Based on the above-mentioned optical network unit that provides of the utility model; The utility model embodiment also further provides EPON; The structural representation of an embodiment of EPON who provides for the utility model shown in Figure 14; Shown in figure 14, this EPON comprises: optical line terminal 1, optical time domain reflectometer 2, optical distribution network 3 and at least one optical network unit 4 with at least one transceiver;
Optical network unit 4 comprises: a plurality of optical assemblies also comprise: be arranged at least one optical assembly, be used for reflector 41 that test signal is reflected.
The concrete structure of the optical network unit ONU 4 of wherein, integrated reflector 41 can repeat no more at this referring to the utility model previous embodiment.Optical time domain reflectometer OTDR2 and optical line terminal OLT 1 can integrate setting (OTDR2 of being shown in Figure 14 and OLT1 integrate the enforcement scene of setting), also can distinguish independent setting.
OTDR2 can start under the control of OLT1 and sends test massage; Also can start and send test massage through Long-distance Control; For example: through single NMP (Simpe Network Management Protocol; SNMP) or telnet service agreement (Telnet) start test from webmaster control OLT; Can also be when OLT1 detects the line quality deterioration, for example: the error rate surpass to be set thresholding or OLT1 and is periodically started to satisfy under the test case to start when periodically imposing a condition and send test massage.
When testing; The test signal that OTDR2 sends can together be sent to ONU4 with the downstream signal that OLT1 sends; When testing; OTDR test signal and downstream signal can adopt same downstream wavelength (i.e. first wavelength) to carry, such as, the mixed signal of this test signal and downstream signal sends to ONU4 with first wavelength signals; Perhaps, when test, downlink business interrupts, and first wavelength signals only comprises the OTDR test signal, after test is accomplished, recovers the downlink business that interrupts again again.In alternate embodiment, the test signal that OTDR2 sends also can adopt with the up-downgoing wavelength mutually independently three-wavelength send to ONU4 separately, in this case, test signal is the three-wavelength signal.And send first wavelength signals or the three-wavelength signal can be pre-configured to the ONU4 side, also can when starting test, be provided with.。
If carry when OTDR test signal and downstream signal adopt the first identical wavelength; Local side sends first wavelength signals to ONU4; Owing to be provided with reflector 41 at least one optical assembly of ONU4; The reflectivity of supposing 41 pairs first wavelength signals of this reflector is x (0<x<1 is preferably 0.1%~1%).Then have 1-x part (comprise the mixed signal of downstream signal and test signal or include only test signal) to receive through reflector 41 and by the photo-detector among the ONU4 in first wavelength signals, former road turns back to OTDR after device 41 reflections and other x partly is reflected.
If the OTDT test signal adopts and up-downgoing wavelength three-wavelength independently mutually; Local side sends the three-wavelength signal to the ONU4 end; Owing to be provided with reflector 41 at least one optical assembly of ONU4; Then this reflector 41 can reflect the three-wavelength signal fully, and makes the former road of three-wavelength signal turn back to OTDR.
OTDR2 can detect the position of reflector 41 and the reflectivity of pip through the time-delay and the intensity of inverse signal.Because it is bigger to have increased the ONU4 end reflection rate of reflector 41; Therefore; On the curve of OTDR2, can form a spike, through the position and the Strength Changes of spike, OTDR2 can judge whether optical fiber link that each ONU4 connects possibly exist fault or change.For example: OTDR2 can just often preserve a test curve at the optical fiber link of a certain ONU, and the position of the reflection peak that ONU is corresponding in the test curve is xKm, and the reflectivity that calculates is-30dB.OTDR2 starts the reflection peak of testing the curve discovery xKm position that obtains and has disappeared, and can judge that then the optical fiber link before the ONU ruptures.If the OTDR2 test obtains curve and finds that the reflectivity of the reflection peak of xkm position drops to-40dB, then can judge ONUi optical fiber link generation severe attrition before.
On the basis of EPON shown in Figure 14; The utility model further provides EPON another embodiment; Shown in figure 15, owing to generally include a plurality of transceivers 11 in the optical line terminal OLT 1, for a plurality of transceivers 11 can multiplexing same OTDR2; Optional, optical switch 5 and at least one wavelength division multiplexer 6 can also further be set in the EPON; Wherein, optical switch 5 is connected with OTDR2, each wavelength division multiplexer 6 respectively with optical line terminal 1 in a transceiver 11 be connected with optical switch.
When OTDR2 need test transceiver 11 among the OLT1 and the link between the ONU4, optical switch 5 can be communicated with OTDR2 and this transceiver 11.The test signal that downstream signal that the WDM6 that is connected with this transceiver 11 can send this transceiver 11 and/or OTDR2 send is coupled to optical distribution network 3; And; The reflected signal that reflector among the ONU4 41 is reflected the test signal of returning is coupled to OTDR2, and the upward signal that the ONU4 that optical distribution network 3 is received sends is coupled to this transceiver 11.
