation techniques. In the transport layer, methods for ONU remote-seeding and their limitations are described as they allow for cost reduction, which is of paramount importance in the access area.
