本公开实施例的注册过程中传递的信息总量也减少了,例如,其中不用传输身份标识请求消息、测距请求消息、测距响应消息等,故即使不考虑安静窗口,其注册过程本身所耗费的时间和信息量也都较少。
由此,本公开实施例可实现光网络单元的快速注册,减少业务信息的时延,满足移动前传、移动回传、高清视频业务、增强现实(AR)业务等对传输时延要求很严格的业务的要求。

名词解释
本公开实施例中,若没有额外解释,则以下技术术语的意义,应按照以下解释理解:
其中,“注册”是指光网络单元(ONU)在与光线路终端(OLT)建立物理连接(即连接到分支光纤)后,通过信息交互使ONU和OLT都获取所需信息,从而ONU能够被OLT有效管控,进入工作状态,实现与OLT间业务信息的交互。
其中,“注册信息”是指OLT在注册过程中需要使用到的信息,其可以通过与ONU的交互得到,也可根据与ONU交互得到的信息计算得到。
其中,“注册配置信息”是指ONU在注册过程中需要获取的信息,ONU需要根据注册配置信息配置自身的状态,从而完成注册过程。具体的,注册配置信息可以是注册信息的一部分,也可以是根据注册信息计算得到的。
参照图1,在一些相关技术中,无源光网络可包括位于中心局的OLT,OLT通过分光器与多条分支光纤分别连接,每个分支光纤可连接一个位于用户端的ONU。
其中,部分ONU仅通过一条上下行通道连接OLT,该通道也称“业务通道”,是用于传输业务信息的,这些ONU称为第一ONU(图中为ONU1),或非低时延ONU。
示例性的,以上业务通道具体可包括10吉比特对称无源光网络(10-Gigabit-Capable Symmetric PON,XGS-PON)的上行通道(λ XGS-PONu)和下 行通道(λ XGS-PONd)。业务通道的具体形式不限于此。
其中,每个ONU在注册完成后,根据OLT为其配置的授权带宽工作,故不同ONU的上行信息必然互不干扰。而对于未注册的ONU,其在注册过程中发送的上行信息可能与其它ONU的上行信息冲突,从而造成信息丢失、错误等。
为此,在第一ONU的注册过程中,OLT需要在业务通道开放安静窗口(Slient Window),暂停其它ONU的上行信息,但这会导致业务信息的传输产生严重的时延,甚至无法满足移动前传、移动回传、高清视频业务、增强现实(AR)业务等对传输时延要求很严格的业务的要求。
第一ONU的注册过程可参照图2,包括:
S001、OLT周期性的在业务通道打开安静窗口,广播下发身份标识请求消息。
S002、若有第一ONU已接入(建立物理连接)无源光网络但还未进行注册,则该第一ONU在接收到身份标识请求消息后,向OLT发送包括自身的身份标识的身份标识响应消息。
其中,ONU的身份标识是用于区分不同ONU设备的唯一的标志,其具体形式可根据无源光网络形式的不同而不同。示例性的,对于GPON系列的ONU,身份标识可以是序列号(Serial Number,SN);而对于以太网无源光网络(Ethernet Passive Optical Network,EPON)系列的ONU,身份标识可以是其媒体接入控制(Media Access Control,MAC)地址。
其中,该第一ONU可以是首次接入并注册的;也可以是之前注册后离线,再重新接入并重新注册的。
S003、OLT接收到身份标识响应消息并关闭安静窗口,确定当前有第一ONU需要注册,完成对ONU的“发现”,并向该第一ONU下发逻辑标识。
其中,逻辑标识是由OLT为ONU分配的、在无源光网络中起识别ONU的作用的唯一标识,其具体形式可根据无源光网络形式的不同而不同。示例性的,对于GPON系列,ONU的逻辑标识可以是ONU ID;而对于EPON系列,ONU的逻辑标识可以是根据MAC地址算出的逻辑链路标识(Logical Link Identifier,LLID)。
其中,由于此时OLT已经获取了第一ONU的身份标识并向第一ONU分配了逻辑标识,故此后OLT向该第一ONU下发的信息实质均为单播,而不再是广播。
