Disclosed are an apparatus and a method for mapping an SDH signal and other 40-Gbps client signals through a single data path. The mapping apparatus supports both a justification byte mapping scheme and a sigma-delta distribution mapping scheme and implements a single data path. Accordingly, power consumption may be reduced by changing each mapping mode in a hitless manner or minimizing logic capacity according to a mapping mode used in the mapping apparatus.
摘要:
A circuit capable of processing signals of different signal types is provided for identifying the signal type by the signal type setting from an administrator or by the implementation of the optical module, thereby selecting a signal processor to be used. An OTN frame standardized by ITU is used in a fixed manner independent of the signal type to be accommodated, while a corresponding SDH/SONET frame standardized by ITU is used for signal accommodation.

An optical transmission apparatus according to the present invention connects a terminal apparatus side in which a transmission line is formed by, for example, SONET/SDH, and a WDM side in which a transmission line is formed by, for example, OTU3. The optical transmission apparatus according to the present invention includes a selector that, when an input signal is interrupted or switched, controls a PLL unit so as to switch and obtain a clock signal of a predetermined frequency oscillated by an OSC, corresponding to a frequency of a clock signal of the input signal before being divided to input into the PLL unit, as a clock signal to generate a PLL reference frequency.

A method of demultiplexing client data from a constant bit rate (CBR) optical client serial link into lower bit-rate CBR signals for transmitting over a plurality of wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) optical channels. The method comprises mapping blocks of bytes from a client frame received from the optical client serial link into respective CBR transport frames for transmitting over the respective WDM optical channels and such that the number of bytes in the client frame is the same as the number of bytes in the plurality of respective CBR transport frames. Modifying a number of non-payload bytes from the client frame to carry CBR transport frame control data in each said CBR transport frame.

Provided are a method and apparatus for increasing transmission capacity for large-capacity high-speed signal transmission in an optical transport network (OTN). A method and apparatus for increasing transmission capacity are needed, which can transmit a large-capacity high-speed signal in order to transmit a signal through a united OTN by adapting signals from various tributary signal networks which have been independently operated for voice, image, or data transmission. Although various types of techniques such as Time Division Multiplexing (TDM), Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM), and an optical Printed Circuit Board (PCB) method have been performed, the techniques have various limitations. Therefore, a method and apparatus is provided for embodying a large-capacity optical transmission network, which overcome the limitations by using a Virtual Concatenation (VC) method.
