SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PERFORMING OPTICAL LINE TERMINAL (OLT) FAILOVER SWITCHES IN OPTICAL NETWORKS

A system for performing failover switches in an optical network, such as a time and wavelength division passive optical networks (TWDM PON) like NG-PON2, includes a backup optical line terminal (OLT) for backing up communications of a primary OLT. The backup OLT is configured to allocate small upstr...

description A system for performing failover switches in an optical network, such as a time and wavelength division passive optical networks (TWDM PON) like NG-PON2, includes a backup optical line terminal (OLT) for backing up communications of a primary OLT. The backup OLT is configured to allocate small upstream time slots, referred to herein as "de minimis" time slots, to at least one optical network terminal (ONT) communicating with the primary OLT during normal operation. When a failure occurs that prevents communication between the ONT and the primary OLT, the ONT autonomously tunes to the upstream and downstream wavelength pairs of the backup OLT and begins to transmit data to the backup OLT in the de minimis time slot allocated to it. The presence of data in the de minimis time slot indicates the occurrence of a failover switch to the backup OLT, and the backup OLT then begins to allocate time slots to this ONT, which is normally serviced by the primary OLT according to its normal TDM algorithm.
