Detailed Description
In order that those skilled in the art will better understand the present application, a technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in which it is apparent that the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the application without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the application.
For the purpose of making the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the embodiments of the present application will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, in the existing network deployment, FP ONUs, 50G PON ONUs, EPON DFB ONUs, and the like coexist. The OLT receives the uplink optical signals sent by the ONUs of different types, and the uplink optical signals enter different detectors through the filter. One part of optical signals with the wavelength range of 1286+/-2 nm enter the 50G PON detector, and the other part of optical signals are filtered by the next filter to remove the part with the wavelength range of 1342+/-2 nm so as to avoid the influence of downlink reflected light and then enter the EPON detector. Thus, the wavelength range that can be detected in an EPON detector eliminates optical signals having wavelength ranges of 1342+ -2 nm and 1286+ -2 nm.
In general, the FP ONU has a center wavelength of 1310nm or around, a longitudinal mode loss in a wavelength band of 1342nm or around 1286nm, and has a small influence on the FP signal reception, and in the limit, it is necessary to increase the sensitivity of the receiver by about 4 dB.
When the upstream signal is an optical signal transmitted by a 50G PON ONU, the upstream wavelength range thereof is 1286±2nm, which can be detected by a 50G PON detector, and the EPON detector does not include 1286±2nm in the detectable range due to the filter, so that the EPON detector does not detect a corresponding optical signal. If the uplink signal is sent by an EPON DFB ONU (such as 10G EPON uplink narrowing and EPON uplink narrowing), the uplink wavelength range is 1310+/-20 nm, and the 50G PON detector is not affected. However, if the uplink signal is an optical signal sent by the FP ONU, since the uplink wavelength range thereof is 1310±50nm, when the longitudinal range thereof spans 1286nm, a small portion of the signal enters the 50G PON detector in addition to a portion thereof, thereby causing interference to the 50G PON uplink signal being communicated. To solve this problem, since the interference signal of the 50G PON is from the FP ONU, the interference of the 50G PON can be eliminated by using the correlation thereof by a certain hardware and software means.
In this embodiment, different detectors are distinguished according to the detected wavelength range, and the EPON detector can be used to detect the upstream optical signals of the EPON DFB ONU and the FP ONU, and the 50G PON detector can be used to detect the upstream optical signal of the 50G PON ONU, and also can detect a small portion of the upstream optical signal leaked due to the overlapping wavelength of the FP ONU.
In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for coexistence of a 50G PON and an FP ONU.
In an embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, a flow chart of an embodiment of a method for coexistence of a 50G PON and an FP ONU according to the present application is shown, where the method includes:
S1, the OLT discovers the FP ONU, calculates the proportion beta fponu_n,βfponu_n of the intensity of the optical signal leaked to the 50G PON detector due to the overlapping of the wavelengths of the FP ONU and the intensity of the optical signal detected by the EPON detector according to the optical power or the signal amplitude. The optical signal intensity can be represented by the optical power detected by the detector and also represented by the signal amplitude of the light detected by the detector after amplification.
In this embodiment, β fponu_n can be regarded as a parameter, and the optical power is used to represent the optical signal strength, and the calculation formula of β fponu_n is as follows:
βfponu_n=(1)
Here, the rssi_50g PON is the optical power leaked to the 50G PON detector due to the FP ONU wavelength overlapping, and the rssi_fp is the optical power detected by the EPON detector.
And S2, setting a reverse amplification ratio according to beta fponu_n, and amplifying the electric signal detected by the EPON detector in a reverse ratio to obtain an amplified result S FP2 after the reverse amplification.
SFP2= -(βfponu_n×SFP) = -SFP_noise(2)
Wherein S FP is an electrical signal received by the EPON detector and amplified, and the amplification result S FP2 may be used to eliminate the interference S FP_noise generated by the FP ONU on the 50G PON. As shown in fig. 4, in this embodiment, the amplification factor of the electric signal detected by the EPON detector is the same as that of the electric signal detected by the 50G PON detector. In other embodiments, the parameters may be modified using different magnifications, so that the resulting S FP2= -SFP_noise. In the communication process, when uplink optical signals sent by the FP ONU and the 50G PON ONU are transmitted to the OLT, an optical signal entering the 50G PON detector is composed of a 50G PON optical signal and an FP leaked optical signal, so that a signal obtained after amplification is represented by S 1, as shown in formula (3):
S1= S50G+ SFP_noise(3)
Wherein S 50G represents an electrical signal of the 50G PON after optical signal is photoelectrically converted, and S FP_noise represents an electrical signal corresponding to FP optical signal leakage interference. The optical power rssi_fp can be obtained at the EPON detector, and after being amplified and processed by the formula (2), the influence part S FP2 of the FP ONU on the 50G PON is obtained.
