    Abstract: A synchronization scheme for a digital communications system wherein customer data is connected to a synchronous communications network utilizes auxiliary symbols to provide frame synchronization. Each such auxiliary symbol lies outside of a conventional symbol constellation and is only used to represent framing information. Variations of the customer data rate relative to an expected rate are compensated for by the use of stuff and delete bits in each frame. These bits can be either customer data bits or ancillary bits depending on the direction of this variation. Advantageously, the auxiliary symbols also provide a determination of whether the stuff and delete bits in any frame are customer data or ancillary bits.

    Abstract: A circuit arrangement for imaging a useful digital signal from a frame of a first digital signal having a first bit rate into a frame of a second digital signal having a second bit rate, where the useful digital signal had been written into a first elastic memory and then read out of the first elastic memory in the frame of the first digital signal using a pulse stuffing technique, and with the frame of the first digital signal containing data representing the average fill level of the first elastic memory. The arrangement includes a second elastic memory, a frame detector for detecting the frame of the first signal and controlling activation of write-in of the useful digital signal from the frame of the first digital signal to the second elastic memory, and a frame generator which generates the frame of the second digital signal and controls activation of stuffing and of read-out of the useful digital signal from the second elastic memory into the frame of the second digital signal. An integrator determines the average fill level of the second elastic memory and a subtracter determines the difference between the average fill levels of the first and second elastic memories. This digital difference is fed to a digital control circuit, which includes a digital filter and a pulse density modulator that makes a stuffing decision as a function of the output of the digital filter. Each stuffing decision is input to the frame generator.

    Abstract: In a stuff-synchronized time division multiplex (TDM) transmission system, an incoming TDM signal is delayed so that a plurality of TDM frame sequences are successively delayed by one time slot and appear at the inputs of a data selector. A control circuit is provided for deriving a channel-by-channel selection signal from stuff specification bits contained in the incoming TDM signal. The data selector is responsive to the selection signal to select a channel in one of the TDM frame sequences and delivers the selected channel as a TDM output signal to a time division switch, or cross-connect in which it is decomposed into channels for switching to a desired route.

    Abstract: A digital clock dejitter circuit has a RAM for receiving an incoming gapped signal, a digital, fractional RAM fullness gauge for tracking the average input and output rates to and from the RAM and for generating therefrom a control indication, and a controllable digital frequency generator for receiving a fast clock signal and the control indication, and for providing therefrom a substantially jitter-free clock signal at the same nominal rate as the incoming gapped signal. The RAM fullness gauge has write and read counters which track the movement of data into and out of the RAM, and a subtractor for taking the difference of the counters to obtain the integer value of the RAM depth. The controllable digital frequency generator has an adder, a register, and a fast clock counter (FCC) which provides the fullness gauge with a fractional digital indication of the RAM depth. The adder has a carry output fed to the FCC to control whether the FCC divides by x or x+1, and a remainder output fed to the register and then fed back as an input to the adder. The adder also receives the control indication from the fullness gauge as an input. FCC inputs include the fast clock, and the carry output of the adder. The FCC outputs are a read signal for causing a byte to be read from the RAM at the end of a count cycle, and the fast clock count used for fractional fullness.

    Abstract: The described circuit arrangement for removing stuff bits from a frame-structured signal which is available in n parallel bits, comprises a memory circuit (2) which is supplied with the parallel bits (1b). The memory circuit (2) is followed by a controllable selection circuit (3) having n outputs (3a). A control circuit (9) produces control signals (9b, 9c), which determine which bits stored in the memory circuit are transported to the n outputs (3a) of the selection circuit (3). The memory circuit (2) comprises only n delay elements by which each of the n parallel bits (1b) is delayed for the duration of one bit. So as to provide that n delay elements will be sufficient, the control circuit (9) is to block at predetermined time intervals the acceptance of new bits in one or a plurality of delay elements.

    Abstract: A circuit arrangement for adapting the bit rates of two signals to each other and which comprises an elastic store (6). The useful data of a first frame-structured signal are written into this store (6) by means of a write address counter (7) and read out again by means of a read address counter (8). A phase comparator (16) is used for comparing the counts of these counters (7,8). In order to largely avoid jitter in the signal that has been read, a balancing counter (14) is provided which, on average, is stopped as often as the write address counter (7) is, but runs more smoothly than the write address counter. The means for controlling the operation of the balancing counter (14) comprise comparator circuits (12E, 12F, 12G) by means of which the operation of the frame counter (12) is monitored, an up/down counter (19) as well as various gates (11, 13, 17, 18). The phase comparator (16) compares the count of the balancing counter (14 ) to the count of the read address counter (8) and the output signal of the phase comparator (16) is used for producing the clock for the read address counter (8).

    Abstract: A digital phase locked loop is employed to realize an output clock signal from a reference signal having a frequency which is not an integer multiple of the output clock signal frequency. This is realized by employing a programmable divider for dividing the reference signal which is dynamically controlled by a controllably variable base divisor. The base divisor control is responsive to the reference signal and to a phase error signal. The base divisor is generated to obtain a desired fractional division of the reference signal frequency and in a manner to minimize the amplitude of any resulting "high" frequency jitter in the output clock signal from the loop.

    Abstract: Improved jitter performance is realized in a desynchronizer for obtaining an asynchronous digital signal, e.g., a DS3 signal, from a received synchronous digital signal, e.g., a SONET STS-1 signal. The improved jitter performance results from the use of a unique adaptive bit leaking arrangement in conjunction with a digital phase locked loop and synchronizing elastic store. An estimate of a bit leaking interval is adaptively obtained based on the intervals between a sequence of consecutive pointer adjustments in the received signal, i.e., the STS-1 signal. In one embodiment, the bit leaking interval estimate is obtained by employing a moving average of the intervals between the pointer adjustments. The desired bit leaking is effected by employing an accumulator which is responsive to the received pointer adjustments and a representation of the estimated bit leaking interval, in conjunction with a comparator. The accumulator output count is supplied to the comparator along with the current write address of the elastic store. Leak bits are supplied as an output from the comparator one at a time to the phase locked loop which, in turn, generates a smooth read clock for the elastic store.
