Synchronous Digital Hierarchy

Eleventh Meeting

History of Multiplexing Synchronous digital

hierarchy (SDH) is a world-wide standard for digital communication network.

Two other systems were before it: the plesiochronous digital

hierarchy (PDH) and frequency division

multiplexing (FDM). Frequency division

multiplexing (FDM): a number of signals share

a medium that has a much larger bandwidth.

Support of many stages

Time Division Multiplexing (two ways)

Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy Basic data transfer rate is 2048 Kbps It is broken in

30 x 64Kbps 2 x 64Kbps (synchronization and signaling)

The exact are of the 2Mpbs is controlled by a clock with some percentage +/- %0.005

What is Justification or Stuffing Extra bits that are need to reconstruct correctly

Synchronous Transport Module (STM)

STM-1 Frame STM-1 frame is

designed this way because transport the full

range of PDH bit-rates

provide sufficient flexibility to transport future services based

Building transport (interleaving)

The transmission of digital signals over optical fibre allows for transmission rates far in excess of the 155.52 Mbit/s defined as the aggregate rate for STM-1. STM- 4 622.080 Mbit/s STM-16 2488.32 Mbit/s STM-64 9953.28 Mbit/s

SDH Multiplexing Structure

STM1 Frame Equals to 9 × 270 byte block. AU-4 = payload area (9 × 261)

The pointer address is located in row four of the overhead The location of the start of the VC-4

The floating nature of the virtual containers and the pointer is one of the key features of SDH.

The VC-4 occupies the whole payload area of the AU-4.

AU-4 Pointer VC-4 holds

Lower-order virtual containers,

Tributary unit (TU) pointers Indicate the start

position of lower-order VCs.

The AU-4 pointer marks the location of the beginning of VC-4

TU pointers Have a fixed position

within the VC-4. Mark the start of

lower-order VCs.

Simple Transmission System

Two connected multiplexers on an optical link Containing three regenerators.

SDH signals is sent to a distant location, Logical signal is converted to a physical signal. Carried out by the STM-n multiplexer.

Signals are attenuated and distorted The regenerator detects the incoming optical signal and ‘regenerates’ a perfectly formed

signal with the same information content. The distant STM-1 multiplexer receives the optical signal and reconverts it into a logical signal

for processing.

Generators

Overhead

Overhead functionality two types. operation and maintenance of the SDH signal

itself Provides framing, identification and alarm indication.

error performance indication and data communications channels, Provide error performance monitoring and an

embedded management communication channel.

Section overhead regenerator section

overhead (RSOH) multiplex section

overhead (MSOH). A1 and A2 bytes together

contain a frame alignment word. The frame alignment word

is repeated with each frame to maintain alignment and re-alignement.

When STM-1 signals are multiplexed into an STM-4, then the C1 byte allows each STM-1 to be uniquely identified.

The B2 bytes provide an error monitoring capability

(D1 to D12) is to provide an embedded data communications link
