新接入到 PON端口的 ONT在正常使用之前,需要经过 ONT激活过程,激活 过程是在 ONT被允许接入 PON系统之前, OLT和 ONT之间执行的一系列操作。 吉比特无源光网络(Gigabit-capable Passive Optical Network, GPON ) 的 ONT 激活过程包括: 参数学习、 序列号 ( Serial Number, SN )获取和测距。 SN是 ONT的唯一标识。 在激活过程中, ONT的状态主要有 5种:
1、 初始状态, 该状态下 ONT被启用。
2、 等待状态, ONT接收到 OLT下发的下行数据帧后进入等待状态, 该状 态下 ONT等待 OLT下发网络配置参数。
3、 序列号获取状态, ONT接收 OLT下发的网络配置参数后进入等待序列 号获取状态; 该状态下 ONT响应 OLT获取序列号的请求。
4、 测距状态, ONT接收到 OLT分配的光网络单元的编号( Optical Network Unit Identifier, ONU-ID )后进入测距状态; 该状态下 ONT响应 OLT的测距请 求。 测距的目的在于测量 ONT到 OLT之间的逻辑距离。
5、 工作状态, ONT接收到 OLT发送的测距结果后进入工作状态; 该状态 下 ONT正常接收和发送数据。
当 ONT处于测距状态时, OLT会给 ONT分配测距带宽, 同时开启静默窗
(Quite Window)禁止其他处于工作状态的 ONT发送数据。 静默窗开启期间 OLT 不给处于工作状态的其他 ONT分配带宽,因此其他 ONT在静默窗开启期间的上 行发送被暂停, 主要目的是避免新接入的 ONT在激活的过程中与正在工作的 ONT同时发送数据,造成上行发送沖突从而导致 OLT无法正常接收到测距 ONT 的测距应答。 所以 OLT开静默窗越多, 对处于工作状态的 ONT的业务转发影响 越大。
当出现多个 ONT同时接入到 OLT的 GPON端口, ONT会对所述新接入的多 个 ONT发起激活过程, OLT对 ONT逐一进行测距。 OLT对 ONT启动一次测距请 求会同时开启一次静默窗。 开启静默窗口时会禁止接在同一个 GPON端口下正 常工作的 ONT发送数据, 直到 OLT正确接收到新接入的 ONT的测距应答, 才会 重新分配带宽给处于正常工作状态的 ONT, 并允许上述处于正常工作状态的 ONT向 OLT发送数据。
不过, 采用现有的测距方法时, 如果有 n个 ONT同时接入到 OLT的 GPON 端口, 总的测距时间就是一个 ONT的测距时间 n倍, 此将造成新接入的 ONT激 活的时间长, 业务恢复时间也长。 由于 OLT每对 ONT启动一次测距请求会开启 一次静默窗口。 若 OLT需要对 n个 ONT进行测距, 那么同一 PON口下处于正常 工作状态的 ONT就会被停止发送数据 n次, 造成处于正常工作状态的 ONT业务 中断时间长。 发明内容

下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清 楚、 完整地描述, 显然, 所描述的实施例仅仅是本发明一部分实施例, 而不是 全部的实施例。基于本发明中的实施例, 本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造 性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例, 都属于本发明保护的范围。