S004、OLT再次在业务通道打开安静窗口,向该第一ONU下发测距请求消 息。
S005、该第一ONU接收到测距请求消息后,向OLT发送测距响应消息。
S006、OLT接收到测距响应消息并关闭安静窗口,再根据测距请求消息、测距响应消息的时间差,可以计算得到双向传输时间(Round-trip time,RTT),再结合业务通道的波长,可计算得出OLT相对第一ONU的均衡延时(Eqd),完成“测距”,并可向该第一ONU下发均衡延时。
其中,“均衡延时”是表示信息在OLT和相应ONU间传输所需的时间的参数,其实质上由OLT和相应ONU间的等效距离或逻辑距离决定。应当理解,均衡延时的具体参数形式可以是多样的,只要某个参数(或信息)实质上能代表以上内容,则该参数(或信息)就称为“均衡延时”。
S007、OLT根据均衡延时,计算出分配给该第一ONU的授权带宽,向该第一ONU下发授权带宽。
S008、该第一ONU根据接收到的逻辑标识、均衡延时、授权带宽进行自身状态的配置,完成注册,从而可开始根据授权带宽向OLT发送业务信息。
其中,OLT在注册过程中获取到的各种信息均可称为注册信息,例如ONU的身份标识、均衡延时、逻辑标识、授权带宽等,或者,其中的部分内容也可不属于注册信息,如逻辑标识、授权带宽。
其中,OLT发送给ONU,用于供ONU进行配置的信息为注册配置信息,注册配置信息具体可包括逻辑标识、均衡延时、授权带宽等。其中,注册配置信息可以是注册信息的一部分,也可以是根据注册信息计算得出的,例如,授权带宽可根据均衡延时计算得到。
其中,针对不同类型的无源光网络,其中注册配置信息的具体内容可不同。例如,在EPON系列中,均衡延时可不发送给ONU,故其不属于注册配置信息。
可见,以上注册过程中,为保证第一ONU的身份标识响应消息和测距响应消息不与其它ONU的上行信息冲突,需要开放安静窗口,停止其它ONU的业务信息上传,从而造成业务信息的时延。
在另一些相关技术中,参照图1,无源光网络中还可有另一部分ONU是支持“第三波长通信”的,它们称为第二ONU(图中为ONU2),或者说是低时延ONU。
第二ONU除通过以上业务通道与OLT连接外,还通过另一个注册通道与OLT连接,该注册通道中使用的通信波长为第三波长,其不同于业务通道中使用的通信波长。
示例性的,以上注册通道包括吉比特对称无源光网络(Gigabit-Capable Symmetric PON,GPON)的上行通道(λ PONu)和下行通道(λ PONd)。注册通道的具体形式不限于此,只要其不同于业务通道即可。
应当理解,以上业务通道、注册通道是相对独立的,即二者中的信息传递互不影响。
为此,对支持第三波长通信的第二ONU,其注册相关的信息可在注册通道(第三波长的通道)中传输,从而其注册过程对业务信息没有影响。
其中,在注册通道中进行注册的具体过程可与第一ONU在业务通道中进行注册的具体过程相对应(只是通道不同),在此不再详细描述。
虽然支持第三波长通信的ONU在注册时不会导致业务信息的时延,但是,现网中已经存在的很多ONU是不支持第三波长通信的,或者说是非低时延ONU(第一ONU),而这些ONU仍然存在时延问题。
尤其是,在新一代通信网络(如5G通信网络)的推广过程中,为兼顾现有网络设备和成本,通常无法完全使用低时延ONU构建无源光网络,而是会在较长时间内,仍然有低时延ONU和非低时延ONU共存的现象。
另外,对支持第三波长通信的ONU,其注册过程中仍然需要在注册通道开放安静窗口,但随着技术的发展,注册通道可能也需要用于传输其它有用的信息,而这些信息的传输也会因安静窗口的存在而产生较大时延。
第一方面,参照图1,本公开实施例提供一种ONU注册的方法。
本公开实施例的方法用于供OLT执行,以完成ONU的注册。
参照图3、图4,本公开实施例的方法包括:
