Abstract
Example embodiments describe an optical line terminal, OLT, configured to communicate in a passive optical network with one or more optical network units, ONUs. Optical burst signals transmitted by the one or more ONUs have respective symbol rates. The optical line terminal includes a burst-mode receiver configured to decode an optical burst signal from an ONU to a decoded output signal by one or more digital signal processing circuitries that process a signal at respective configurable processing rates. The optical line terminal is configured to perform obtaining the symbol rate of a next optical burst signal; and adjusting, during an interval between reception of valuable symbols within a previous optical burst signal and reception of valuable symbols within the next optical burst signal, the configurable processing rate of one or more digital signal processing circuitries based on the symbol rate of the next optical burst signal.
