Description

Optical network transmission processing method, device and system The present application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application entitled "Optical Network Transmission Processing Method, Apparatus and System" submitted to the Chinese Patent Office on April 1, 2008, application number 200810103216.5 The entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical field

Embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to an optical network transmission processing method, apparatus, and system. Background technique

With the development of communication technology, fiber access technology has determined its future as the ultimate solution for broadband access network technology due to its huge capacity and long-distance transmission. There are various configurations of the existing fiber access network, such as PON (Passive Optical Network), AON (Active Optical Network), and the like.

The existing fiber access network mostly adopts point-to-multipoint optical fiber transmission and access technology, taking the PON configuration as an example. The network architecture is generally as shown in FIG. 1 and may include an OLT 100 (Optical Line Terminal). ;), ONU 200 (Optical Network Unit), and a passive optical splitter (Splitter) 300. The OLT 100 is a central office device set on the service side of the network operator; the ONU 200 is a terminal device on the user side of the network; the ONU 200 and the OLT 100 are connected by the optical splitter 300, and the OLT 100 and the optical splitter 300 are connected. The main fibers are connected to each other, and the branch fibers are connected between the ONU 200 and the optical splitter 300. The plurality of branch fibers are merged in the optical splitter 300 and fused together to the main fibers. At present, GPON (Gigabit PON, Gigabit Passive Optical Network) has high bandwidth efficiency, and its synchronous timer mechanism follows the traditional SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy), and its adopted GEM. (G-PON Encapsulation Method, Gigabit Passive Optical Network Encapsulation Method) can adapt to many advantages such as different speed services, so it gradually becomes a national operation. The provider currently uses the most access network.

In the existing GPON implementation, the OLT sends downlink messages to the ONU, and the message interaction of uploading uplink messages to the OLT through the ONU controls and carries the data transmission. The manner in which the OLT and the ONU can interact is as follows: First, the OLT broadcasts and sends the probe message of the set format to all the ONUs connected thereto; after receiving the probe message, the ONU sends a response message to the OLT, so that the OLT recognizes the existence of the ONU. Then, the registration process of the ONU to the OLT is completed; after the registration is completed, the ONU generally reports its performance attributes to the OLT through the OMCI (ONU Management and Control Interface) channel, for example, the uplink rate can be reported. ; Normal data transfer is possible after registration. In the above-mentioned message interaction, the uplink or downlink message of each interaction needs to be encapsulated according to a certain protocol and then sent. When receiving the uplink or downlink message, the OLT or the ONU needs to parse and decapsulate according to a certain protocol. Wait for processing to correctly identify the message content.

In carrying out the process of the present invention, the inventors have found that the prior art has at least the following problems:

At present, the increasing user service has led to an increasing demand for data transmission. With the development of fiber optic equipment technology, more advanced fiber access network technologies, such as

10G or higher-speed optical modules have emerged, facilitating the evolution of existing GPONs to higher-speed PONs. The more advanced and high-speed passive optical access networks can be collectively referred to as NGPON (Next Generation PON). ). The service provider side network element device such as the OLT in the upgraded NGPON can be connected to more user side network element devices. For example, the maximum branch ratio of the OLT and the ONU supported by the original GPON system is 1:64, and the existing supportable branches are available. The ratio is up to 1: 512 or 1: 1024, and it can transmit more data streams at the same time, but the identification and address that the original protocol can assign to the ONU and the data stream limits the number of ONUs and the number of data streams, so the fiber access network is common. Facing the problem of expansion. high speed

The ONU has a larger uplink rate. Therefore, the physical layer characteristics are different. For example, a longer physical layer overhead is required to effectively perform power threshold decision and clock recovery. The frame format of the uplink message and the downlink message needs to be adjusted. The operation management and configuration are also different. The corresponding protocol needs to be parsed by different protocols. In addition, the uplink message is used. There are also corresponding changes to the encapsulation/decapsulation protocol of the downstream message. In the current fiber access network expansion solution, from the perspective of reducing costs and making full use of existing investments, it is often impossible to replace all existing user side network element devices, especially ONUs. Therefore, how to implement the coexistence compatibility between the existing user-side network element device and the user-side network element device after the capacity expansion is an urgent problem to be solved.

