ONU Service Activation Through Cloud-Based Multi-Vendor Configuration
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing method for ONU service activation in GPON systems is hindered by the need for OLT-ONU interaction through OMCI messages, which varies among different manufacturers, leading to inflexible networking and increased costs due to manufacturer-specific constraints.
Innovation Solution
A method utilizing a network management cloud platform and a mobile terminal to determine OLT configuration based on ONU serial numbers and capability sets, enabling service activation configuration through a standardized process independent of OLT manufacturers.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If OLT-ONU interaction through OMCI messages is used for service activation, then service activation can be achieved, but manufacturer-specific constraints lead to inflexible networking and increased costs
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the service activation configuration process from the traditional OLT-ONU OMCI message interaction and relocates it to a cloud platform. The mobile terminal collects ONU information and uploads it to the cloud platform, which then generates and distributes configuration information to both the ONU and OLT independently, eliminating the need for complex direct OMCI interactions between OLT and ONU.
Solution Approach 2:
The cloud platform serves as an intermediary between the mobile terminal, ONU, and OLT. It receives ONU basic information from the mobile terminal, determines the corresponding OLT, generates service activation configuration information, and distributes it to both devices, thereby simplifying the interaction process and enabling manufacturer-independent service activation.
2Adaptability or versatility
If manufacturer-specific OMCI interactions are required, then service activation can be performed, but intercommunication between different manufacturers' OLTs and ONUs is restricted
Solution Approach 1:
The cloud platform provides a universal service activation mechanism that works across different manufacturers' OLTs and ONUs. By collecting ONU basic information (including serial number and capability set data) and generating standardized configuration information, the system enables any ONU to be activated on any compatible OLT without manufacturer-specific constraints, achieving multi-vendor interoperability.
3Ease of manufacture
If traditional OLT-dependent service activation is used, then service activation can be achieved, but networking costs increase due to manufacturer-specific constraints
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables self-service service activation where the mobile terminal autonomously collects ONU basic information, uploads it to the cloud platform, and receives generated configuration information. The ONU and OLT then automatically apply the configuration information independently, eliminating the need for manual technician intervention and complex OMCI message interactions, thereby reducing deployment costs and simplifying operations.

AI summary
The present invention provides an optical network unit (ONU) service activation method, an electronic device, and a computer-readable storage medium. The method is applied to a mobile terminal, and comprises: sending a query request to an ONU; receiving query response information which is sent by the ONU in response to the query request and carries a device serial number and device capability set data, and sending, to a network management cloud platform, a data report request carrying the device serial number and the device capability set data, so that the network management cloud platform determines, according to the device serial number, an optical line terminal (OLT) corresponding to the ONU, and determines, according to the device capability set data, first service activation configuration information sent to the OLT and second service activation configuration information sent to the mobile terminal; and receiving the second service activation configuration information from the network management cloud platform, and sending to the ONU an upload configuration request carrying the second service activation configuration information, so that the ONU performs service activation configuration in response to the upload configuration request.
