As shown in Figure 1, comprise among the ODN12 that the second dense wave division multipurpose band leads to device (DWDM Band Pass) 121,123 and 1 Equations of The Second Kind couplers 124 of dense wave division multipurpose partial wave demultiplexing device (DWDM Demux) 122,8 first kind couplers (Coupler).OLT11 links to each other with the 2nd DWDM Band Pass121 by optical fiber.Equations of The Second Kind coupler 124 adopts 1: 8 coupler, only at up direction transfer of data is arranged; 2: 8 the coupler that first kind coupler 123 adopts all has transfer of data at up-downlink direction.8 port side of each first kind coupler 123 connect respectively 8 ONU13.At down direction, one of them port of each first kind coupler 2 port side links to each other with DWDM Demux122 by optical fiber; At up direction, another port of each first kind coupler 2 port side links to each other with a port of Equations of The Second Kind coupler 8 port side, 8 first kind couplers are corresponding continuous respectively with 8 ports of Equations of The Second Kind coupler, and 1 port side of Equations of The Second Kind coupler links to each other with the 2nd DWDM Band Pass121 by optical fiber.The 2nd DWDM Band Pass121 receives the coupled signal that OLT11 exports descending by optical fiber, and sends it to DWDM Demux122; The upward signal of the wavelength 1310nm that transmits at uplink receiving Equations of The Second Kind coupler 124, and it is exported to OLT11 by optical fiber.DWDM Demux122 receives the coupled signal of the 2nd DWDM Band Pass121 output, coupled signal is carried out the partial wave demultiplexing, the downstream signal of 8 different wave lengths separately, then the downstream signal of each wavelength is transferred to a first kind coupler 123 corresponding to downstream signal of this wavelength downwards, sends the one group of ONU13 that is attached thereto downwards to by each first kind coupler 123 again.At up direction, ONU13 adopts the TDM pattern all to send upward signal with the 1310nm wavelength, first kind coupler 123 upwards is transferred to Equations of The Second Kind coupler 124 with the upward signal of ONU23, Equations of The Second Kind coupler 124 receives the upward signal of the 1310nm wavelength of all first kind coupler 123 transmission, by optical fiber it upwards is transferred to the 2nd DWDM Band Pass121.
The ONU13 of each user side is identical, still adopts the wideband receiver of prior art PON system, therefore in the ONU side to λ
1dTo λ
AdThe signal of these 8 wavelength can both correctly receive.8 ONU connect same first kind coupler 123 as one group, receive the light signal of identical wavelength.Still adopt the original time division multiplexing of prior art PON system (TDM) pattern, distinguish the light signal that sends different ONU to different time slots.
In the present embodiment, near 1490nm, adopt DWDM technological expansion 8 wavelength as example in the selected wave-length coverage take descending operation wavelength.The present invention adopts the downstream signal of N different wave length, maximum=wave-length coverage of N/wavelength interval.DWDM technology according to present commercialization, require channel wavelength interval 0.4nm to 1.6nm, and the technical parameter according to receiver wavelength range, different PON port transmitter and the DWDM Demux of the optical receiver of ONU, can select different centre wavelength, wave-length coverage and wavelength interval, then the maximum of N is also with difference.The wave-length coverage that the optical receiver of present ONU can receive is 1480nm to 1500nm, and then wave-length coverage is 1500-1480=20nm.If adopt wavelength interval 1.6nm, then descending extendible wavelength channel number N maximum is about 12.If adopt wavelength interval 0.8nm, then the N maximum is about 25.If adopt wavelength interval 0.4nm, then the N maximum is about 50.For the situation of different N value, need the number of corresponding adjustment PON port and first kind coupler, make it be equal to N, adjust the shunt ratio of Equations of The Second Kind coupler, make it equal 1: N, all the other system configurations are described identical with present embodiment with the realization principle, do not repeat them here.
As the network system of point-to-multipoint delivery, in the PON system, master unit OLT and from adopting Multi-point Control Protocol (MPCP) to realize effective transmission of data between the unit ONU.MPCP can realize a controllable network configuration, such as the allocated bandwidth of the automatic discovery of ONU, point of termination station and inquiry, monitoring etc.In the prior art, operating in the OLT side MPCP corresponding with the PON port is symmetrical work in up-downgoing, namely requires the logical links set of up-downgoing identical, and the upgoing O NU set that the MPCP entity can be managed is consistent with descending ONU set.And in the present invention, the up-downgoing ONU set that requires the MPCP entity to manage is different, and the MPCP entity of the descending PON port one 11 to 117 of OLT side can only transmit at down direction the data of each self-corresponding ONU, does not have data receiver at up direction; The MPCP entity of two-way PON port one 18 can receive the data of all ONU in the descending data that can only transmit the ONU of self correspondence at up direction.So in the present PON system standard, MPCP can not realize the asymmetric mode of operation of up-downlink direction of the present invention.Realize PON of the present invention system, need to do suitable improvement to the MPCP entity of local side.
