摘要:
An optical network unit (ONU) accesses services provided by multiple optical line terminals (OLTs) in a wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) passive optical network (PON). The ONU receives downstream signals from a first plurality of OLTs through a designated port of an arrayed waveguide (AWG). At any given time, the bandpass filter module can select any one of a first plurality of AWG cycles allocated to the first plurality of OLTs. Based on received downstream signals, the ONU transmits upstream signals to a second plurality of OLTs through the designated port of the AWG. At any given time, the bandpass filter module and a transmitter of the ONU can select any one of a second plurality of AWG cycles allocated to the second plurality of OLTs. The ONU may be configured with a plurality of receivers and transmitters, whereby it is enabled to simultaneously subscribe to a plurality of AWG cycles.

Methods and apparatus for a network element or server end station to determine an estimated physical location of a fault in a communications link utilized by two network elements. In an embodiment, the first and second network elements generate link failure indications including time values representing when the respective network element detected the fault. In other embodiments, the link failure indications include time values transmitted over the communications link between the first and second network elements. A time distance between these time values is calculated, which is used to calculate the estimated physical location of the fault. In some embodiments, the link failure indications include sequence numbers transmitted or about to be transmitted over the communications link between the network elements. Sequence distances are calculated between the sequence numbers, and are used to calculate the estimated physical location of the fault.
摘要:
An Optical Network Unit, ONU, and an Optical Line Terminal, OLT, as well as a respective method therein, are provided for enabling the ONU to communicate with the OLT. The ONU and at least one OLT are comprised in a passive fibre optic access network. The passive fibre optic access network comprises two fibre paths through the network, a main fibre path and a back-up fibre path, connecting the ONU with the OLT. When a fault is detected in the main fibre path is detected, transmission rate negotiation is performed between the ONU and the OLT over the back-up path. When a transmission rate is agreed upon between the ONU and the OLT during said transmission rate negotiation with regard to communication over the back-up path, the communication between the ONU and the OLT is executed using the agreed transmission rate over the back-up path.

摘要:
A first end terminal and a second end terminal, as well as a respective method therein, are provided for enabling communication between the first end terminal and the second end terminal in a fibre optic access network. When the first and the second end terminal wish to communicate with each other, they first initiate a synchronisation procedure with the other end terminal for synchronising the two terminals with each other and enabling them to start a negotiation procedure. Then they perform the negotiation procedure, which pertains to a transmission rate for communication on the fibre link between the two end terminals, and they execute communication to the other end terminal employing the negotiated transmission rate.

A method provides advertisements to optical network units (ONUs) by an optical line terminal (OLT), wherein the advertisements enable the ONUs to identify free channels from a plurality of wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) channels in a passive optical network (PON). The method includes: transmitting from the OLT to the ONUs an advertisement identifying a free channel for each of a plurality of incompatible channel (ICH) groups, receiving a request from an ONU for the advertised free channel of an ICH group, authenticating the requesting ONU via the advertised free channel, allocating the advertised free channel to the requesting ONU upon successful authentication of the requesting ONU, and transmitting an updated advertisement from the OLT to the ONUs.

摘要:
When data containing an unrecoverable error is received, instead of discarding the data, a lower protocol layer delivers the data to a higher protocol layer along with an indication that the data contains an error. The higher protocol layer parses the data to recover portions that are not affected by the error. Additionally, the higher protocol layer can choose to accept the data if certain acceptance criteria are met.

摘要:
A system provides multidimensional tuple Hilbert ordering within a linear storage structure to enable more consistent and efficient access to stored multidimensional tuples. The database system comprises a tuple storage module that receives multidimensional data elements, where each multidimensional data element is defined by a plurality of different object types, and where each object is associated with a different dimension within a multidimensional data space. The tuple storage module further forms a respective tuple for each of the multidimensional data elements by mapping each object to an associated reference and applies a Hilbert function to the references of each of the tuples to determine a respective Hilbert ordering for each of the tuples. The system further comprises a linear data storage structure that includes a B-tree for storing the Hilbert ordering.
