| 20090175622 | METHOD FOR ALLOCATING UPSTREAM TRANSMISSION BANDWIDTH IN WDM-EPON - Disclosed is a method fox allocating upstream transmission bandwidth so as to prevent Inter-Scheduling Cycle Gaps (ISCGs) from occurring in an N number of Optical Network Units (ONUs) by using an m number of wavelength channels for upstream transmission in a Wavelength-Division Multiplexing (WDM)-Ethernet Passive Optical Network (EPON). The method includes: grouping the ONUs to be allocated each of the m number of wavelength channels; and performing a Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA) algorithm in order for the grouped ONUs to efficiently use allocated wavelengths and time slots, thereby allocating each wavelength channel. Accordingly, by using a scheme of managing ONUs by each group, it is possible to more efficiently allocate bandwidth than the online scheduling scheme. As compared with the offline scheduling scheme, ISCGs caused by bandwidth allocation do not occur. | 07-09-2009 |

Therefore, a transmission idle period in a traffic channel is not only minimized, but an availability ratio of traffic channels can also be maximized. | 07-30-2009 |