And S3, performing interference cancellation on the electric signals S 1 and S FP2 detected by the 50G PON detector. And removing the part of the FP ONU uplink signal light leaked to the 50G PON detector through interference cancellation processing to obtain a 50G PON electric signal, wherein the electric signal is shown in a formula (4):
S0= S1+SFP2= S50G(4)
Thus, the influence of the FP ONU on the 50G PON detection is removed, and the aim of coexistence of the FP ONU and the 50G PON ONU is fulfilled.
As shown in fig. 4, a schematic diagram of the present application for implementing reverse scaling and interference cancellation by a silence window mechanism is shown. When the TDM PON works, a silence window is opened at regular time to finish the discovery ranging of the new ONU, and if no new ONU is added, the optical power received by the OLT during the silence period is approximately 0. In this embodiment, the OLT may discover the FP ONUs in two ways.
The first way is:
when the 10G/1G EPON MAC of the OLT opens a silence window to finish the discovery ranging of a new ONU, if the intensity of the optical signal detected by the 50G PON detector changes, the newly added ONU is an FP ONU, and the change of the intensity of the optical signal is the intensity of the optical signal leaked to the 50G PON detector due to the overlapping of wavelengths.
In this embodiment, when the 10G/1G EPON MAC of the OLT opens a silence window, if the newly added ONU is an FP ONU, the received optical power rssi_50g PON of the 50G PON detector will change, which indicates that the wavelength longitudinal mode of the ONU leaks to the 50G PON detector, record the ONU ID and the MAC address or the serial number SN at this time, and find that the newly added ONU is an FP ONU, and the change amount of the optical power is the rssi_50g PON, that is, S FP_noise.
The second mode is as follows:
When the 50G PON MAC of the OLT opens a silence window and no new 50G PON ONU is added, if the intensity of the optical signal received by the 50G PON detector is not close to 0, the on-line ONU is found to be the FP ONU, and the variation of the intensity of the optical signal is the intensity of the optical signal leaked to the 50G PON detector due to the overlapping of wavelengths. Wherein an on-line ONU is an already joined ONU that is transmitting data. The 50G PON is in a silence window stage, if a new 50G PON ONU is added, the OLT receives the relevant information, so that the OLT can judge whether the new 50G PON ONU is added or not by receiving the relevant information.
In this embodiment, when the 50G PON MAC of the OLT opens the silence window and no new 50G PON ONU is added, the rssi_50g PON should be close to 0, if the variation is not close to 0, the wavelength corresponding to the FP ONU overlaps with the wavelength of the 50G PON ONU, the ONU ID at this time is recorded, the on-line ONU is found to be the FP ONU, and the received light power of the EPON optical signal detector is rssi_fp.
In the practical work, the FP ONU in the current network can be detected in both modes, and replaced, so that the FP ONU can be prevented from interfering with the 50G PON. In addition, both of the above methods can calculate the father rssi_50g PON from the optical power change of the 50G PON detector, but since the second method is to change from approximately 0, the second method is simpler to calculate the father rssi_50g PON than the first method.
As shown in fig. 4, in this embodiment, when the 10G/1G EPON MAC opens the silence window, it is determined whether the newly added ONU is an FP ONU, and it is determined whether the signal strength detected by the 50G PON detector at the OLT side is changed. If the RSSI_50G PON detected by the 50G PON detector is unchanged, the newly added ONU is not the FP ONU, and if the RSSI_50G PON detected by the 50G PON detector is changed, the newly added ONU is the FP ONU. The signal control unit can calculate and obtain the father RSSI_50G PON according to the RSSI_50G PON, and the signal control unit outputs beta fponu_n by combining with the RSSI_FP. Then, the optical signal received by the EPON detector is amplified by the EPON amplifying unit to obtain S FP, and is reversely scaled by β fponu_n output by the reverse scaling unit and the signal control unit to obtain a reverse scaling unit output result S FP2.
