Patent number: 10602407Abstract: A CU (Central Unit) executes scheduling for allocating radio resources of RRUs (Remote Radio Units) to radio transmission of downlink data while broadcasting, to DMs (Data Managers) via MFH, downlink data from MBH. Each DM selects, based on an allocation result obtained by scheduling, the downlink data of an RRU (Remote Radio Unit) corresponding to the self DM from the accumulated downlink data from the CU, and transfers the selected downlink data to the corresponding RRU while discarding the downlink data of other RRUs. Based on the allocation result, each RRU performs radio transmission of the downlink data from the DM to a corresponding UE (User Equipment) using the designated radio resource. This makes it possible to efficiently transfer the downlink data from the CU to each RRU via the MFH constructed by a TDM system represented by TDM-PON.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2016Date of Patent: March 24, 2020Assignee: NIPPON TELEGRAPH AND TELEPHONE CORPORATIONInventors: Hiroyuki Uzawa, Yuki Arikawa, Kenji Kawai, Satoshi Shigematsu

Patent number: 10397133Abstract: An upstream allocation circuit (14) and a downstream allocation circuit (15) are provided in an OLT (1). For example, a superimposed frame obtained by bundling upstream frames (upstream control frames+upstream data frames) from all ONUS is input to the upstream allocation circuit (14) via a frame reproduction circuit (12-1). The superimposed frame may be generated at the stage of optical signals or generated after converting optical signals into electrical signals. The upstream allocation circuit (14) allocates each of the upstream control frames bundled into the superimposed frame to a predetermined PON control circuit (13) based on information (PON port number or LLID) added to the frames. The downstream allocation circuit (15) allocates, to a preset frame reproduction circuit (12), each downstream control frames output from the PON control circuits (13).Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2016Date of Patent: August 27, 2019Assignee: NIPPON TELEGRAPH AND TELEPHONE CORPORATIONInventors: Saki Hatta, Tomoaki Kawamura, Kenji Kawai, Nobuyuki Tanaka, Satoshi Shigematsu, Namiko Ikeda, Shoko Ohteru, Junichi Kato

Patent number: 10193630Abstract: A selection and distribution circuit (13) is provided between N optical transceivers (11) and one PON control circuit (12). The selection and distribution circuit (13) selects the optical transceiver (11) corresponding to an upstream frame that time-divisionally arrives, thereby transferring the upstream frame opto-electrically converted by the transceiver (11) to the PON control circuit (12) and distributing a downstream frame from the PON control circuit (12) to each optical transceiver (11).

Patent number: 9954617Abstract: An OLT (1) is formed by N optical transceivers (11), one PON control circuit (12), and one selection and distribution circuit (13). An optical transceiver selection control signal (SC) is transferred from the PON control circuit (12) to the selection and distribution circuit (13).