PON系统可以为 GPON系统或者 XGPON系统, 其包括位于局端的 OLT、位于用 户侧的多个 ONT以及位于 OLT和 ONT之间的 ODN。 其中, 所述 OLT通过 ODN 以点到多点的方式连接到所述多个 ONT。 比如, ODN可以包括无源光分路器, 无源光分路器可以包括至少一个公共端和多个分支端,其中该公共端可以通过 主干光纤连接到 OLT的 PON端口(比如 GPON端口), 每个分支端可以通过分支 光纤对应地连接到所述 ONU。 其中, 从 OLT到 ONT的方向为下行方向,从 ONT 到 OLT的方向为上行方向; 在下行方向, OLT采用时分复用的方式将下行数据 广播给 ONT, 各个 ONT只接收携带有其自身标识的下行数据; 在上行方向, 所 述多个 ONT通过时分多址的方式将上行数据发送给 OLT。为保证 ONT正常接入 到 PON系统, 在 ONT上线时, OLT需要对 ONT进行测距, 如果存在多个 ONT 同时上线时, OLT需要对此多个 ONT进行测距。
为避免由于 PON端口或者主干光纤故障而造成业务终端, 实现端口保护, 如图 2所示, PON系统的 OLT可以设置有主用 PON端口和备用 PON端口,且 PON 系统的 ODN还可以采用 2: N的无源光分路器, 即无源光分路器可以具有两个 公共端, 其中一个公共端通过第一主干光纤连接到 OLT的主用 PON端口, 另一 个公共端通过第二主干光纤连接到 0LT的备用 P0N端口。 在正常情况下, 0LT 只有主用 P0N端口是工作的,备用 P0N端口处于备用状态, 当主用 PON端口或 第一主干光纤发生故障时, OLT可以将业务倒换到备用 PON端口以恢复 ONT业 务转发。 不过, 为保证 ONT可以正常地接入到备用 PON端口, OLT需要在倒换 到备用 PON端口时需要对原接入到主用 PON端口的 ONT进行重新测距,测距完 成之后才能进行 ONT业务转发。
本发明实施例提供了一种无源光网络的测距方法, 如图 3所示, 包括: 201 : 光线路终端 OLT确定在一个 PON端口下需要进行测距的光网络终端 ONT数量, 上述需要进行测距的 ONT数量大于或等于两个;
以吉比特无源光网络 GPON系统为例, 在 PON端口下需要进行测距的可以 是在一个 GPON端口下所有等待上线的 ONT,上述所有等待上线的 ONT数量大 于或等于两个; 比如, 上述步骤 201中, OLT可以确定在所述 GPON端口下同一 类型等待上线的 ONT的数量, 上述同一类型等待上线的 ONU的数量大于或等 于两个。
可选地, 上述步骤 201中, OLT确定在一个 PON端口下需要进行测距的光 网络终端 ONT数量可以包括: OLT通过所述 PON端口向接入到所述 PON端口的 ONT发送序列号请求消息, 请求新接入的 ONT发送 ONT自身的序列号(即 ONT 序列号); 新接入的 ONT接收到该请求消息之后, 将响应该请求消息并向 OLT 返回其自身的序列号; OLT接收新接入的 ONT发送的序列号, 确定上述序列号 对应的所有 ONT为本次测距周期中需要进行测距的 ONT, 或者, OLT也可以在 距的 ONT。
可替代地, 上述步骤 201可能发生在 OLT进行端口主备倒换时, 比如, 当 主用 PON端口或者主干光纤出现故障时, OLT可能需要将主用 PON端口的业务 切换到备用 PON端口,也即是将备用 PON端口切换为主用 PON端口。 为保证原 来接入到主用 PON端口的所有 ONT在进行端口主备倒换之后都可以在备用 PON端口下正常工作, OLT需要在备用 PON端口对原接入到主用 PON端口的所 有 ONT进行重新测距, 因此, 在这种情况下, OLT可以将原来接入到主用 PON 端口的所有 ONT确定为本次测距周期中需要进行测距的 ONT, 或者, OLT也可 以将原来接入到主用 PON端口的所有 ONT中选择至少两个 ONT作为本次测距 周期中需要进行测距的 ONT。
202: 为至少两个 ONT分配测距带宽并通过同一个下行帧将测距带宽信息 提供给所述至少两个 ONT;
可选地, 上述步骤 202中, OLT可以在一个测距周期内同时为两个以上的 ONT分配测距带宽, 比如, OLT可以在同一个授权周期内为同一个 PON端口下 所有需要进行测距的 ONT分配测距带宽, 如果需要进行测距的 ONT数量较多, 也可以将所述 ONT分成两个或多个测距周期进行测距,即在一个测距周期内仅 为其中部分 ONT分配测距带宽,其他 ONT可以在下一个或者后续的测距周期再 分配测距带宽。