Because the optical signal entering the 50G PON detector consists of the 50G PON optical signal and the FP leaked optical signal, the signal obtained after being amplified by the 50G PON amplifying unit is S 1, and finally, the interference cancellation processing is carried out on S FP2 and S 1, the part of the FP ONU uplink light leaked to the 50G PON detector is removed, and the influence of the FP ONU on the 50G PON detection is removed, thereby achieving the aim of coexistence of the FP ONU and the 50G PON ONU. Wherein, the amplification factors of the EPON amplifying unit and the 50G PON amplifying unit are the same.
Further, in an embodiment, a table may be created in advance, where the table includes ONU IDs of all types of FP ONUs at the ONU end and β fponu_n corresponding to each other. After the OLT discovers the FP ONU, the OLT obtains the ONU ID of the FP ONU, and finds the corresponding β fponu_n by looking up the table.
In this embodiment, when the 50G PON MAC of the OLT opens a silence window and no new 50G PON ONU is added, the FP ONU is continuously discovered. According to the detected results of EPON detector and 50G PON detector, continuously correcting beta fponu_n by the above formula (1), recording corresponding ONU ID and beta fponu_n thereof, and forming a beta fponu_n parameter table which contains all the IDs of FP ONU and corresponding beta fponu_n. Specifically, the variation of the optical power received by the 50G PON detector is the father rssi_50g PON, and β fponu_n is continuously corrected in combination with the rssi_fp.
As shown in fig. 4, in the interference cancellation process, the 10G/1G EPON MAC receives the uplink light from the ONU, and according to the corresponding ONU ID, uses the β fponu_n parameter table formed in the previous β fponu_n parameter acquisition process to find the β fponu_n corresponding to the ONU ID, and outputs the β fponu_n parameter to the reverse scaling unit through the signal control unit, so as to set the corresponding scaling ratio. The inverse proportional amplifier inversely proportional amplifies the electric signal S FP obtained by the detection processing of the EPON detector according to the formula (2), so as to obtain S FP2. The incoming 50G PON detector signal is a 50G PON optical signal doped with an FP optical signal, and the processed signal is S 1 according to equation (3). And (3) performing interference cancellation on the S 1 and the S FP2 to obtain 50G PON electric signals, wherein the whole interference cancellation process is finished as shown in a formula (4).
Further, in the above embodiments, the process of obtaining the amplification result SFP2 and the process of performing interference cancellation on the electrical signals S 1 and S FP2 detected by the 50G PON detector may be implemented by using an analog circuit or a digital algorithm inside the DSP.
As shown in fig. 5, an embodiment of a method for obtaining β fponu_n without using a silence window mechanism is provided, which can implement loose coupling between an optical module and PON MAC. The EPON detector and the 50G PON detector continuously monitor the signal intensity of the uplink light from the ONU, when the EPON detector detects that the optical signal intensity is increased from approximately 0 burst and gradually reduced to approximately 0, and meanwhile, the 50G PON detector detects that the optical signal intensity is synchronously increased and then reduced, and the ONU is the FP ONU.
In this embodiment, the EPON detector and the 50G PON detector at the OLT continuously monitor the optical power of the upstream light from the ONU, denoted as rssi_fp and rssi_50GPON, respectively. When a certain FP ONU performs burst transmission of a data block, the on-line RSSI_FP monitored by an EPON detector is raised from approximately 0 burst when burst data starts to be transmitted, when the burst data transmission is finished, the on-line RSSI_FP monitored by the EPON detector is found to be gradually lowered to approximately 0, and if the on-line RSSI_FP monitored by a 50G PON detector is lowered after being synchronously raised, the ONU at the moment is the FP ONU. When the signal strength variation monitored by the 50G PON detector at this time is recorded as Δrssi_50g PON, β fponu_n can be obtained by using the above formula (1). The record β fponu_n and the corresponding ONU ID form a comparison table, and the subsequent reverse scaling and interference cancellation are consistent with the methods used in the above embodiments.