The optical network transmission processing method provided by the embodiments of the present invention can be applied to compatible coexistence of multiple types of user-side network element devices for data transmission based on different data transmission technologies, for example, coexistence of GPON network element devices and NGPON network element devices. The problem is that the NGPON may be 10G-GPON, WDM-PON (Wavelength Division Multiplexing - PON), Hybrid-PON (Hybrid PON), or the like. For the sake of clarity, the following ONU based on GPON technology is called G-ONU. The ONU based on NGPON technology is called NG_ONU.

First optical network transmission processing method embodiment 1

FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a first embodiment of an optical network transmission processing method according to the present invention. The embodiment is applicable to a case where a frame format specified by a data transmission protocol used by the GPON technology and the NGPON technology is different, specifically The method performed by the OLT on the service provider side, and the method for processing the transmission specifically includes:

Step 110: The OLT generates two types of detection messages, where the frame formats of the two types of detection messages respectively correspond to different data transmission protocol settings, and different types of identification codes are respectively set in the two types of detection messages, and the OLT sends various types of detection codes to the ONU. The downlink message frame format generally includes two parts, a frame overhead part and a payload part, where the payload part needs to be encapsulated. In this step, the OLT may specifically set the first time for the G-ONU in the frame overhead part of a type of probe message. A type value, such as "0x85B3" as the type identification code, and a second type value for the NG-ONU, such as "0xB5983" as the type identification code;

Step 120: The OLT performs corresponding encapsulation according to different data transmission protocols according to the type identification code set in the type detection message. When the type identification code is set to the first type value, the Ploam message is encapsulated by using the G-PLOAM format, and then multiplexed to the GTC downlink. The message frame is delivered, and when the type identifier code is set to the second type value, the ploam message is encapsulated by using the NG-PLOAM format, and then multiplexed into the NG-GTC downlink message frame to be delivered;

Step 130: The OLT broadcasts the encapsulated two types of probe messages to all ONUs connected to the local device to indicate that when each ONU parses and obtains the corresponding type of probe message, the type identifier code is set in the type identifier message and returned to the OLT. OLT;

In the above step 130, two types of probe messages can be received by all ONUs connected to the OLT. For G-ONU and NG-ONU, the type detection message can only be parsed based on one of its own data transmission protocols, ie: because the format of the type detection message corresponding to different data transmission protocols is different, the ONU can receive it. All types of probe messages, but only one type of probe message can be parsed. Then, the G-ONU will discard the type detection message based on the NGPON protocol encapsulation because it cannot be parsed. Similarly, the NG-ONU will discard the type detection message based on the GPON protocol encapsulation because it cannot be parsed. In fact, each ONU can only solve the solution correctly. Extract a type of probe message. Of course, in step 120, the OLT should further encapsulate the data transmission protocol according to the different data transmission protocol indicated by the type identification code set in the type detection message, if a data transmission type is set in a certain type of detection message. The type identification code, but with another data transfer protocol setting and encapsulation, will prevent any ONU from parsing any type of probe message in the case of this crossover setting. After the ONU correctly parses and obtains the corresponding type of probe message, the type identifier is set in the generated type identification message according to the protocol, and the type identification message is uploaded to the OLT.

Step 140: When the OLT receives the type identification message uploaded by each ONU, parse the acquisition type identification code from the type identification message.

Step 150: The OLT identifies the type of data transmission supported by the ONU according to the type identification code, that is, determines whether the ONU is based on the GPON technology or the NGPON technology, and can continue to perform the data transmission operation of the uplink message and the downlink message after correctly identifying each ONU data transmission type.

