Definitions
- the present invention relates to a bandwidth allocation method in a point-to-multipoint communication system.
- the OLT Optical Line Terminal
- the OLT determines a bandwidth allocation amount according to the traffic situation of the ONU in order to efficiently use the bandwidth. For example, when variable length data such as an Ethernet (registered trademark) frame is transmitted by the PON, if the grant length specified by the OLT does not match the section of the data transmitted by the ONU, the time not used for uplink data transmission A band is generated, resulting in a band loss.
- variable length data such as an Ethernet (registered trademark) frame
- the ONU notifies the queue length corresponding to the data accumulation amount of the uplink buffer in accordance with the boundary of the variable length data by the report message, and the OLT gives a grant equal to the queue length. Assigned. As a result, the OLT can be used for data transmission without leaving an allocation grant, and bandwidth allocation without loss can be performed (see Patent Document 1 and Non-Patent Document 1 below).
- the queue length is notified according to the buffer accumulation amount of the uplink data, so that the OLT cannot allocate a grant unless the uplink data is accumulated in the ONU buffer.
- the throughput depends on the round trip time of the data, and so on. In order to obtain throughput, it is necessary to reduce the delay time.
- the limit value due to the transmission speed in the PON section is lower than the limit value of the throughput, so the delay time was not a problem.
- the propagation time of the optical signal in the 20 km PON section is 0.2 ms
- the bandwidth update period is about 0.3 ms at the minimum considering the bandwidth calculation time.
- the round trip time is a total of 0.5 ms of the propagation time and the band update period
- the throughput is 1 Gbps at the maximum and does not exceed the limit of the transmission speed of the PON section. Therefore, when the transmission speed of the PON section is 1 Gbps or less, the delay due to the accumulation of data in the ONU does not become apparent.
- the delay time becomes a bottleneck.
- the TCP / IP throughput remains at 1 Gbps as long as the conventional bandwidth allocation method is used.
- the band utilization efficiency is poor.
- the end user cannot obtain a merit by upgrading.
- the present invention has been made in view of the above, and an object of the present invention is to obtain a bandwidth allocation method capable of improving throughput by reducing the uplink transmission waiting time of a terminal.
- the present invention provides a communication device that operates as the parent device in a point-to-multipoint communication system in which the child device and the parent device transmit and receive variable-length data.
- a MAC layer termination function means for performing control to transmit a permission notice to the slave unit, and extracting the queue length information that the slave unit is scheduled to transmit from the received signal, and an uplink for each slave unit.
- Traffic monitoring means for measuring the traffic volume in the direction, information on the queue length extracted by the MAC layer termination function means, traffic volume measured by the traffic monitoring means, and a band that can be allocated to one band update period.
- Band allocation function means for determining an allocation band for the slave unit based on the determination and issuing the permission notification in accordance with the determination. It updates the allocated bandwidth periodically, characterized in that.
- the band allocation method according to the present invention has an effect that the uplink transmission waiting time in the ONU can be reduced.
- FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a configuration example of a PON system according to the first embodiment.
- FIG. 2 is a flowchart for explaining a method for calculating the allocated bandwidth in the first embodiment.
- FIG. 3 is a timing chart showing the allocated bandwidth before and after the bandwidth allocation update when the surplus bandwidth is small.
- FIG. 4 is a timing chart showing the allocated bandwidths before and after the bandwidth allocation update when the surplus bandwidth is large.
- FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a configuration example of the PON system according to the second embodiment.
- FIG. 6 is a flowchart illustrating a method for calculating the allocated bandwidth in the second embodiment.
- FIG. 7 is a timing chart showing the allocated bandwidth before and after the bandwidth allocation update when the number of simultaneous transmission terminals is large.
- FIG. 8 is a timing chart showing the allocated bands before and after the band allocation update when the number of simultaneous transmission terminals is small.
- FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a configuration example of a PON system according to the present embodiment.
- the PON system shown in FIG. 1 includes an OLT 1 that is a station-side device installed in a telecommunications carrier's office, a splitter 2 that is an optical branching network including an optical fiber and a power splitter, and a subscriber side installed in a subscriber's home.
- ONU3-1, 3-2 and 3-3 which are devices.
- the OLT 1 includes an optical transceiver 11, a MAC layer termination function unit 12, a band allocation function unit 13, and a traffic monitor 14.
- the optical transceiver 11 converts the downstream signal into an optical signal and transmits it to each ONU, and converts the upstream optical signal received from each ONU into an electrical signal.
