摘要:
A method of operating a communication system comprises a headend station and a plurality of end user stations which are connected to the headend station by means of a physical medium, and a system of one or a plurality of channels realised on this medium. There is an assignment mechanism for assigning a relevant channel to an end user station. More particularly, only a single channel is assigned to an end user station, each channel being assigned to a subset of zero, one or a plurality of end user stations. Controlled by the detection of a channel overload and/or end user dynamics, said assignment mechanism is activated to realise a new assignment of a plurality of channels while the condition is maintained that no more than a single channel is or remains assigned to each one of the end user stations.

Polarization-diverse optical devices and related methods are disclosed. In some embodiments, these devices and methods are realized by utilizing a four-port, wavelength-dependent optical coupler that is arranged to receive identical counter-propagating optical signals.
