Abstract

See full text

A method of determining a physical layer wavelength of a tunable optical network unit (ONU) in a time wavelength division multiplexing-passive optical network (TWDM-PON) is provided. First, a receiving wavelength of a tunable receiver is tuned to a downstream wavelength of one of a plurality of operable channels in a TWDM-PON system. Then, it is checked whether the tunable receiver maintains a state of loss of signal (LOS) for a predetermined period of time or the state of LOS is cleared. In response to a determination that the state of LOS is cleared, the ONU performs subsequent link establishment procedures in the channel, and in response to a determination that the state of LOS is maintained, the receiving wavelength of the tunable receiver is changed to a downstream wavelength of another channel.