The specific implementation manners of the foregoing step 140 and the step 150 are: when the OLT receives and detects that a specified field in the uplink message frame overhead field is a set value, for example, a first type value, parsing according to a frame format of the GTC uplink message, Demultiplexing the GEM frame for decapsulation, and parsing when there is a PLOAM message; when detecting that the specified field in the frame overhead field is the second type value, parsing according to the frame format of the NG-GTC uplink message, The demultiplexed NG-GEM frame is decapsulated, and parsed when there is an NG-PLOAM message.

In this embodiment, because only the ONUs of the corresponding data transmission type can parse and obtain the corresponding type identification codes and upload them to the OLT, each type of ONU only uploads a type identification message corresponding to its own data transmission type, so the above steps can implement the OLT. Identify the type of each ONU.

In a specific application, the original message can be utilized, for example, the message is determined by a delimiter, and the P name is "Upstream-Overhead" PLOAM (Physical Layer Operation Administration and Maintenance) message as a type setting command. The OLT for the ONU newly connected to it, usually before the ONU is registered Send the "Upstream_Overhead" message, the general format of the GTC (Gigabit PON Transmission Convergence, Gigabit Passive Optical Network for Transmission Convergence) downlink message is shown in Figure 3a, including the frame overhead part "PCBd" and the frame payload part. Payload", the frame format of the frame overhead part is shown in Figure 3b. The "PLOAMd" field of the frame overhead part carries the content of the PLOAM message. The specific format of the field is shown in Figure 3c. One of the functions of the "Message" field in the PLOAM message is the allocation of the uplink message for the ONU to be sent to the OLT. The specified delimiter, in this embodiment, may be a type identification code of a non-type. In the PON transmission technology, when the ONU receives the "Upstream_Overhead" message from the OLT, it will obtain the delimiter assigned to its use from the "Message" field according to the protocol, thereby using the delimiter as a future interaction with the OLT. The delimiter to use in the message. The frame format of the GTC uplink message uploaded by the ONU is as shown in Figure 4a, including the "PLOu", "PLOAMu", "PLSu", "DBRu" and frame payload "payload" parts. The "PLOu" field is shown in Figure 4b. As shown, the delimiter field is included with "Delimiter". In this embodiment, the ONU will set the type identification code set in the downlink message for assigning the delimiter field as a delimiter to be uploaded in the "Delimiter" field of the uplink message returned to the OLT.

The technical solution is particularly suitable for the case where the ONU bursts the uplink message to the OLT, and the ONU will use the OLT to allocate the delimiter used by it to upload the message to the OLT. The technical solution utilizes the existing delimiter allocation process. The existing delimiter allocation is determined by the OLT and the ONU to determine a delimiter value, and is used in subsequent uplink messages. The technical solution of this embodiment is different data. The ONU of the transport type specifies a different delimiter value, which on the one hand still has the function of the original delimiter and on the other hand becomes the type identifier of the ONU. In the subsequent message interaction with the ONU, the delimiter is used in each uplink message, so the OLT can identify the data transmission type of the ONU according to the delimiter in each uplink message to perform corresponding processing. The implementation of this embodiment may send the type identification code to the ONU in a field specified in other messages broadcasted by the OLT to the ONU, or generate a broadcast message dedicated to performing type detection, and instruct the ONU to follow the preset protocol from the specified protocol. The field obtains the type identification code and sets it to the setting field that itself uploads to the OLT message. For identification by the OLT. As long as the resolution modes adopted by each type of ONU are different, it is possible to correctly analyze and identify the transmission type data corresponding to the corresponding type identification code.

The OLT initiates the identification of the ONU data transmission type by using the technical solution of the embodiment, so that the data transmission type of the ONU can be processed correspondingly, for example, according to the data transmission type of the ONU. To process the upload message of the ONU. The technical solution of this embodiment is not limited to the data transmission type identification of the G-ONU and the NG-ONU, and can be further extended to implement correct identification of multiple network element device types based on different protocols and frame formats, and The changes in the optical network element equipment are extremely small, especially the operation flow of the ONU is hardly changed. Therefore, the technical solution can effectively realize the compatible coexistence of different types of optical network devices, and the program is simple, low in cost, and easy to implement.

