  • Patent number: 11595743
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods, optical line terminals (OLTs), optical network units (ONUs), apparatuses and computer storage media for transmitting a time synchronization message. In some example embodiments, the OLT is configured to: determine a threshold rate to be N messages per second for transmission of a time synchronization message to an ONU, wherein N being greater than or equal to 0.1; and transmit, to the ONU, a time synchronization message at the threshold rate or a rate above the threshold rate, to enable the ONU to perform time synchronization with the OLT. In some other example embodiments, the OLT is configured to: select a plurality of ONUs for transmitting time synchronization information; and transmit, to the ONUs, a broadcast or multicast message the time synchronization information, to enable the plurality of ONUs to perform time synchronization with the OLT.