S101、根据提前获取的待注册ONU的注册信息,下发注册配置信息,完成待注册ONU的注册。
其中,待注册ONU的注册信息是在本次注册开始之前获取的。
在本次注册开始之前,OLT已经通过某些方式(具体方式后续描述)预先获取到了针对待注册ONU的注册信息(并可将其保存下来),并可将注册信息存储下来。从而当本次注册过程开始后,OLT可在没有从待注册ONU获取到信息(注册信息)的情况下,直接利用自身已经获取的注册信息,得到注册配置信息并下发(如广播下发)给待注册ONU,供待注册ONU进行配置,完成注册过程。
应当理解,只有某个ONU没有注册时,才需要对其进行注册,故本步骤(S101)开始进行时,待注册ONU应当还处于“未开始注册”的状态,而非已 经进行了一部分注册流程。
应当理解,由于注册信息可能与接入位置(如某个分支光纤)有关,故待注册ONU应当是连接到与其注册信息对应的位置的。
应当理解,虽然进行本步骤(S101)之前,需要已经获取了待注册ONU的注册信息,但其不代表每次进行本步骤都要先进行一次获取待注册ONU的注册信息的步骤,即在OLT获取到待注册ONU的注册信息后,后续可多次利用该注册信息进行本步骤S101(即进行注册)。
其中,下发的注册配置信息的具体内容可有多项(如逻辑标识、均衡延时、授权带宽等),这些内容可以携带在一条信息中一次下发,也可以是参照图4分为多次下发的。
其中,根据具体应用环境的不同,本公开实施例中的待注册ONU形式可不同。
例如,作为本实施例的一种方式,待注册ONU可以是之前曾经进行过注册,但之后离线,又“重新”接入的ONU。
再如,作为本实施例的另一种方式,待注册ONU可以是之前没有注册过的“全新”接入的ONU。
再如,作为本实施例的另一种方式,也可以是一个分支光纤曾经连接某个ONU,而后“更换”为待注册ONU(此时待注册ONU也是新的)。
可见,本公开实施例中,在具体注册步骤开始前,OLT已经预先获取到了针对待注册ONU的注册信息,从而注册过程中,OLT可直接根据预先获取的注册信息向待注册ONU下发注册配置信息,而不需要接收来自待注册ONU的信息。也就是说,本公开实施例中,注册过程中只要OLT“下发信息”即可,而下发信息并不存在冲突问题,故其注册过程中不需要开放安静窗口,避免了开窗对系统造成的影响,大大降低了业务信息的时延。
本公开实施例的注册过程中传递的信息总量也减少了,例如,其中不用传输身份标识请求消息、测距请求消息、测距响应消息等,故即使不考虑安静窗口,其注册过程本身所耗费的时间和信息量也都较少。
由此,本公开实施例可实现ONU的快速注册,减少业务信息的时延,满足移动前传、移动回传、高清视频业务、增强现实(AR)业务等对传输时延要求很严格的业务的要求。
在一些实施例中,注册信息包括以下至少一项:
ONU的身份标识;ONU的身份标识包括ONU的序列号,或,ONU的MAC 地址;
ONU的均衡延时。
为完成注册,OLT至少需要获得ONU的身份标识和均衡延时(Equalization Delay,Eqd),即注册信息要包括“身份标识-均衡延时”的对应关系。
身份标识可为以上的序列号(SN)或MAC地址等。
在一些实施例中,注册配置信息包括以下至少一项:
待注册ONU的逻辑标识;逻辑标识包括待注册ONU的ONU-ID,或,待注册ONU的逻辑链路标识;
ONU的均衡延时;
分配给待注册ONU的授权带宽。
为完成注册,OLT下发给待注册ONU的信息至少应包括分配给待注册ONU的逻辑标识以及授权带宽,其中授权带宽可以是根据均衡延时计算得到的(也通过其它方式确定);同时,在部分无源光网络中,均衡延时也可作为注册配置信息下发给待注册ONU。
身份标识可为以上的序列号ONU-ID或逻辑链路标识(LLID)等。
在一些实施例中,以上授权带宽前后分别具有预设的保护间隔。
