The present principles are directed to a transponder aggregator-based optical loopback in a multi-degree colorless, directionless, contention-less, reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer. The multiplexer includes a reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer section for performing connect operations for wavelength division multiplexing signals among all degrees. The section has a plurality of subsections. Each of the subsections corresponds to a respective one of the degrees and has an optical separator at an input side and an optical combiner at an output side. The multiplexer further includes a transponder aggregator section having a split-and-select switch-based transponder aggregator. The multiplexer also includes an optical line loopback having a connection path between the optical separator at the input side and the optical combiner at the output side of at least one of the subsections.

Abstract:
A method sets certain downstream traffic scheduling rules at an optical line terminal OLT and certain sleep control rules at optical network units ONUs. Both downstream traffic scheduling rules and sleep control rules are common information owned by both the OLT and ONUs. The method sets the traffic scheduling rules that each ONU is allocated with some time slots every cycle if the ONU has downstream traffic. Rather than using a control message to notify ONUs with their queue status, the method lets ONUs infer whether its downstream queue is empty or not based on downstream traffic scheduling and lets the OLT infer the status of an ONU based on sleep control rules.

Methods and systems for anomaly detection include measuring time-series data about a system using an optical sensing system. The time-series data is adapted to natural language data. One or more anomaly detection models are selected based on the natural language data and a task. An anomaly is detected in the system using the selected one or more anomaly detection models. A corrective action is performed responsive to the anomaly.
