The telecommunications transmission security arrangement comprises first and second transmission paths, each having first and second serially connected circuit means. The first circuit means of said first path is arranged to be connectable to the second circuit means of said second path. The first circuit means of the second path is arranged to be connectable to the second circuit means of the first path, and the second circuit means of each path are arranged to monitor alarm conditions of the transmission paths and set up a transmission path by way of the first circuit means of the first path and the second circuit means of the second path when the first path is determined not suitable for transmission. A transmission path is set up by way of the first circuit means of the second path and the second circuit means of the first path when the second path is determined not suitable for transmission.

The invention concerns a method of pointer processing a digital TDM data stream at a node of a synchronous SDH transmission network so as to justify the data stream on transmission, the data stream having a specified line frequency and being composed of frames, each frame containing a reference word, and the node of the transmission network having a node frequency, the method comprising storing the incoming data stream in a buffer store at the node, using the line reference of the incoming data stream to extract a data pointer from the data stream for each frame, which data pointer indicates the location of the reference word of that frame in the buffer store, and characterised in that a timing pointer is extracted from the incoming data stream utilising the line reference and a line clock the frequency of which is a multiple of the line reference; the timing pointer so extracted is converted into a reference value by utilising the node reference and a node clock; the reference value is utilised to generate a node timing pointer; the node timing pointer is compared with a read address and data pointer; and read-out from the buffer store is justified in accordance with the results of the comparison.

In a forty megabit per second TDM signalling system in which twenty 2 megabit per second signalling streams are combined, one of the twenty primary signalling streams is inverted and substituted for one of the other signalling streams. By using adjacent channels the forty megabit signal stream has a guaranteed change of data at least once every twenty bits. The system facilitates clock recovery and synchronisation in apparatus employing bi-phase mark encoded data.

A Network has a non-ring architecture and is based on a transmission medium having a broadband electromagnetic spectrum and has a plurality of transmitters, each transmitter being locked to a specific wavelength and transmitting a regular frame sequence of Data Bursts, each Data Burst containing a Preamble and Tributary Identification Number. There is also a plurality of receivers each receiver being tuneable to any of the transmitters and each receiver being tuned in a corresponding definable regular frame sequence to some or all of the transmitters in order to receive the Data Bursts intended for that receiver. The Network typically uses either optical transmission via a Passive Optical Network (PON), or a radio transmission network.

In a telecommunications system in which narrowband or guiding services already exist, different service rates, either fixed or variable may be required. A further service switch is connected in parallel with the existing narrowband or guiding switch, the further service switch being similarly controlled in response to the guiding signalling.

A reconfigurable switch memory which is applicable to time switches and space switches enables two very different time switching functions to be efficiently implemented by one type of switching unit. A reconfigurable switching device is provided which, for instance, can work in either one bit or five bit mode, the granularity of the switch being varied.

The synchronisation arrangement includes a waveform and synchronisation information generator to supply synchronisation information for transmission with a data stream over digital switching networks. The synchronisation information includes two different patterns, phased displaced with respect to each other. Interfaces connect peripheral devices to the networks and are adapted to detect and validate the synchronisation information. The checks made are in respect of detecting both patterns, the amount of phase displacement, and the correct sequence. If the synchronisation information is invalid, the detecting interface selects a data stream from another network exclusively for use by the corresponding peripheral device.
摘要:
A telecommunications transmission system carries multiple tributary data streams with SDH compatible multiplexing and demultiplexing arrangements that include a tributary justification algorithm utilising both byte and bit justification means as well as a double-ended payload protocol. The byte justification means employs an offset clock with a nominal constant frequency offset from the transmission system clock so that the offset clock can be used to force a regular rate of byte justifications of constant sign. The bit justification means employs the difference between the tributary clock and the offset clock to determine the bit justifications necessary to multiplex the tributary data stream and the bitjustifications are normally of complementary sign to the forced regular byte justifications except where the frequency of the offset clock lies between the frequency of the transmission clock.
摘要:
A telecommunication network and switching system where digital circuits are supplied to customer terminals for dial-up services and where automatic testing of the access connections to the customer premises is performed whilst calls are not in progress. A loop test unit is provided at the customer's premises near to the customer digital line terminals able to detect a test sequence sent from an exchange when a call is not in progress, the test sequence being recognised by the loop test unit and a test sequence being returned to the exchange to enable the error performance of the link in both directions to be tested.