本公开实施例中的授权带宽是根据预存的均衡延时得出的,而非根据实时测试的均衡延时得出的,故其可能存在一定的误差(如因无源光网络整体状况发生变化而导致的误差)。因此,本公开实施例中分配的授权带宽的前后,都应是未使用的时间,即具有较大的保护间隔,以保证在授权带宽有误差的情况下,OLT仍可在保护间隔中接收到待注册ONU的业务信息,避免业务信息冲突。
注册信息和注册配置信息的具体内容、形式等,可根据需要进行调整。例如,均衡延时若不下发给待注册ONU,则不属于注册信息。再如,逻辑标识、授权带宽等,可不属于注册信息(故每次下发前计算得到),但也可以直接包括在注册信息中(故每次下发前从注册信息中提取)。
在一些实施例中,下发注册配置信息(S101)包括:周期性的下发注册配置信息。
作为本公开实施例的一种方式,注册配置信息可以是周期性重复下发的,即,在获取待注册ONU的注册信息后,只要待注册ONU还没开始注册(例如发现待注册ONU下线),则可每隔预定的时间,就下发一次注册配置信息,以“尝试”让待注册ONU完成注册。
根据以上方式,待注册ONU在获得授权带宽前,不需要发送任何信息,不会对业务信息的传输造成影响。
在一些实施例中,下发注册配置信息(S101)包括:当满足触发条件时,下发注册配置信息。
在一些实施例中,触发条件包括以下至少一项:
接收到预定的触发信息;
接收到除待注册ONU外的ONU的业务信息,并在业务信息中发现可纠正的错误。
或者,作为本公开实施例的另一种方式,也可以是通过某些条件确认待注册ONU已经接入,从而触发注册配置信息的下发(即触发注册过程)。
在一实施例中,可以是待注册ONU在需要注册时(如接入时,或接到用户的命令时)主动向OLT发送触发信息,从而OLT在接收到触发信息后才开始下发注册配置信息。
其中,以上触发信息可为短消息,从而其与其它ONU上传的业务信息冲突的概率较低;且即使当短消息与业务信息冲突时,虽然会导致业务信息发生错误,但该错误通常是可纠正的。因此,OLT也可在发现接收到的业务信息存在错误,且错误可被纠正时,认为实际上是待注册ONU发送了触发信息,故开始下发注册配置信息(即开始注册过程)。
根据以上方式,OLT仅在待注册ONU确实需要注册时才下发注册配置信息,其中不会产生无用的信息传递,可降低对下行通道的占用。
在一些实施例中,在下发注册配置信息(S101)后,还包括:
S102、接收待注册ONU发送的上线响应信息。
ONU在接收到注册配置信息后即可完成注册,并可以在授权带宽内上传业务信息。
但本公开实施例中,在注册过程中OLT仅下发信息而不接收来自待注册ONU的信息,故OLT无法确定待注册ONU是否已经接收到注册配置信息而完成注册。因此,参照图5,待注册ONU可在接收到注册配置信息并完成注册后,在配置给其的授权带宽中向OLT反馈上线响应信息。
相应的,OLT只有在接收到上线响应信息后,才会确定待注册ONU的注册已经完成;反之,若OLT在注册配置信息后,在预定时间内未接收到上线响应信息,则可认为待注册ONU未能完成注册(如未接入、未上电等),需要后续在合适机会再次下发注册配置信息。
上线响应信息的具体形式可以是多样的。例如,上线响应信息可采用现有的Acknowledge消息实现,如下表所示,其中ONU-ID为分配给待注册ONU的逻辑标识,SeqNo为0,Completion code为0。上线响应信息也可以用其它形式的消息。
Figure PCTCN2021074664-appb-000001
在某些情况下(如注册配置信息在满足触发条件后下发时),也可默认待注册ONU必然接收到了注册配置信息而完成了注册,从而不需要上线响应信息,OLT只要在发出注册配置信息后,等待待注册ONU的业务信息即可。
在一些实施例中,在下发注册配置信息(S101)后,还包括:
S103、接收待注册ONU发送的业务信息。
S104、根据业务信息和注册配置信息的授权带宽,调整待注册ONU的注册信息中的均衡延时。