In OLT, comprise and all descending PON ports and two-way PON port 8 MPCP entities one to one, respectively descending PON port corresponding to control be connected the upstream bandwidth of the ONU that the PON port connects and distribute.8 PON ports are formed a PON port set (PON-Trunk).Exist the PON-Trunk of following dual mode can realize the asymmetric mode of operation of up-downlink direction of the present invention.
Fig. 2 is the composition structure chart of the first PON-Trunk, adopts this kind structure only to move a MPCP entity in each PON-Trunk.As shown in Figure 2, the corresponding MPCP entity of each PON port is in each MPCP protocol entity introducing work (Active) and (Standby) for subsequent use two kinds of operating states.By the software configuration, make the MPCP entity 218 of two-way PON port one 18 correspondences be in the Active state, the MPCP entity 211 to 217 of all descending PON port one 11 to 117 correspondences all is in the Standby state.The MPCP entity that is in the Standby state is in the Gate frame of the MPCP entity of Active state in descending forwarding.
For two-way PON port one 18, its corresponding MPCP entity 218 is in the Active state, moves complete MPCP agreement and Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA) computing engines this moment.When having ONU to transmit upstream data in the system, this ONU sends the Report frame to OLT first, report the local condition of this ONU and required upstream bandwidth to OLT, the MPCP entity of two-way PON port one 18 correspondences is according to the up Report frame of receiving in the OLT, move complete MPCP agreement and DBA computing engines, calculate the allocated bandwidth result, the PON port transmitter by two-way PON port issues this allocated bandwidth result, and it is transmitted to other MPCP entity.The descending Gate frame of the MPCP solid generation of two-way PON port one 18 correspondences, comprise at most 4 mandates (Grant) in the Gate frame, the DBA computing engines is to each ONU fair allocat bandwidth that need to transmit upstream data, and its allocated bandwidth result issues each ONU by the Grant in the Gate frame.After ONU received the Gate frame, the time slot of stipulating according to Grant sent data to OLT.
For descending PON port one 11 to 117, its corresponding MPCP entity 211 to 217 is in the Standby state, forbid moving MPCP agreement and DBA computing engines this moment, receive the allocated bandwidth result that the MPCP entity 218 of two-way PON port one 18 correspondences calculates, and its PON port transmitter by descending PON port one 11 to 117 is transmitted to each self-corresponding ONU downwards.
So so that in each PON-Trunk, only move a MPCP entity, control the uplink signal transmissions of all ONU by this MPCP entity.
Fig. 3 is the composition structure chart of the second PON-Trunk, adopts each the MPCP entity real-time synchronization operation in this kind structure PON-Trunk.As shown in Figure 3, the corresponding MPCP entity 311 to 318 of PON port one 11 to 118 difference.Each MPCP entity is only controlled each self-corresponding ONU, and the Report frame that other ONU is sent does not process.In order to distinguish the range of management of each MPCP entity, prevent conflict, in advance according to the set of the corresponding ONU that connects of the corresponding PON port of each MPCP entity, be the scope of the manageable LLID of each MPCP physical arrangements (LLID) by software, i.e. LLID subset (LLID-SubSet).The MPCP entity that two-way PON port is corresponding is transmitted to MPCP entities all in the PON-Trunk with up Report frame.Each MPCP entity receives ONU in the LLID-SubSet separately to the local condition of OLT report and required upstream bandwidth, move complete MPCP agreement and Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation DBA computing engines, calculate the allocated bandwidth result, and issue the allocated bandwidth result by the PON port transmitter in the corresponding PON port.The LLID-SubSet non-overlapping copies of configuration, and should be more than or equal to attachable ONU quantity under this PON port.
As shown in Figure 3, each MPCP entity shares two public variables, i.e. MPCP clock (Mpcp_timer) and next mandate time started (Next_Grant_Start_Time) variable.Mpcp_timer is the MPCP clock that the MPCP entity of the MPCP entity of all OLT in the PON-Trunk and ONU shares, all MPCP entity synchronous working in the assurance system.The moment that Next_Grant_Start_Time indicates initial time (Start Time) territory of this mandate in the next Grant to distribute.Each MPCP entity will obtain Next_Grant_Start_Time before processing Report, to guarantee that the Gate that oneself generates can not clash with the Gate that other MPCP entity has generated, after generating new the mandate, each run DBA computing engines all to upgrade this public variable simultaneously, to notify other time slot that MPCP entity has taken oneself.Because the DBA computing engines of each MPCP entity adopts identical algorithm, so the running status of MPCP entity corresponding to each PON port is consistent.Again because adopt the TDM technology, upstream data is that order arrives in time, each Report frame that only has an ONU constantly arrives, and therefore only has a MPCP entity and is processing a Report frame, does not have two MPCP entities and clashes processing the Report frame simultaneously.