As a kind of possible implementation; Can further include in the EPON: be connected with optical switch 5 with optical time domain reflectometer 2 respectively; Be used for optical switch 5 and optical time domain reflectometer 2 are controlled, and the test and management system 7 that the test curve of optical time domain reflectometer 2 is analyzed and handled.
When needs were tested certain road PON link, test and management system 7 was at first controlled optical switch 5 OTDR2 is connected with corresponding receiver 11, promptly controls optical switch 5 and switches to link to be measured; Test and management system 7 further sends starting command to OTDR2 and tests to start OTDR2; OTDR2 can to ONU4 send be independent of the up-downgoing wavelength the three-wavelength signal as the OTDR test signal, this three-wavelength test signal respectively through light open the light 5 with corresponding WDM6 after get into link to be measured; The three-wavelength signal arrives ONU4 and since ONU4 integrated the reflector 41 that the three-wavelength signal is carried out total reflection, therefore, the three-wavelength signal can be all or approximate whole former roads return, opening the light via WDM6 and light 5 is then received by OTDR2; OTDR2 goes out the position of reflector 41 and the reflectivity of pip through the time-delay and the strength investigation of inverse signal.Because the ONU4 end reflection rate that has increased reflector 41 is big (total reflection) very; Therefore; On the curve of OTDR2, can form a spike,, can judge whether optical fiber link that each ONU4 connects possibly exist fault or change through the position and the Strength Changes of spike.
Further, because in the PON of point-to-multipoint system, possibly reach 64 and 128 ONU4 and be connected in the same PON link.If require through PON link in a reflection peak location in the OTDR test curve.When having 64 ONU in the PON link, need 64 reflection peaks to stagger and to discern the position of each ONU.And based on the function of OTDR2; The spatial resolution index has determined the beeline interval of two adjacent events that OTDR can differentiate; Promptly work as the spatial resolution of the distance of two adjacent events greater than OTDR, then two incidents can be discerned for OTDR, otherwise can not be discerned by OTDR.
The ONU4 of the integrated reflector 41 that provides based on the utility model, OTDR2 can further combine the range information between ONU4 and the OLT1, reduces ONU in twos apart from requirement at interval.
Concrete: can obtain the range information between adjacent two ONT4 through OLT1 equipment; After OTDR2 obtains the test curve of PON link, can combine the range information between adjacent two ONT4, the OTDR curve is analyzed, on the OTDR curve, mark out the position of the reflection peak of each ONT4.For example:, can not judge the reflection peak position of each ONT separately through the OTDR curve, because the reflection peak of two ONU4 overlaps when the distance between two ONU4 during less than the spatial resolution of OTDR2.In this case, judge the reflection peak width that two ONU4 are overlapping and highly judge whether there are two ONU reflection peaks here according to the range information between adjacent two ONT4.The spatial resolution of supposing OTDR2 is 10m, and (20dB) width of the pip of reflectivity decline 10dB on the OTDR curve is 12m to ONU4 upper reflector 41.The distance of the one ONU and the 2nd ONU is 5m, and the reflectivity of an ONU and the 2nd ONU also is-20dB.On the OTDR curve, if the reflection peak width of position that detects an ONU and the 2nd ONU place is represented that then the reflection peak of an ONU and the 2nd ONU all exists, and can on the OTDR curve, be marked out the position of an ONU and the 2nd ONU greater than 15m.If the width that detects reflection peak, explains that the reflection peak of one of them ONU does not exist smaller or equal to 12m.Can confirm it specifically is that an ONU or the reflection peak of the 2nd ONU do not exist according to the position of reflection peak, for example: according to the range information between adjacent two ONT4, an ONU is at the 2nd ONU front 5m; The reflection peak position of the one ONU should for (X1, X1+12), the reflection peak position of the 2nd ONU should be (X1+5; X1+17) m; When the original position of confirming reflection peak less than x1+5m, can judge that then the reflection peak of an ONU exists, and the reflection peak of the 2nd ONU does not exist.End position>x1+12m when confirming reflection peak can judge that then the reflection peak of an ONU does not exist, and the reflection peak of the 2nd ONU exists.
What should explain at last is: above embodiment is only in order to the technical scheme of explanation the utility model, but not to its restriction; Although the utility model has been carried out detailed explanation with reference to previous embodiment; Those of ordinary skill in the art is to be understood that: it still can be made amendment to the technical scheme that aforementioned each embodiment put down in writing, and perhaps part technical characterictic wherein is equal to replacement; And these are revised or replacement, do not make the spirit and the scope of each embodiment technical scheme of essence disengaging the utility model of relevant art scheme.