参照图4、图5,在注册完成后,待注册ONU可以开始根据分配给其的授权带宽向OLT发送业务信息。如前,由于本公开实施例中的授权带宽是根据预存的均衡延时得出的,而非根据实时测试的均衡延时得出,故其可能存在一定的误差(例如因无源光网络的整体状况发生变化导致的误差)。
为此,可在待注册ONU开始业务信息传递后,根据接收到业务信息的时间等重新确定均衡延时,并对获取的业务信息中的均衡延时进行调整(或者说更新),以保证均衡延时的准确性,从而在后续(如下一次注册时)“修正”授权带宽。
在一些实施例中,参照图6,提前获取待注册ONU的注册信息的过程包括:
S1001、在待注册ONU于本次注册前完成过的注册或工作过程中,获取待 注册ONU的注册信息。
也就是说,在下发注册配置信息(S101)前,本公开实施例的方法还可包括获取注册ONU的注册信息的步骤。
而以上步骤具体是,在本次注册过程(S101)开始前,待注册ONU进行的其它注册过程中,OLT获取到待注册ONU的注册信息并将其保存下来。
或者,而以上步骤也可以是,在本次注册过程(S101)开始前,待注册ONU曾经处于工作状态,从而OLT在工作状态中获取到待注册ONU的注册信息并将其保存下来(如以上对保存的均衡延时的修正)。
应当理解,对本次注册过程(S101)而言,其开始时待注册ONU必然是未开始注册的状态,即待注册ONU在注册(或工作)而使OLT获取到注册信息后,应当发生离线,之后才能开始本次注册过程。
其中,以上待注册ONU的注册,可以是其的首次注册,也可以是重新注册。
其中,以上待注册ONU的注册,可以采用相关技术的方式,或者,也采用本公开实施例的步骤S101的方式。
其中,这里的待注册ONU可以是支持第三波长通信的低时延ONU(第二ONU),也可以是不支持第三波长通信的非低时延ONU(第一ONU)。
在一些实施例中,参照图7,提前获取待注册ONU的注册信息的过程包括:
S1003、修改前置ONU的注册信息为待注册ONU的注册信息。
也就是说,在下发注册配置信息(S101)前,本公开实施例的方法还可包括获取注册ONU的注册信息的步骤。
作为本公开实施例的另一种方式,以上步骤也可以是,在本次注册过程(S101)开始前,OLT中已经存在对另一个ONU(前置ONU)的注册信息,而通过对该前置ONU的注册信息进行修改,也可得到待注册ONU的注册信息。
其中,以上前置ONU是一个不同于待注册ONU的ONU,且其接入到待注册ONU应连接的特定位置(如特定分支光纤)。该前置ONU可以是实际存在并曾经接入无源光网络的实体设备;或者,前置ONU也可以不是实体设备,或没有接入过无源光网络,但只要OLT能提前获得有关该前置ONU的注册信息即可。
其中,由于前置ONU与待注册ONU应连接在相同位置,故二者的均衡延时(Eqd)等信息应当是相同的。因此,以上修改主要是指,将前置ONU的注册信息中的前置ONU的身份标识,修改为待注册ONU的身份标识,或者说,修改了“身份标识-均衡延时”的对应关系;从而使前置ONU的注册信息变为 待注册ONU的注册信息。
其中,触发以上修改的方式是多样的。
例如,可以是网管通过专门的操作,向OLT发出修改信息,以修改其中存储的前置ONU的注册信息。
或者,也可以是前置ONU在注册完成后,自身向OLT发出修改信息,以修改其中存储的前置ONU的注册信息。
在一些实施例中,在修改前置ONU的注册信息为待注册ONU的注册信息(S1003)前,还包括:
S1002、完成前置ONU的注册,在注册过程中获取前置ONU的注册信息。
也就是说,在修改前置ONU的注册信息前,可以实际将前置ONU接入无源光网络,并完成注册,以使OLT在注册过程中获取针对前置ONU的注册信息,并用于后续的修改。
具体的,可以是在无源光网络已经连接有一个ONU,当后续需要将该ONU更换为另一个ONU时,可预先修改OLT中该在前ONU的注册信息,从而被更换的ONU就是前置ONU,而更换上来的新ONU就是待注册ONU。
