Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a method for measuring optical power, an optical line terminal and an optical network unit, belonging to the communication field. The method comprises the following steps: generating physical layer operations and maintenance (PLOAM) information which comprises identification of ONUs to be measured and information of time intervals distributed to the ONUs to be measured and used for transmitting upstream optical signals; transmitting the PLOAM information to a plurality of ONUs; receiving the upstream optical signal transmitted by ONUs to be measured in the distributed time intervals; and detecting the received upstream optical signals and determining the optical power of the upstream optical signals. The invention avoids bandwidth wastage caused by bandwidth for optical power detection assigned by a DBA module to the ONUs to be measured in the process of optical power detection in the prior art.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communications, in particular to a method for measuring optical power, an optical line terminal and an optical network unit. Background technique [0002] With the gradual decline in the cost of optical fiber transmission, the optical fiber of the access network is an inevitable development trend. The access network segment that represents the "last mile" part has requirements for ultra-low cost, simple structure, and easy implementation, which brings great challenges to technical implementation. The PON (Passive Optical Network, passive optical network) uses passive components and is the most promising technology for realizing broadband optical access networks. [0003] The passive optical network is usually composed of an optical line terminal (Optical Line Terminal, OLT) located in the central office and a series of optical network units (ONU) located in the user's premises. Optical Distribution Network (ODN)...
