A MAC protocol used to concentrate ATM user traffic in a Passive Optical Network (PON) with a tree structure has been proposed implemented and evaluated (with analytical and simulation models and also through experiments) within the European research program RACE project R2024. The PON is used as access network in various european ATM National hosts.
