What's the key technologies of GPON

FEC

Context

Forward error correction (FEC) is mainly used for improving transmission quality of a line.
No ideal digital channel is available in practice. As a result, bit errors and jitter occur when digital signals are being transmitted over any transmission medium, deteriorating transmission quality on lines.
To resolve the problem, error correction mechanism is introduced.
  • The mechanism can check and correct errors after data is transmitted to the peer end. such as FEC.
  • The mechanism can check errors after data is transmitted to the peer end but not correct errors.

Highlight and Application

  • Does not require retransmission and provides a high real-time performance
  • Requires an additional bandwidth (Users must balance the transmission quality and bandwidth.)
  • Checks and corrects errors after data is transmitted to the peer end, but does not apply to services for which retransmission is enabled
  • Applies to data transmission on the network that has a poor quality
  • Applies to services that have a low requirement on delay (The delay is large if retransmission is configured for services.)

Configuration Guide

The FEC function of 10G GPON as follows:
  • Supported only in the downstream direction.
  • FEC is enabled by default.
  • The FEC function cannot be configured manually.
