Abstract

This Recommendation specifies requirements for adding Dynamic Bandwidth Assignment (DBA) functionality to the Broadband Optical Access Systems defined in ITU-T Rec. G.983.1. The use of DBA functionality enables dynamic sharing of upstream bandwidth. This dynamic sharing uses upstream bandwidth more efficiently and enables additional services flexibility. This Recommendation captures specifications for DBA operation and for DBA-related communication between the OLT and the ONUs/ONTs.
