摘要:
A method and apparatus are provided for generating Generic Mapping Procedure (GMP) stuff/data decisions, which avoids brute force modulo arithmetic and is efficient for hitless adjustment of ODUFIex (G.7044) in an Optical Transport Network (OTN). Addition operations are used, rather than multiplication operations, to facilitate faster and less computationally expensive calculation of data/stuff decisions, based on calculated residue values. Residue values are logically arranged in rows to facilitate residue calculation, such as based on relationships with previously calculated residue values. This method is also applicable for mapping and de-mapping Constant Bit Rate (CBR) clients into and from an ODUk carrier.
摘要:
A frame delineation method for a generic framing procedure (GFP) that includes: searching a serial data stream comprising GFP frames, octet by octet, to identify an eight octet sequence; and delineating GFP frames from the serial data stream in response to determining that a first group of four octets of the identified eight octet sequence comprises a valid Core Header, and in response to determining that a second group of four octets of the identified eight octet sequence comprises one of a valid Core Header and a valid descrambled Type Header.
摘要:
A method of communicating count value information in an Optical Transport Network (OTN) signal frame. The method comprises determining a count value indicating a number of payload bytes to be sent in a next OTN signal frame; determining that a change in the count value (Δ) with respect to a current count value is within a predetermined range; selecting an inversion pattern indicating the change in the count value; determining a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) code associated with the inversion pattern; and, inserting the inversion pattern and the CRC code in a Generic Mapping Procedure (GMP) overhead of the OTN signal frame.
