Passive optical networks are emerging as the main technology for building access networks. The current metropolitan optical communication networks operate at 1Gbps, which appears to be insufficient for the future development and exponential growth of traffic from IP services. The existing various traffic-intensive services and the growing interest in 4K video content and streaming services require the introduction of new solutions within passive optical networks (PON). A promising option is the combination of 10 Gbps and above high-speed data transmission with spectral multiplexing. DWDM will provide the required high spectral efficiency, but in contrast will require the use of a proper modulation scheme to achieve a longer distance. In this paper a model for performance analysis and solving optimization problems for DWDM-PON networks is developed. Different signal modulations are considered and a comparative analysis is performed. The behaviour of the system at different input parameters is modelled. Performance analysis is performed by evaluating the spectral characteristics and values of BER and Q-factor.
