Passive optical telecommunication system for narrow band and broadband integrated services digital networks

摘要

In a passive optical telecommunication system in which the signal transmission from a switching center downstream to remote units proceeds in a first stream on a time-division multiplex basis and in which the signal transmission from the remote units upstream to the central switching center proceeds in accordance with a TDMA method in accordance wherewith a remote unit transmits each burst in a synchronized fashion with the assistance of a delay device that is individually set with respect to each remote unit proceeding from the switching center, the remote unit already transmits the bursts before the transmission time required for a desired reception phase relation of the burst in the central switching center only after a rough delay time of a whole system clock period (or system clock periods), and the switching center centrally undertakes a respective individually-dimensioned fine delay of the bursts incoming thereat from each of the remote units into the desired reception phase relation.
