[STDS-802-3-EPOC] Burst Markers

[Raanan Ivry <raanan.ivry@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ed,
In your presentation you suggested the use of Burst Markers.
There is another option: All the information (a full map)  about teh burst
timing and frequencies can be sent in a Gate message by the CLT.
 
There are differences between EPON and EPoC which may permit such attitude:
1. Symbol size (EPoC) >> bit size (EPON)
2. There is no such thing as laser on/off time in EPoC
3. CLT-CNU synchronization is not a problem
 
We need to understand:
1. Why we need those Burst Markers
2. What  the penalty (overhead) we are going to pay  is.