The first optical network transmission processing method embodiment 2

FIG. 5 is a flowchart of a second embodiment of a first optical network transmission processing method according to the present invention. The embodiment may be based on the first embodiment, and further improve the transmission processing method that the OLT continues to perform data transmission with the ONU after correctly identifying each ONU data transmission type. Specifically, the following steps may be performed:

Step 151: The OLT performs data transmission type identification of each ONU according to the type identification code.

Step 152: The OLT records the data transmission type of each identified ONU in an local ONU registry corresponding to each ONU, and specifically records the identified data transmission type corresponding to the serial number "SN" of each ONU, such as "GPON". "NGPON"; in the ONU registry, at least two fields are included, one for storing the ONU serial number "SN" and the other for storing the corresponding attribute, that is, the type describing the ONU is G - ONU or NG-ONUo The ONU registry may also include, but is not limited to, an ONU identifier 'ONU-ID', a package identifier "GEM port-ID", an authorized time slice identifier "Alloc-ID", etc. The ONU registry may use the above. In the step of the first embodiment, the current type of the ONU or the NG-ONU is obtained by the identification of the uplink type identification message during the registration process, and then automatically configured, or manually configured.

Step 153: After the OLT sends the broadcast message, it needs to unicast to the designated ONU. When the downlink message is sent again, the OLT queries the local ONU registry for the type of the ONU, and encapsulates the downlink message according to the type obtained by the query and sends the corresponding message to the corresponding

On the ONU, when the OLT is connected to the ONUs based on different transmission technologies, multiple TC (Transmission Convergence) layer transmission channels are set for the ONUs of different data transmission types to ensure that the downstream flows of different types of ONUs are correctly transmitted. Relative to the foregoing identification query data transmission type, in this step, the data transmission type can be identified by querying the registration table again.

The ONU data transmission type recorded in the ONU registry is not limited to the above-mentioned use of the embodiment. When the OLT sends a downlink message to the designated ONU, the OLT may generate a corresponding PLOAM message for the downlink message according to the type obtained by the query, or send the corresponding PLOAM message. The downlink message is allocated a corresponding bandwidth, that is, an authorized time slice in which the "US BWmap" field in the frame overhead portion is allocated to each ONU for uploading the bearer data in the set time period in the form of "Alloc - ID", or The OLT may also determine a frame multiplexing format and the like according to the data transmission type obtained by the query for the downlink message to be sent. For the OLT to receive the data transmission type uploaded by the ONU, the OLT can parse the acquisition delimiter from each uplink message to identify the ONU data transmission type.

In this embodiment, the data transmission type of each ONU is recorded by establishing an ONU registry. When sending a downlink message for different data transmission type ONUs, the ONU registry can be queried to process according to the corresponding data transmission protocol. The technical solution of this embodiment implements the compatibility of the OLT downlink message transmission, and can adapt to the coexistence of different data transmission types ONU.

First embodiment of optical network transmission processing method

FIG. 6 is a flowchart of a third embodiment of an optical network transmission processing method according to the present invention. The transmission processing method is specifically applicable to coexistence of G_ONU and NG-ONU, and performs message transmission with the OLT based on the same protocol. The transmission processing method performed by the service provider side OLT specifically includes:

Step 210: When the OLT receives the serial number response message uploaded by the ONU, the OLT receives the "SN response" message, and parses the reserved field from the "SN response" message. Take the type identification code set by the ONU itself;

Step 220: The OLT performs type identification according to the type identification code to perform data transmission, and may specifically perform operations such as message transmission or management of the message. After performing category identification in this step, the foregoing steps 151-153 may also be performed, and the OLT stores and Maintain the registry of the ONU.