As shown in fig. 6, an embodiment is provided in which inverse scaling and interference cancellation are achieved by the signal amplitude of the electrical signal. In this embodiment, the manner of calculating β fponu_n is different from the above embodiment by reflecting the optical signal strength by the signal amplitude, and specifically includes amplifying the optical signal rssi_fp detected by the EPON detector after photoelectric conversion to obtain the signal amplitude am_fp of the corresponding electrical signal, and amplifying the optical signal rssi_50GPON detected by the 50G PON detector after photoelectric conversion to obtain the signal amplitude am_50G PON of the corresponding electrical signal. From the 50G PON detector, the signal amplitude father am_50g PON that leaks to the 50G PON detector due to wavelength overlap is obtained, and β fponu_n is obtained from father am_50g PON and am_fp according to the following formula:
βfponu_n=。
In this embodiment, the procedure of determining that the ONU is an FP ONU is similar to the above embodiment, when the 10G/1G EPON MAC of the OLT opens a silence window, if the newly added ONU is an FP ONU, the signal amplitude am_50g PON obtained by amplifying the newly added ONU after the 50G PON detector changes, which indicates that the wavelength longitudinal mode of the ONU leaks to the 50G PON detector, records the ONU ID and the MAC address or the serial number SN at this time, and also finds that the newly added ONU is an FP ONU, and the change amount of the signal amplitude is am_50g PON.
Or when the 50G PON MAC of the OLT opens a silence window and no new 50G PON ONU is added, if the signal amplitude AM_50G PON received and amplified by the 50G PON detector is not close to 0, the on-line ONU is found to be the FP ONU, and the variation of the signal amplitude is the AM_50G PON. In this embodiment, by associating am_50g PON with am_fp to continuously correct β fponu_n, recording the corresponding ONU ID and β fponu_n thereof, forming a table, and then searching for β fponu_n corresponding to the ONU ID by looking up a table.
In addition, the EPON detector and the 50G PON detector at the OLT continuously monitor uplink light from the ONU to perform photoelectric conversion, then the signal amplitude of the corresponding electric signal is obtained through amplification, when the signal amplitude obtained by the EPON detector is raised from approximately 0 burst, the signal amplitude is gradually reduced to approximately 0, and meanwhile, the signal amplitude obtained by the 50G PON detector is synchronously raised and then reduced, and then the ONU can be determined to be the FP ONU.
In a second aspect, based on the above method embodiment, there is provided an embodiment of an apparatus in which a 50G PON and an FP ONU coexist, the apparatus including a signal control unit, an inverse proportional amplifying unit, and an interference cancellation unit.
And a signal control unit for calculating a ratio beta fponu_n of the intensity of the optical signal leaked to the 50G PON detector due to the overlapping of the wavelengths of the FP ONU and the intensity of the optical signal detected by the EPON detector for all the intensities of the optical signals transmitted by the FP ONU when the OLT discovers the FP ONU.
And the reverse proportion amplifying unit is used for setting a reverse amplifying proportion according to beta fponu_n, and amplifying the electric signal detected by the EPON detector in a reverse proportion to obtain an amplifying result S FP2.
And the interference cancellation unit is used for performing interference cancellation on the electric signals S 1 and S FP2 detected by the 50G PON detector.
The function implementation of each module in the device corresponds to each step in the method embodiment, and the function and implementation process of each module are not described in detail herein.
In a third aspect, a system for coexistence of a 50G PON with FP ONUs is provided, which includes an EPON detector, a 50G PON detector, and the apparatus in the above-described embodiments.
And the EPON detector is used for detecting and obtaining the optical power of the FP optical signal.
And a 50G PON detector for detecting the optical power of the FP optical signal leaked by the overlapping of the FP ONU wavelengths and the optical power of the 50G PON optical signal.
The device in the above embodiment is used for calculating the ratio beta fponu_n of the intensity of the optical signal leaked to the 50G PON detector due to the overlapping of wavelengths and the intensity of the optical signal detected by the EPON detector, setting the reverse amplification ratio according to beta fponu_n, amplifying the electric signal detected by the EPON detector in a reverse ratio to obtain an amplification result S FP2, and performing interference cancellation on the electric signals S 1 and S FP2 detected by the 50G PON detector.
In the system in this embodiment, β fponu_n is calculated, and by analyzing and processing the intensities of the optical signals detected by the EPON detector and the 50G PON detector at the OLT end, the influence of the FP ONU on the 50G PON detector is removed, so as to achieve the purpose of interference cancellation. Compared with the conventional method, the method fully utilizes the software and hardware architecture of the conventional PON, effectively utilizes a large number of FP ONUs of operators, and remarkably reduces cost and power consumption.