进一步地, OLT可以将为所述至少两个 ONT分配的测距带宽的信息(即所 述至少两个 ONT的测距带宽信息)承载在同一个下行帧, 并将所述下行帧发送 给所述至少两个 ONT。 其中, 所述下行帧可以包括至少两个测距带宽字段, 所 述至少两个测距带宽字段分别用于承载所述至少两个 ONT的测距带宽信息,所 述测距带宽信息可以包括 ONT标识信息(比如 ONT序列号或者 ONT ID或者其 他标识信息)、 起始时间(Start Time)和结束时间(Stop Time)。 在具体实施例中, OLT给每个 ONT分配的测距带宽长度可以是 13个字节,即 ONT返回的测距应答 的长度可以是 13个字节, 比如, 所述测距带宽信息中起始时间可以是 X, 而结 束时间便是 X+12, 其中 X为在上行帧中以字节表示的时间信息。 可替代地, 所 述测距带宽信息也包括 ONT标识信息、 起始时间和授权带宽长度 (Grant Size)。
并且, OLT可以在所述至少两个 ONT的测距带宽之间设定的固定的时间间 授权给任何一个 ONT进行测距应答或者发送其他上行消息。相对应地,在所述 下行帧中, 相邻的测距带宽字段之间具有设定的间隔; 或者, 在一种替代实施 例中,所述至少两个 ONT的测距带宽字段均匀分布在上述一个下行帧中,且相 邻测距带宽字段之间不设置间隔; 或者, 在另一种替代实施例中, 所述至少两 个 ONT的测距带宽字段之间的间隔可以为随机间隔值。需要说明的是在一个下 行帧中承载两个或者两个以上的测距带宽信息的方案有很多,以上三种举例不 应理解为对本发明实施例的限定。
203: 开启在所述至少两个 ONT的测距过程中暂停其他 ONT的上行发送的 静默窗 (Quite Window)。
其中, 所述静默窗可以是不对其他 ONT的上行业务进行带宽授权的时间 段,用于在所述至少两个 ONT的测距过程中暂停其他 ONT的上行发送。在具体 实施例中, 所述静默窗可以与所述至少两个 ONT的测距带宽相对应, 比如, 所 述静默窗的时间长度可以为 OLT为所述至少两个 ONT分配的测距带宽的总长 长度加上相邻 ONT的测距过程之间必要的时间间隔 (可以通过所述下行帧中相 邻测距带宽字段之间设置的间隔进行指定), 所述静默窗的起始时间可以对应 于所述至少两个 ONT中第一个 ONT的测距带宽的起始时间,而所述静默窗的结 束时间可以对应于所述至少两个 ONT中最后一个 ONT的测距带宽的结束时间。 当然,在配置所述静默窗时需要根据实际网络需要考虑 ONT与 OLT之间的光纤 链路延迟。
204: 在上述静默窗之内接收所述至少两个 ONT的测距应答, 并依据所述 测距应答的回应时刻计算所述至少两个 ONT的测距结果。
在具体实施例中, 用户侧的 ONT在接收到 OLT发送的下行帧之后, 可以根 据所述下行帧中测距带宽字段携带的 ONT标识信息获取到 OLT授权给自身的 测距带宽信息 (如果 ONT没有找到对应的 ONT标识信息, 则可以获知 OLT并没 有授权其在本次测距周期中进行测距应答), 接着, 所述至少两个被 OLT进行 测距带宽授权的 ONT可以根据 OLT为其分配的测距带宽的起始时间和结束时 间(或授权带宽长度), 在所述静默窗之内分别向 OLT发送测距应答。 OLT可以 在所述静默窗时间段内接收到所述至少两个 ONT的测距应答,并记录在所述测 距应答的回应时刻。 进一步地, OLT可以根据所述至少两个 ONT的测距应答的 回应时刻, 计算出所述至少两个 ONT的测距结果, 比如计算出所述至少两个 ONT与 OLT之间的 巨离,
等。
采用本发明实施例方案, 在一个下行帧中为两个以上的 ONT分配测距带 宽, 并开启静默窗;在上述静默窗时间段内接收上述两个以上的 ONT的测距应 答; 该方案通过开启一个静默窗对两个以上的 ONT进行测距,可以提升对多个 ONT进行测距的效率,从而减少新接入 ONT的激活时间和业务恢复时间,减少 正常工作状态的 ONT业务中断时间。