In this embodiment, type identification is initiated by the ONU. During the registration process of the ONU to the OLT, the OLT sends a sequence number acquisition request "SN request" to obtain the serial number of the ONU before the ONU-ID is assigned to the ONU. The ONU can pass the PLOAM message named "Serial_Number_ONU". As the serial number response message to transmit the sequence number, the format of the "Serial_Number_ONU" message is as shown in Fig. 7a, in which the type identification code can be set using the reserved bit field in the last data field as shown in Fig. 7b.

The optical network transmission processing method is not limited to setting the type identification code in the reserved field in the sequence number response message. The general GTC uplink message format can be seen in FIG. 4a, including "PLOu", "PLOAMu", "PLSu", "DBRu" and the frame payload part, where the "PLOu" field is shown in Figure 4b, including not only the delimiter field of "Delimiter", but also a 1-bit "Ind" field, which can be used as a reserved field to set the type identifier. code. In this embodiment, the reserved field can also be used to set the type identification code to implement the ONU reporting type to the OLT.

In this embodiment, although the frame formats specified by the protocol according to the G-ONU and the NG-ONU are the same, the data content of the respective G-ONU and the NG-ONU are still different depending on the transmission technology, and at the same time, in order to better manage the G-ONU and NG - ONU also urgently needs the OLT to identify the type of ONU data transmission. After identifying the data transmission type of each ONU, the OLT can locally establish the above ONU registry to record each ONU type for subsequent processing or management.

When the protocol used by the G-ONU and the NG-ONU is the same, the ONU reporting class can be reported through the OMCI channel after the ONU is registered on the OLT. When the OLT receives the type identification message through the OMCI channel, the type identification is performed. Solution in the message The acquisition type identification code is identified for identification. After the OLT completes the local registration of the ONU, the OLT receives the capability report message through the OMCI channel as the type identification message. After receiving the capability report message, the capability reports the reserved field in the message. Parse the type identifier that gets the ONU settings. The capability report message may be a message that the ONU reports its uplink rate, protocol support status, or the like, or a message dedicated to the report type identifier.

In this embodiment, the PLOAM message of the existing report sequence number or the reserved field in the OMCI channel report message is used to implement the ONU reporting type to the OLT. Under the premise of coexistence of different types of ONUs, the improvement of existing network element equipment is small, the transformation cost is low, and it is easy to popularize and implement.

Data transfer between OLT 100 and ONU 200.

The second optical network transmission processing apparatus of this embodiment can perform the second transmission processing method. FIG. 10 is a flowchart of a specific embodiment of a second optical network transmission processing method. The optical network transmission processing method in this embodiment is specifically a user side network element device.

The ONU performs the G-ONU and NG-ONU based on different protocols, and can be used in conjunction with the first or second technical solution of the first optical network transmission processing method of the present invention. The steps of the optical network transmission processing method are specifically:

Step 310: When the ONU receives the type detection message sent by the OLT, it parses. If the type detection message can be parsed, step 320 is performed, otherwise the type detection message is discarded.

Step 320: When the ONU parses the type identification code, sets the type identification code in the locally generated type identification message, and sends the type identification message to the OLT to instruct the OLT to perform the type identification after performing the OLT and the ONU. Message interaction.

In this embodiment, the type of probe message may be a message dedicated to type detection, or may be determined by using a delimiter as described above, that is, a PLOAM message named "Upstream_Overhead", and may be specifically in "Upstream_Overhead". The message sets the type identifier in the field that specifies the delimiter for the ONU. Only the corresponding type of ONU can correctly parse the message following the corresponding protocol. The ONU receives the delimiter determination message before registration. According to the protocol, the data is parsed from the set field of the delimiter determination message and then sent to The delimiter to be set in the OLT upstream message. With this rule, the ONU can identify the type identifier sent by the OLT as a delimiter in the type identification message and report it to the OLT for identification. The type identification message can be any uplink message that the ONU reports to the OLT.

