OPTICAL NETWORK UNIT CAPABLE OF REDUCING OPTICAL BEAT INTERFERENCE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME

摘要

Disclosed are an optical network unit included in an OFDMA-PON system that is capable of reducing OBI (optical beat interference), and a method of controlling the optical network unit. The disclosed optical network unit includes: a signal generator part configured to generate an electrical signal carrying transmission data; an RF tone generator part configured to generate an RF tone; a combiner part configured to combine the electrical signal and the RF tone; and a photoelectric converter part configured to convert the combined signal of the electrical signal and RF tone into an optical signal.