- the MAC layer termination unit 12 extracts the queue length report information received from each ONU, outputs the queue length report information to the bandwidth allocation function unit 13, and generates a grant based on the grant information notified from the bandwidth allocation function unit 13.
- the MAC layer termination unit 12 multiplexes the grant with the downlink signal addressed to each ONU and outputs the multiplexed signal to the optical transceiver 11.
- the band allocation function unit 13 manages grants allocated to each ONU in order to avoid collision between upstream signals from the ONUs.
- the bandwidth allocation function unit 13 calculates bandwidth allocation to each ONU based on the queue length report information notified from the MAC layer termination unit 12 and the traffic amount notified from the traffic monitor 14. Based on the calculation result, grant information (including the allocated bandwidth and allocation start time) for each ONU is determined and notified to the MAC layer termination function unit 12.
- the traffic monitor 14 monitors the actual data amount received from each ONU and notifies the bandwidth allocation function unit 13.
- An SNI (Service Network Interface) 15 is an interface for connecting to a service network (not shown).
- FIG. 2 is a flowchart for explaining a method for calculating the allocated bandwidth in the present embodiment.
- the bandwidth allocation function unit 13 performs the operation shown in FIG. 2 in each cycle, and determines the bandwidth allocation in the next cycle.
- the bandwidth allocation function unit 13 obtains the data amount actually transmitted from each ONU in the previous cycle from the actual data amount notified from the traffic monitor 14. Then, the bandwidth allocation function unit 13 refers to the queue length report information notified from the MAC layer termination unit 12 and the obtained traffic volume, and calculates the surplus bandwidth based on these (Step S1). Specifically, the bandwidth allocation function unit 13 takes a value reflecting the queue length and traffic volume for each ONU as a necessary bandwidth, and subtracts the necessary bandwidth from a bandwidth that can be allocated in one bandwidth update period.
- Various methods for calculating the surplus bandwidth are conceivable depending on the reflection method. Some examples will be given below, but other methods may be used.
- a value obtained by subtracting the queue length of the ONU and the traffic amount from the band that can be allocated in one band update period is defined as a surplus band.
- the queue length of the ONU is the amount of data that has already been stored in the ONU buffer and has been determined to be transmitted.
- the traffic amount is the amount of data actually received in the previous period, that is, the past performance, and indicates the tendency of the transmission data amount. In this case, the amount of data determined to be transmitted and the past performance are subtracted as the necessary bandwidth, and the remaining is set as the surplus bandwidth.
- the bandwidth allocation function unit 13 next determines a coefficient for reflecting the obtained surplus bandwidth in the bandwidth allocation. Let this coefficient be m, for example.
- the bandwidth allocation function unit 13 obtains the coefficient m by the following method, for example, based on the surplus bandwidth obtained in step S1 (step S2).
- m be a value that is standardized by comparing the surplus bandwidth with the bandwidth that can be allocated in one bandwidth update period. Alternatively, these may be combined.
- the method for determining the coefficient m may be another method.
- the bandwidth allocation function unit 13 determines grant information based on the allocated bandwidth of the next period obtained in this way (step S4).
- the surplus bandwidth is large, that is, if the amount of uplink transmission data from the ONU tends to be small, the bandwidth amount based on the traffic amount is increased.
- the surplus bandwidth is small, that is, when there is a tendency that the amount of uplink transmission data from the ONU tends to be large, only the bandwidth amount based on the queue length information is allocated, and the bandwidth allocation not including the prediction is already performed, so Can be transmitted steadily.
- efficient bandwidth allocation is possible.
- the above-described coefficient calculation may be performed every band update cycle or every predetermined cycle. In the case where it is performed every predetermined period, the allocation band is determined based on the latest coefficient.
- FIG. 3 is a timing chart showing the allocated bandwidth before and after the bandwidth allocation update when the surplus bandwidth is small.

Therefore, the uplink transmission waiting time in the ONU can be reduced. Since the surplus bandwidth is calculated for each bandwidth update period, the allocated bandwidth can be changed according to the bandwidth usage status of the PON section, and high throughput at the application level can be provided to the end user.

Then, the bandwidth allocation function unit 13B determines a coefficient for reflecting the obtained number of simultaneous transmission terminals in the bandwidth allocation. Let this coefficient be n, for example. Based on the number of ONUs obtained in step S11, the bandwidth allocation function unit 13B obtains a coefficient n by the following method, for example (step S12).
