Abstract
There is a need to provide a multirate burst mode receiver for an OLT to be capable of receiving a high-speed burst signal without the need for a special capability of an ONU in a PON system including a mix of ONUs at different transmission bit rates. A multirate burst mode receiver according to the invention includes a signal input discrimination section and a bit rate discrimination section. The signal input discrimination section detects an average amplitude to discriminate signal input. The bit rate discrimination section detects an envelope curve for a high-frequency component to discriminate a signal bit rate. Based on a discrimination result from the signal input discrimination section and the bit rate discrimination section, the multirate burst mode receiver switches a setting for an optical signal reception section and a serial-parallel converter corresponding to the reception bit rate.
