Fiber-Wireless (FiWi) network is the future network configuration that uses optical fiber as backbone transmission media and enables wireless network for the end user. Our study focuses on the Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA) algorithm for EPON upstream transmission. DBA, if designed properly, can dramatically improve the packet transmission delay and overall bandwidth utilization. With new DBA components coming out in research, a comprehensive study of DBA is conducted in this thesis, adding in Double Phase Polling coupled with novel Limited with Share credits Excess distribution method. By conducting a series simulation of DBAs using different components, we found out that grant sizing has the strongest impact on average packet delay and grant scheduling also has a significant impact on the average packet delay; grant scheduling has the strongest impact on the stability limit or maximum achievable channel utilization. Whereas the grant sizing only has a modest impact on the stability limit; the SPD grant scheduling policy in the Double Phase Polling scheduling framework coupled with Limited with Share credits Excess distribution grant sizing produced both the lowest average packet delay and the highest stability limit.

Since the inception of Internet of Things (IoT) framework, the amount of interaction between electronic devices has tremendously increased and the ease of implementing software between such devices has bettered. Such data exchange between devices, whether between Node to Server or Node to Node, has paved way for creating new business models. Wireless Video Sensor Network Platforms are being used to monitor and understand the surroundings better. Both hardware and software supporting such devices have become much smaller and yet stronger to enable these. Specifically, the invention of better software that enable Wireless data transfer have become more simpler and lightweight technologies such as HTML5 for video rendering, Common Gateway Interface(CGI) scripts enabling interactions between client and server and WebRTC from Google for peer to peer interactions. The role of web browsers in enabling these has been vastly increasing.

Although HTTP is the most reliable and consistent data transfer protocol for such interactions, the most important underlying challenge with such platforms is the performance based on power consumption and latency in data transfer.

In the scope of this thesis, two applications using CGI and WebRTC for data transfer over HTTP will be presented and the power consumption by the peripherals in transmitting the data and the possible implications for those will be discussed.
