摘要:
A passive optical network system (PON) has a plurality of OLTs and ONUs with different transmission rates. OLTs with different transmission rates share information of priority frames and destinations, and determine timing for frame transmission to ONUs so that the signal from each of the OLTs does not collide when multiplied in a splitter. OLTs transmit the data to the ONU as a burst signal to prevent the signals with different rates from colliding. ONU acquires the information of the following burst frames. ONU receives only the signal addressed to the own ONU or with the transmission rate of own ONU, therefore errors in ONUs can be avoided. OLT receives only the signal with the transmission rate of own OLT from ONUs based on the transmission timing from the ONUs shared by the line terminators, errors in OLTs can be avoided.

摘要:
In a PON, at the time of ranging, an OLT (a master station) measures an optical level of a signal from at least an ONU (a slave station) capable of communicating at plural transmission speeds. The OLT determines the transmission speed applied to the ONU according to the measured level. Incidentally, the ONU may measure an optical level of a ranging request signal and determine the transmission speed. At a normal operation, when the OLT sends information of plural different transmission speeds to the ONU, a timing when a next frame reaches and transmission speed information are notified to the ONU. Based on the timing, the ONU receives only data of the transmission speed that can be handled. Besides, the OLT switches the transmission speed to receive data based on a grant designation transmitted from the plural ONUs to the OLT.

When an ONU accommodating range is enlarged, and ONUs shorter and ONUs longer in a communication path to an OLT are accommodated in a PON at the same time, there is a need to change a light intensity at the time of transmitting a downstream signal in order that both of the ONUs receive a downstream signal from the OLT. When a near-end ONU receives a signal having a light intensity necessary to communicate between the OLT and a far-end ONU, there arises such a problem that the light intensity is as high as an ONU receiver fails. In order to eliminate the ONU failure of the above problem, prior to transmission of the downstream signal, a downstream signal transmission schedule (downstream light intensity map) is notified to all of the ONUs. An optical transceiver of the OLT has a function of adjusting an output light intensity, and adjusts the light intensity to values receivable by the individual ONUs when the signal arrives at the respective ONUs according to route distances to the respective ONUs.

The OLT manages information of optical intensity and communication bit rate receivable by each ONU, and transmits a signal at suitable optical intensity and a bit rate. The OLT decides a signal transmission plan for each ONU according to a status of accumulated information waiting to be transmitted in the OLT's own device buffer, and inserts the signal transmission plan in a header or payload of a downlink frame, thereby notifying the ONUs of the information prior to transmitting accumulated information (primary signal). The ONU recognizes the signal transmission plan of the OLT according to the time information in a downlink intensity map, receives only a signal having the optical intensity and bit rate suitable for the ONU's own device, and blocks other signals.

An interconnection between fully synchronous networks and next-generation frame communications networks is disclosed. A means of bidirectional frame format conversion between a synchronous multiplexing system and a logical multiplexing system is provided, along with a method of transmitting data between different networks on a path as if it were being transmitted in the same network. Further, when converting network control information in an STM network into data suitable for a packet network, even across the boundary of a synchronous multiplexing system and a logical multiplexing system, a unified communication management means is provided over the whole path.
摘要:
When a neighbor ONU receives a signal with light intensity high enough to secure communication between an OLT and a remote ONU, the light intensity may be excessively high to damage a receiver of the neighbor ONU. In order to avoid such a problem, each ONU is notified of a downstream signal transmission plan (downstream light intensity map) prior to transmission of a downstream signal. Each ONU receives the downstream light intensity map (light intensity transmission schedule of downstream signal) in advance. Thus, the neighbor ONU can block or attenuate an optical signal addressed to the remote ONU, and the remote ONU can determine normal operation even when the remote ONU cannot receive a signal addressed to the neighbor ONU. Thus, the remote ONU can be prevented from issuing a wrong error signal.

An optical access system capable of avoiding cutoffs or interruption in the periodically transmitted signals that occur during the ranging time is provided. A first method to avoid signal cutoffs is to stop periodic transmit signals at the transmitter during the ranging period, and transmit all the periodic transmit signals together when the ranging ends, and buffer the signals at the receiver to prepare for ranging. A second method is to fix definite periods ahead of time for performing ranging, then cluster the multiple periodic transmit signals together in sets at the transmitter and send them, and then disassemble those sets back into signals at the receiver. The transmitting and receiving is then controlled so that the transmit periods do not overlap with the ranging periods. In this way an optical access system is provided that can send and receive signals requiring periodic transmissions without interruption even during ranging operation.

摘要:
Provided is an ONU that suppresses transmission of a useless multicast control message to a PON section and enables a communication bandwidth of the PON section to be effectively used. The ONU of the PON system has a multicast group management table that shows a correspondence between a multicast group identifier and an address of a user terminal participating in a multicast group. When the ONU receives a request message of participation in the multicast group from the user terminal, the ONU registers the correspondence between the multicast group identifier indicated by the received message and the user terminal address. A new received message is deleted without being sent to the OLT if another user terminal address is registered already, along with a correspondence with the same multicast group identifier, in the multicast group management table.