The PON system adopts the asymmetric mode of operation of up-downgoing among the present invention, except the operation of MPCP agreement, also needs the data handling procedure of bridge in the OLT (Bridge) is suitably improved.Fig. 4 is the connection diagram of bridge 40 and PON port one 11 to 118 among the OLT11.Each port of bridge 40 is corresponding one by one physically with all descending PON port ones 11 to 117 and two-way PON port one 18 in the OLT.The mode of operation of the standard bridge of prior art PON system is that the data of ONU enter bridge at up direction from certain port of bridge, and then at down direction, the data of going to this ONU will be from this port output of bridge.And among the PON-Trunk of the present invention, at up direction, only have a PON interface can receive the upstream data of all ONU, namely all upstream datas all are port inputs from bridge.According to the mode of operation of prior art standard bridge, downlink data also can only be exported from this port of bridge; And in the present invention, go to the downlink data of different ONU from PON port output corresponding to target ONU, and then require downlink data respectively from 8 PON port outputs, namely downlink data will be exported from 8 ports of bridge respectively.Can export from the corresponding bridge port of target ONU in order to make downlink data, automatic media access control (MAC) address learning function that must forbid bridge, according to the set of the corresponding ONU that connects of each PON port, MAC Address and bridge port (MAC-PORT) mapping table of configuration bridge.At first according to manageable all ONU of the MPCP entity that each PON port is corresponding in the PON-Trunk, dispose the LLID set of this PON port, i.e. LLID subset (LLID-Subset).Each PON port receives the separately interior uplink data frames of LLID-Subset, then according to the MAC Address of carrying in the uplink data frames and LLID (LLID), upgrades the separately MAC-LLID mapping table of PON port.According to the MAC-LLID mapping table of each PON port, dispose the MAC-PORT mapping table of bridge again.As shown in Figure 4, comprise a LLID-Subset in each MPCP entity, be used to refer to manageable all ONU of this MPCP entity.When downlink data output was arranged, each bridge port issued downlink data according to the MAC-PORT mapping table of pre-configured bridge, and the control downlink data is from PON port output corresponding to target ONU.
Use this PON system, in descending employing DWDM pattern, up employing TDM pattern is carried out transfer of data, and the application flow of its transfer of data is as follows:
Fig. 5 is the flow chart of PON system descending method for transmitting signals of the present invention.As shown in Figure 5, PON system descending signal transmission of the present invention may further comprise the steps:
Step 501: adopt the DWDM technology, in OLT side selected center wavelength, wave-length coverage and wavelength interval, near the selected wave-length coverage selected center's wavelength, according to selected wavelength interval, export the downstream signal of a plurality of different wave lengths.Wherein centre wavelength, wave-length coverage and wavelength interval be in the light-receiving scope of ONU, and selected in the technical parameter scope of PON port transmitter and DWDM partial wave demultiplexing device DWDMDemux.
Step 502: in the OLT side, the downstream signal of a plurality of different wave lengths is coupled into one road signal, transmits this coupled signal at down direction.
Step 503:ODN receives this coupled signal and it is carried out the partial wave demultiplexing, with the downstream signal of a plurality of different wave lengths separately.
Step 504: one group of ONU corresponding to downstream signal that the downstream signal of each wavelength is sent respectively to this wavelength.
Fig. 6 is the flow chart of PON system uplink method for transmitting signals of the present invention.As shown in Figure 6, PON system uplink signal transmission of the present invention may further comprise the steps:
Step 601: adopt the TDM technology, the ONU that needs uplink data sending reports local condition and the required upstream bandwidth of this ONU to OLT in time slot separately.
MPCP entity in the step 602:OLT is processed and is calculated according to local condition and the required upstream bandwidth of this ONU report, obtains the allocated bandwidth result, and this allocated bandwidth result is sent to ONU.
Step 603:ONU sends the upward signal of single wavelength to OLT according to the time slot of stipulating among the allocated bandwidth result.
As seen from the above-described embodiment, the present invention adopts the DWDM technology to expand the closely downstream signal of different wave length of a plurality of spacings in the OLT side at down direction, it is coupled into one road signal transmits, and in ODN, add partial wave demultiplexing device, coupled signal is separated into the downstream signal of a plurality of different wave lengths, and the downstream signal of each wavelength inputed to one group of ONU corresponding to this wavelength, thereby do not needing to change the downlink bandwidth of having expanded the PON system under the prerequisite of ustomer premises access equipment.Further, still adopt the TDM pattern at up direction, the upward signal of transmission single wavelength remains unchanged the upstream bandwidth of former PON system.Because the present invention only need to add new device or upgrade software to OLT and ODN, and needn't change the existing equipment in the network system, thereby so that up-front investment is all protected, has saved equipment cost and the engineering cost of the network capacity extension.
In a word, the above is preferred embodiment of the present invention only, is not for limiting protection scope of the present invention.Within the spirit and principles in the present invention all, any modification of doing, be equal to replacement, improvement etc., all should be included within protection scope of the present invention.