或者,也可以是在确定要在某个位置接入待注册ONU后,先将一个特定的前置ONU(注册设备)接入该位置并进行以上修改,之后再将前置ONU更换为待注册ONU,或者同时将待注册ONU接入到该位置(例如分支光纤可具有两个端口,分别连接前置ONU和待注册ONU)。
也就是说,以上方式相当于用前置ONU使OLT提前获取待注册ONU的注册信息,再实际接入待注册ONU。
在一些实施例中,完成前置ONU的注册包括接收前置ONU发送的至少一个响应信息;其中,响应信息是通过与业务通道不同的注册通道接收的。
根据某些注册方式,ONU的注册可包括OLT与ONU间的信息交互(例如采用相关技术中的注册方式),为防止前置ONU的注册造成业务信息的时延,故前置ONU可以是支持第三波长通信的低时延ONU(第二ONU),且注册过程中,至少上行信息通过业务通道传递(因此不必在业务通道打开安静窗口)。
后续过程中下发待注册ONU的注册配置信息时,仍然可通过业务通道下发,即待注册ONU可以是不支持第三波长通信的非低时延ONU(第一ONU)。
也就是说,以上方式可以是:当要进行非低时延ONU(第一ONU)的注册时,可用低时延ONU(第二ONU)作为前置ONU,以避免非低时延ONU按照相关技术的方式进行注册,最大程度的降低业务信息的时延。
应当理解,只要注册过程中的上行信息在注册通道中发送,就没有必要在业务通道打开安静窗口,也就不会造成业务信息的时延;因此,对注册过程中下行信息的传递通道,本公开实施例不做限制。
下面对如何利用低时延ONU(支持第三波长通信的ONU、第二ONU)为前置ONU,提前获取待注册ONU的注册信息进行示例性的描述。
其中,无源光网络结构可参照图1,包括多个与OLT连接的ONU,这些ONU中一部分为低时延ONU,即图中的各ONU2,另一部分为非低时延ONU(不支持第三波长通信的ONU、第一ONU),即图中的各ONU1。
其中,业务通道为XGS-PON上下行通道,而第二ONU的注册通道为GPON上下行通道。
在一实施例中,以上过程可包括:
A101、OLT在GPON通道打开安静窗口,通过GPON下行通道广播发送身份标识请求消息。
A102、OLT通过GPON上行通道接收第二ONU发送的身份标识响应消息并关闭安静窗口,从而得到身份标识响应消息中携带的第二ONU的序列号(SN),并根据序列号得出要分配给该第二ONU的ONU ID。
A103、OLT再次在GPON上行通道打开安静窗口,通过GPON下行通道向该第二ONU发送测距请求消息。
A104、OLT在GPON上行通道接收该第二ONU发送的测距响应消息,计算出均衡延时(Eqd),从而获取到第二ONU(前置ONU)的注册信息。
A105、OLT根据以上注册信息,通过GPON下行通道给第二ONU分配ONU ID和授权带宽,且可选的,也可通过GPON下行通道将均衡延时分配给第二ONU,从而完成第二ONU的注册。
A106、OLT接收修改信息(可来自网管,或来自该第二ONU),根据修改信息将第二ONU(前置ONU)的注册信息中的序列号修改为要更换的第一ONU(待注册ONU)的序列号,从而提前得到待注册ONU的注册信息。
其中,以上第二ONU(前置ONU)的注册过程完全在注册通道进行,故不会对业务信息产生影响;而即使待注册ONU为第一ONU,则因为待注册ONU的注册过程仅包括信息“下发”,故同样不用开启安静窗口。也就是说,在整个注册过程中,业务通道均不需要打开安静窗口,完全不会对业务信息的传递造成影响。
在一些实施例中,参考图8,以上使用的第二ONU的注册通道,可仅包括 上行通道,而不包括下行通道,例如,第二ONU可仅支持XGS-PON的上行通道(λ XGS-PONu)和下行通道(λ XGS-PONd),以及GPON的上行通道(λ PONu)。
由此,在对以上第二ONU的注册过程中,对所有的第二ONU上传给OLT的信息(身份标识响应消息、测距响应消息),仍然是由OLT在注册通道打开安静窗口后接收;而所有OLT下发给第二ONU的信息(身份标识请求消息、测距请求消息、注册配置信息),则通过业务通道下发。
