Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for managing a passive optical network, said passive optical network comprising at least one few-mode fiber ( 610 ) to centralize connections relative to several optical network units to a central office ( 500 ), wherein said central office ( 500 ) is provided with:—optical line terminations ( 521 - 524 ) to at least emit multiple bandwidths (λ 1 , λ 2 ), and—at least one mode converter ( 540 ) acting as a power splitter to multiplex said multiple bandwidths to different power modes, said different power modes being then provided to said at least one few-mode fiber ( 610 ).

Claim (Index 12):
A method for managing a passive optical network, said passive optical network comprising at least one few-mode fiber to centralize connections relative to several optical network units to a central office, wherein said central office is provided with:\n optical line terminations to at least emit multiple bandwidths, and at least one mode converter acting as a power splitter to multiplex said multiple bandwidths to different power modes, said different power modes being then provided to said at least one few-mode fiber, and wherein said central office comprises further a channel engineering block being programmed for performing the method, the method comprising: interpreting coupling losses received at least from said mode converter, optimizing transmission parameters based on said coupling losses, and controlling said optical line terminations so as to emit optical signals with respect to said optimized transmission parameters.
