Abstract:

The computing network is gradually emerging, and the network architecture is transforming into “device, edge, and cloud”. Among them, the “edge” is closest to the user, which is an important component of network evolution. Providing edge computing capabilities in broadband optical access network and customer premises network has become one of the key research directions. This paper first introduces the computing deployment location and method for supporting edge computing in broadband optical access network and customer premises network. Then, it discusses the key technologies that support edge computing.

Key words: broadband optical access network, optical access network, customer premises network, edge computing