其中,根据以上方式,可能出现在业务通道未打开安静窗口时,有身份标识请求消息通过业务通道广播下发的情况,故若有未注册的第一ONU存在,则其可能会“误认为”该身份标识请求消息是针对自己发布的,从而错误的在业务通道反馈身份标识响应消息,与其它ONU的业务信息冲突。
为避免以上情况下,需要对注册通道中身份标识请求消息的格式进行修改,以区分针对第二ONU的身份标识请求消息和针对第一ONU的身份标识请求消息,使第一ONU不会错误的响应针对第二ONU的身份标识请求消息。其中,区分不同身份标识请求消息的具体方式是多样的,在此不再详细描述。
以上过程中OLT下发测距请求消息、注册配置信息等时,已经获取了第二ONU的身份标识,故这些信息是单播的,不存在以上问题。
第二方面,本公开实施例提供一种ONU注册的方法,用于ONU。
本公开实施例的方法,用于供ONU(即待注册ONU)实现以上注册过程。
参照图9,本公开实施例的方法包括:
S201、接收OLT下发的注册配置信息,开始进行注册。
其中,注册配置信息是OLT根据提前获取的待注册ONU的注册信息下发的,待注册ONU的注册信息是在本次注册开始之前获取的。
当ONU接入后,若OLT已经预先获取了针对该ONU的注册信息,则该ONU就是待注册ONU。从而,该ONU会直接接收到OLT下发的注册配置信息,并开始进行注册。
应当理解,以上“开始进行注册”是指,ONU只在接收到注册配置信息后,才开始自身的注册流程,而之前并没有进行发送身份标识响应消息、发送测距响应消息等步骤)。
S202、根据注册配置信息进行配置。
ONU接收到针对自身的注册配置信息后,可根据该注册配置信息的内容(如授权带宽、逻辑标识等)对自身进行配置,使自身完成注册,进入工作状态,可开始上传业务信息。
在一些实施例中,参照图10,在根据注册配置信息进行配置(S202)后,还包括:
S203、向OLT发送上线响应信息。
如前,ONU在根据注册配置信息进行完配置,进入工作状态后,可在授权带宽中向OLT发送上线响应信息,通知OLT自身注册完成。
在一些实施例中,参照图10,在接收OLT下发的注册配置信息(S201)前,还包括:
S200、向OLT发送触发信息。
如前,当ONU需要进行注册时(如接入时,或接到用户的命令时),可向OLT发出上线响应信息(如为短消息),以通知OLT开始发送注册配置信息。
第三方面,本公开实施例提供一种写入注册信息的方法,用于前置ONU。
本公开实施例的方法,用于供以上的前置ONU进行注册,并修改OLT中的前置ONU的注册信息得到待注册ONU的注册信息。
参照图11,本公开实施例的方法包括:
S301、完成注册,以供OLT获取前置ONU的注册信息。
前置ONU接入无源光网络后完成注册,其具体可采用相关技术的方式,或采用本公开实施例的步骤S101的方式,在此不再详细描述。
在注册过程中,OLT获取了针对该前置ONU的前置ONU的注册信息,例如前置ONU的身份标识为SN A,均衡延时为Eqd1,则OLT获取的前置ONU的注册信息中包括“SN A-Eqd1”的对应关系。
S302、接收对应待注册ONU的修改信息。
前置ONU接收到如何进行修改的修改信息。例如,修改信息可以是用户输入的,其中可包括待注册ONU的身份标识,例如SN B。
S303、根据修改信息,触发OLT修改前置ONU的注册信息为待注册ONU的注册信息。
前置ONU中可根据以上修改信息(如SN B),向OLT发出指令,使OLT将其中前置ONU的注册信息修改,得到待注册ONU的注册信息,例如,可以是将前置ONU的注册信息中“SN A-Eqd1”的对应关系修改为“SN B-Eqd1”。
应当理解,以上步骤S302和步骤S303可以并无必然的顺序关系,只要二者在进行步骤S303前均完成即可。
可见,此时OLT已经预先获取了待注册ONU的注册信息,故当待注册ONU 接入并进行注册时,则不必开放安静窗口,可降低时延。