进一步地, 上述方法还可以包括: 将计算的测距结果发送给与测距结果对 应的 ONT, 所述 ONT可以根据所述测距结果(比如 Eqd)调整其时间参数。 在本 使是理中, 将测距结果发送给 ONT可以使 ONT进入工作状态。 需要说明的是, 不发送测距结果不影响 OLT侧的实现, 因此对于 OLT而言发送测距结果不是一 个必要过程, 不应将发送测距结果理解为对本实施例的限定。
进一步地, 当上述测距方法应用在 OLT端口保护倒换的场景时, 上述 OLT 确定在一个 PON端口下需要进行测距的 ONT数量之前还包括: 检测主用 PON 端口或主干光纤是否出现故障,如果出现故障, OLT的 PON端口进行主备倒换, 将备用 PON端口切换为主用 PON端口。
如图 4所示, 图 4为本发明实施例测距带宽分配及测距应答时序示意图,在 图 4所示横向箭头表示时间轴, 在 OLT侧示意了下行帧N~N+2, 执行步骤 202 时采用以上方案, 在下行帧 N中为 ONT 0~ONT n分配带宽为: ONT O: 起始时 间 =X0, 结束时间 =X0+12 ONT n: 起始时间 =Χη, 结束时间 =Χη+12。 在开 静默窗的时间段内接收到 ONT 0-ΟΝΤ η回复的测距应答。
为更好理解本发明实施例,以下分别通过 ΟΝΤ新接入的测距和 OLT端口保 护倒换时的测距的具体实现,对本发明实施例提供的无源光网络的测距方法进 行进一步的介绍。 的场景。 如图 5所示, 在 ΟΝΤ新接入的场景下, 所述无源光网络的测距方法包 括: 401: OLT周期性请求新接入到某个 PON端口的 ONT发送 ONT序列号。
402: OLT接收到一个或者多个新接入的 ONT发送的 ONT序列号。
403: 当接收到多个 ONT发送的 ONT序列号时, OLT选择需要测距的至少 两个 ONT,分别给所述至少两个 ONT分配测距带宽,并通过同一个下行帧将测 距带宽信息提供给所述至少两个 ONT。需要测距的 ONT选择方案以及测距带宽 的分配方案可以参考图 2所示实施例的方案。
404: OLT开启静默窗, 暂停在所述 PON端口下其他 ONT在所述至少两个
ONT的测距过程的上行发送。
405: OLT在所述静默窗内, 接收所述至少两个 ONT的测距应答。
406: OLT根据所述至少两个 ONT的测距应答的回应时刻,计算 ONT和 OLT 之间的距离, 得到测距结果。
408: 所述至少两个 ONT进入正常工作状态。
另外, 应当理解, 在具体实现上, 如果 OLT在步骤 402中只有一个新接入 的 ONT时,可以采用现有方案对该接入的 ONT分配测距带宽并测距,此处不再 赘述。
采用本发明实施例方案, 多个新接入的 ONT同时接入到同一个 PON端口, ONT从序列号应答到正常工作的时间可以有效地缩短。假设每次 ONT测距需要 2ms, PON端口下新接入 64个 ONT, 使用上述实施例提供的方案后, 全部 ONT 上线时间比原来减少 2*64-2ms=126ms。 另外, 由于多个新上线的 ONT同时接 入到同一个 PON端口,采用上述实施例对同一个 PON端口下的其他 ONT业务影 响小。 假设每次开静默窗为 250us, PON端口下新接入 64个 ONT时, 采用本发 明实施例对正常工作的 ONT的业务影响最大减少 250us*64-250us=15750us。 端口保护倒换的场景。 如图 6所示, 在 OLT进行保护倒换的接入的场景下, 所 述无源光网络的测距方法包括:
501 : OLT的主用 PON端口或者主干光纤出现故障时, OLT对 PON端口进 行主备倒换,将备用 PON端口切换为新的主用 PON端口,从而将业务切换到备 用 PON端口。
