Abstract:
A communication method, apparatus, and system for a passive optical network (PON). The PON includes an optical line terminal (OLT) and a first optical network unit (ONU), where the method includes communicating, by the OLT, with the first ONU using one downlink wavelength (λdx), where the λdx is any one of N downlink wavelengths λd1 to λdN, and communicating, by the OLT, with the first ONU using one uplink wavelength (λu0), where the λu0 is different from any one of M uplink wavelengths λu1 to λuM. The N downlink wavelengths λd1 to λdN and the M uplink wavelengths λu1 to λuM are wavelength values configured for a second ONU, N and M are both integers greater than or equal to 2, and x is any value from 1 to M. Therefore, complexity and costs of the PON system are reduced.

Claim (Index 9):
The method according to  claim 6 , further comprising:\n receiving, by the first ONU, a timeslot grant message from the OLT using the \u03bbdx, wherein the timeslot grant message comprises a granted timeslot of the \u03bbu0; and sending, by the first ONU, an uplink signal to the OLT using the granted timeslot of the \u03bbu0.