应当理解,在进行注册信息的修改后,对OLT而言,前置ONU变成了“没有注册”的状态,故此时前置ONU不应再进行业务数据的传输。
可以是在完成修改后即将前置ONU从分支光纤上取下,而替换为待注册ONU。如果分支光纤具有两个端口,则也可以保留前置ONU,而将待注册ONU同时连接在另一端口上。
在一些实施例中,完成注册包括接收OLT下发的至少一个请求信息,以及向OLT发送至少一个响应信息;响应信息是通过与业务通道不同的注册通道发送的。
也就是说,前置ONU可以是低时延ONU(支持第三波长通信的ONU、第二ONU),从而其注册过程不会造成业务信息的时延。
进一步的,当待注册ONU为非低时延ONU(不支持第三波长通信的ONU、第一ONU)时,则相当于用“借用”低时延的前置ONU写入了非低时延的待注册ONU的注册信息,以保证非低时延的待注册ONU即使在首次注册时,也不对业务信息造成时延。
第四方面,参照图12,本公开实施例提供一种OLT,其包括:
存储器,其上存储有一个或多个程序,当一个或多个程序被一个或多个处理器执行,使得OLT实现上述任意一种ONU注册的方法;

第七方面,参照图15,本公开实施例提供一种注册设备,用于连接OLT, 注册设备包括:

接收模块,配置为接收对应待注册ONU的修改信息;
修改模块,配置为根据修改信息,触发OLT修改注册设备的注册信息为待注册ONU的注册信息。
本公开实施例的注册设备,可为低时延ONU(但可以没有传输业务信息的能力),该注册设备可被预先接入无源ONU,以在注册过程中使OLT预先获取自身的注册信息;并且,该注册设备还可接收用户的修改信息,以根据该修改信息,控制OLT修改注册信息(如修改身份标识),得到待注册ONU的注册信息,以供后续待注册ONU进行注册。
本领域普通技术人员可以理解,上文中所公开的全部或某些步骤、系统、装置中的功能模块/单元可以被实施为软件、固件、硬件及其适当的组合。
在硬件实施方式中,在以上描述中提及的功能模块/单元之间的划分不一定对应于物理组件的划分;例如,一个物理组件可以具有多个功能,或者一个功能或步骤可以由若干物理组件合作执行。
某些物理组件或所有物理组件可以被实施为由处理器,如中央处理器(CPU)、数字信号处理器或微处理器执行的软件,或者被实施为硬件,或者被实施为集成电路,如专用集成电路。这样的软件可以分布在计算机可读介质上,计算机可读介质可以包括计算机存储介质(或非暂时性介质)和通信介质(或暂时性介质)。如本领域普通技术人员公知的,术语计算机存储介质包括在用于存储信息(诸如计算机可读指令、数据结构、程序模块或其它数据)的任何方法或技术中实施的易失性和非易失性、可移除和不可移除介质。计算机存储介质包括但不限于随机存取存储器(Random Access Memory,RAM),更具体如同步动态随机存取内存(Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory,SDRAM)、双倍速率同步动态随机存储器(Double Data Rate,DDR)等、只读存储器(Read Only Memory,ROM)、带电可擦可编程只读存储器(Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory,EEPROM)、闪存(FLASH)或其它磁盘存储器;只读光盘(Compact Disc Read Only Memory,CD-ROM)、数字多功能盘(Digital Video Disk,DVD)或其它光盘存储器;磁盒、磁带、磁盘存储或其它磁存储器;可以用于存储期望的信息并且可以被计算机访问的任何其它的介质。此外,本领域普通技术人员公知的是,通信介质通常包含计算机 可读指令、数据结构、程序模块或者诸如载波或其它传输机制之类的调制数据信号中的其它数据,并且可包括任何信息递送介质。
