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 19):
The ONU according to  claim 16 , wherein the optical receiver is further configured to receive a timeslot grant message from the OLT using the \u03bbdx, wherein the timeslot grant message comprises a granted timeslot of the one uplink wavelength \u03bbu0, and wherein the optical transmitter is further configured to send an uplink signal to the OLT using the granted timeslot of the \u03bbu0.