502: OLT确定需要测距的 ONT, 并分别给至少两个需要测距的 ONT分配 测距带宽, 并通过同一个下行帧将测距带宽信息提供给所述至少两个 ONT。
比如, 在 OLT切换到备用 PON端口之后, 原来接入到主用 PON端口的所有
ONT都需要进行重新测距, OLT可以将上述 ONT确定为需要测距的 ONT, 并在 一个测距周期之内为所有 ONT分配测距带宽, 可替代地, OLT也可以选择其中 一部分 ONT作为本次测距周期中需要测距的 ONT, 并为此部分 ONT分配测距 带宽, 其余 ONT可等待下次测距周期再进行测距。
503: OLT开启静默窗, 暂停在所述 PON端口下其他 ONT在所述至少两个
ONT的测距过程的上行发送。
504: OLT在所述静默窗内, 接收所述至少两个 ONT的测距应答。
505: OLT根据所述至少两个 ONT的测距应答的回应时刻,计算 ONT和 OLT 之间的距离, 得到测距结果。
506: OLT把测距结果分别发送给被测距的所述至少两个 ONT。
507: 所述至少两个在新的主用 PON端口进入正常工作状态。
采用本发明实施例方案, 在端口保护的场景下, 主端口故障, 备用端口变 成新的主端口, ONT的重新测距时间短, 从而业务恢复时间快。
通过上述实施例提供的无源光网络的测距方法的描述可以看出,本发明实 基于上述测距方法, 本发明实施例还提供了一种光线路终端, 其包括如图 7所 示的测距装置, 所述测距装置包括:
确定单元 601 , 用于确定在一个 PON端口下需要进行测距的光网络终端 ONT数量, 上述需要进行测距的 ONT数量大于或等于两个;

计算单元 605 ,用于依据所述至少两个 ONT的测距应答 (比如所述测距应答 的回应时刻), 计算所述至少两个 ONT的测距结果。
采用本发明实施例方案, 在一个下行帧中为两个以上的 ONT分配测距带 宽, 并开启静默窗;在上述静默窗时间段内接收上述两个以上的 ONT的测距应 答; 采用该方案通过一个静默窗对两个以上的 ONT进行测距,可以提升对多个 ONT进行测距的效率,从而减少新接入 ONT的激活时间和业务恢复时间,减少 正常工作状态的 ONT业务中断时间。
可选地, 上述确定单元 601 , 具体用于确定所有等待上线的 ONT数量, 上 述所有等待上线的 ONT数量大于或等于两个; 比如, 确定单元 601可以具体用 于确定同一类型等待上线的 ONT的数量, 上述同一类型等待上线的 ONU的数 量大于或等于两个。
比如, 在一种实施例中, 如图 8所示, 上述确定单元 601包括: 请求发送单 元 701和序列号接收单元 702;

上述序列号接收单元 702, 用于接收新接入的 ONT发送的序列号, 并将所 述 ONT序列号对应的 ONT确定为需要测距的 ONT;
其中, 所述序列号接收单元 702接收到的 ONT序列号对应的所有 ONT可以
ONT作为某个测距周期中需要测距的 ONT。
如图 9所示, 在一种实施例中, 所述测距装置还可以包括:
第一结果发送单元 801 , 用于将所述至少两个 ONT的测距结果分别发送给 与测距结果对应的 ONT。
可选地, 在另一种实施例中, 如图 10所示, 所述测距装置还可以包括: 倒换控制单元 901 ,用于在 OLT的主用 PON端口或者主干光纤出现故障时, 控制对 OLT的 PON端口进行主备倒换,将备用 PON端口切换为新的主用 PON端 口, 从而将主用 PON端口的业务切换到备用 PON端口;
第二结果发送单元 902,用于在测距结果计算完毕后,将所述至少两个 ONT 的测距结果发送给与测距结果对应的 ONT。
其中, 在图 10所示的实施例中, 确定单元 601可以具体用于在 OLT切换到 备用 PON端口之后, 将原接入到主用 PON端口的所有 ONT确定为需要测距的 ONT, 且分配单元 602可以具体用于在一个测距周期之内为所有 ONT分配测距 带宽。
