Provided are an optical output power control method that provides optical communication without harming the human body even when a transmission line is cut or no optical network unit (ONU) accesses a communication system, and a passive optical network (PON) system using the method. In the method, an optical signal having a predetermined period is transmitted when an optical communication system is in an abnormal state, wherein the predetermined period includes a laser-on time interval in which the optical signal has a normal power level and a laser-off time interval in which the optical signal is off or has a power level lower than the normal power level, so that the optical communication system performs optical communication without harming the human body even during the abnormal state.

A dynamic bandwidth allocation (DBA) device and a method thereof are provided. In the DBA method, the band allocation periods according to class queues and allocable bands with respect to each class queue are calculated on the basis of the service level agreement information and stored according to the service types in separate tables. The bandwidth allocation amount is calculated with respect to class queues which have the allocation periods by concurrently checking all the tables at each frame. The upward bandwidth usage efficiency is improved by calculating the final bandwidth allocation information from the service with a high priority order on the basis of the total allocable bandwidth of the corresponding frame. The upward bandwidth allocation amount can be calculated at each frame by reducing the processing speed in calculating the bandwidth allocation amount of each class queue. Accordingly, it is possible to effectively use the network.

Provided is an automatic optical power control method for an optical line terminal (OLT) of a passive optical network (PON). The automatic optical power control method includes at the OLT, measuring an allowable range of the optical power allowing a normal network operation on the PON, at the OLT, setting an optimum optical signal level within the measured allowable range of the optical power, and at the OLT, adjusting a power level of a transmitter to the set optimum optical signal level. Accordingly, an appropriate power level can be selected depending on an optical distribution network (ODN) structure to drive the transmitter. Also, when the entire optical network units are deactivated, a laser of the transmitter is turned off to thereby minimize unnecessary power consumption at the OLT.
