Fault Localization of PON Yeung Chue Hei (1008620051)Lam Yi Kwan (1008627154)
Network Structure • FTTX (fiber to the X) • Passive (PON) • Multiplexing (→P2MP) • TDM • WDM
Goals • Maintain service quality • 1/3 of service disruptions are due to fiber cable • Fault can be a disaster • Assisting reparation • Reduce lost • Efficiency • Not affecting the other service
Challenges High resolution VS high DR capabilities Measurement time Point-to-multipoint problem
Solutions for TDM-PONs • P2P • Active By-pass • Passive By-pass • Integrated OTDR functionality • P2MP • Tunable OTDR and wavelength selective reflectors • Conventional OTDR and controlled reference reflections • Brillouin OTDR
Solutions for WDM-PONs Tunable OTDR/multi-wavelength source and optical reflector Re-using existing light sources Commercial multi-wavelength OTDR
Other solutions Optical Code-division Multiplexing Optical Frequency Domain Reflectometry
Measuring the Individual Attenuation Distribution of Passive Branched Optical Networks Kuniaki Tanaka, Mitsuhiro Tateda, Senior Member, IEEE, and Yasuyuki Inoue, Member, IEEE IEEE PHOTONICS TECHNOLOGY LETTERS, VOL 8, NO 7, JULY 1996
Reference Reflector • Conventional OTDR • Specially designed branched networks • Transmission line lengths differ with each other • Cannot test branched fiber losses individually • Go to the subscriber terminals after branching and measure the transmission loss directly
Fiber Fault Identification for Branched Access Networks Using a Wavelength-Sweeping Monitoring Source Chun-Kit Chan, Frank Tong,Lian-Kuan Chen, Keang-Po Ho, Dennis Lam
Introduction Conventional OTDR cannot differentiate Rayleigh backscattered light from different branches Multiwavelength OTDR is expensive
To avoid pulse collision (2nL/c) < 1/(Nf) Eg. N=8, f=1kHz, n=1.5, max L=12.5km
Experiment 1 x 4 branched optical network Data channels: 1548nm, 1551nm 1Gb/s 210-1 PRBS NRZ L1=8.8km, L2=L3=6.6km, L4 is unmonitored FBG: 1556.4nm, 1558nm, 1559.7nm 3dB passband: 0.4nm, 0.8nm, 0.9nm Sawtoothed signal: 2kHz
Summary Makes use of FBGs No additional monitoring source Both time and frequency domain With OTDR techniques, can locate exact fiber cut position