可替代地, 确定单元 601可以具体用于在 OLT切换到备用 PON端口之后, 将原来接入到主用 PON端口的所有 ONT中选择一部分 ONT作为本次测距周期 中需要测距的 ONT, 并且分配单元 602可以具体用于在一个测距周期之内为所 有 ONT分配测距带宽为确定单元 601选择的此部分 ONT分配测距带宽, 以实现 对此部分 ONT的测距。 另外, 确定单元 601还可以用于在下次测距周期选择其 他 ONT的部分或者全部作为需要测距的 ONT, 并且分配单元 602还可以用于在 下次测距周期将确定单元 601重新选择的 ONT分配测距带宽, 以实现对重新选 择的 ONT进行测距。
在上述各个实施例中, 可选地, 所述下行帧可以包括至少两个测距带宽字 段,每个测距带宽字段分别用于承载其中一个 ONT的测距带宽信息。并且上述 分配单元 602, 在将所述至少两个 ONT的测距带宽信息分别承载在所述下行帧 的测距带宽字段时,可以在所述下行帧中相邻的测距带宽字段之间设置固定的 间隔; 或者, 上述分配单元 602可以所述至少两个 ONT的测距带宽字段均匀分 布在上述一个下行帧中, 且相邻测距带宽字段之间不设置间隔; 或者, 所述至 少两个 ONT的测距带宽字段之间的间隔可以设置为随机间隔值。
在一种实施例中, 所述分配单元 602可以包括:
带宽分配子单元, 用于在所述需要进行测距的 ONT中选择至少两个 ONT, 并对选择的至少两个 ONT分配测距带宽;
帧生成子单元,用于将所述至少两个 ONT的测距带宽信息承载在同一个下 行帧, 并将所述下行帧发送给所述至少两个 ONT,其中所述下行帧包括多个测 距带宽字段, 每个测距带宽字段分别用于承载其中一个 ONT的测距带宽信息。 在一种实施例中, 所述静默窗控制单元 603开启的静默窗可以是不对其他 ONT的上行业务进行带宽授权的时间段,用于在所述至少两个 ONT的测距过程 中暂停其他 ONT的上行发送。在具体实施例中,所述静默窗可以与所述至少两 个 ONT的测距带宽相对应, 比如, 所述静默窗的时间长度可以为 OLT为所述至 少两个 ONT分配的测距带宽的总长度,或者,所述静默窗的时间长度也可以为 所述至少两个 ONT的测距带宽的总长度加上相邻 ONT的测距过程之间必要的 时间间隔(可以通过所述下行帧中相邻测距带宽字段之间设置的间隔进行指 定), 所述静默窗的起始时间可以对应于所述至少两个 ONT中第一个 ONT的测 距带宽的起始时间, 而所述静默窗的结束时间可以对应于所述至少两个 ONT 中最后一个 ONT的测距带宽的结束时间。
采用本发明实施例方案,多个新接入的 ONT同时接入到 OLT的同一个 PON 端口, ONT从序列号应答到正常工作的时间可以有效地缩短。 假设每次 ONT 测距需要 2ms, PON端口下新接入 64个 ONT, 使用本发明实施例提供的 OLT 后, 全部 ONT上线时间比原来减少 2*64-2ms=126ms。 另外, 由于多个新上线 的 ONT同时接入到 OLT的同一个 PON端口,采用上述实施例对同一个 PON端口 下的其他 ONT业务影响小。 假设每次开静默窗为 250us, PON端口下新接入 64 个 ONT时, 采用本发明实施例对正常工作的 ONT的业务影响最大减少 250us*64-250us=15750us。 在端口保护的场景下, 主端口故障, 备用端口变成 新的主端口, ONT的重新测距时间短, 从而业务恢复时间快。
本领域普通技术人员可以理解实现上述实施例方法中的全部或部分步骤 是可以通过程序来指令相关的硬件完成,上述的程序可以存储于一种计算机可 读存储介质中, 上述提到的存储介质可以是只读存储器, 磁盘或光盘等。 以上对本发明实施例所提供的光网络终端的测距方法和光线路终端进行 以上实施例的说明只是用于帮助理解本发明的方法及其核心思想; 同时,对于 本领域的一般技术人员,依据本发明的思想,在具体实施方式及应用范围上均 会有改变之处, 综上, 本说明书内容不应理解为对本发明的限制。