The technical solution of the embodiment realizes the coexistence of the G-ONU and the NG-ONU, and the improvement on the network element device is small, the transformation cost is low, the scheme is simple, and the implementation is easy to implement.

Another specific embodiment of the second transmission processing method is specifically a user side network element device.

The case that the ONU performs, which is applicable to the G-ONU and the NG-ONU based on the same protocol, can be used in conjunction with the technical solution of the third embodiment of the first transmission processing method of the present invention. The The steps of the transmission processing method are specifically as follows:

The ONU sets the type identification code in the type identification message and sends it to the OLT to instruct the OLT to perform the message interaction between the ONU and the OLT after performing type identification.

In this embodiment, the ONU performs type reporting on the OLT. The ONU may set the type identification code in the reserved field of the PLOAM message named "Serial_Number_ONU" to indicate the type of the OLT in the sequence number response message. Data transmission after identification. Alternatively, the ONU may, after completing the registration at the OLT, in the dedicated type identification message, or the capability report message as a type identification message, and set a type identification code therein, and send it to the OLT through the OMCI channel.

In this embodiment, although the frame formats specified by the protocol according to the G-ONU and the NG-ONU are the same, the data content of the respective G-ONU and the NG-ONU are still different depending on the transmission technology, and at the same time, in order to better manage the G-ONU and NG - ONU also urgently needs the OLT to identify the type of ONU data transmission. After identifying the data transmission type of each ONU, the OLT can locally establish the above ONU registry to record each ONU type for subsequent processing or management. The technical solution of the embodiment ensures that the OLT recognizes the data transmission type of the ONU by means of the ONU reporting the data transmission type, thereby providing an appropriate data transmission service, thereby achieving compatibility between the G-ONU and the NG-ONU, and the implementation is achieved. The program is simple, the transformation cost is low, and it is easy to promote and apply.

In the first embodiment of the second optical network transmission processing apparatus of the present invention, the type identification message uploaded to the OLT 100 may be a serial number response message, or may be a capability report message reported by the OMCI channel. The type identification code can be set in the reserved field for the OLT 100 to resolve and recognize. The above method can be applied to the case where different types of ONUs 200 are transmitted based on the same protocol.

The optical network transmission processing apparatus of this embodiment may further include a detection module 230. As shown in FIG. 11, the detection module 230 is connected to the type identification module 210, and is configured to receive each of the corresponding data transmission protocols delivered by the OLT 100. The type detection message is parsed to obtain a type identification code, and the type identification code is provided to the type identification module 210 for identification of the type information, and the identified type identification message and/or normal service is sent by the sending module 220. The data is fed back to the OLT 100. This type of probe message can As the delimiter determines the message, the detecting module 230 can parse the delimiter data allocated to the ONU 200 uplink message from the setting field of the delimiter determining message, and set it to delimit the uplink message uploaded to the OLT 100. In the character field, the type identification code is actually parsed and set back to the OLT 100 in the uplink message. This method can be applied to the case where different data transmission types ONU 200 are transmitted based on different data transmission protocols.

In this embodiment, the ONUs of different data transmission types can report their own data transmission types to the OLT for identification, and are applicable to the case where the data transmission protocols are the same or different, and the solution enables the OLT to be a different data transmission type ONU. Provide appropriate data transfer services to enable the network to be compatible with ONUs with different data transfer types. The technical solution is simple, low cost and easy to promote.

On the other hand, the optical network transmission processing method of the present invention is not limited to the compatibility of different types of network element devices in the fiber access network. In networks based on other transmission technologies, such as wireless transmission, there are also problems of coexistence of new and old network element devices. In particular, the user side network element device cannot be completely replaced. The service provider side network element device has the capability of providing services for multiple types of user side network element devices, and the service provider side network element device is required to identify the user side. The data transmission type of the network element device. The optical network transmission processing method and apparatus of the present invention can be extended to be applied to networks based on other transmission technologies to implement compatible coexistence of different types of network element devices.
