Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for managing upstream burst overhead parameters includes: an Optical Line Terminal (OLT) or an Optical Network Unit (ONU) detects transmission quality of a downlink between the OLT and the ONU; the OLT or the ONU determines the upstream burst overhead parameters suitable for the ONU according to the transmission quality; and the ONU starts to use the upstream burst overhead parameters suitable for the ONU after the switching time determined by the ONU itself or indicated by the OLT. The present invention also provides an ONU and an OLT for managing the upstream burst overhead parameters. The present invention can improve the bandwidth utilization rate and decrease the complexity of indicating the upstream burst overhead parameters in PON system, so that the ONU and the OLT are enabled to flexibly and simply select the upstream burst overhead parameters.
