SDH What is it ?? Synchronous Digital Hierarchy is the international standard for transmitting digital information over optical networks
SDH • The Concept ! • Signals with a higher transmission rate are obtained by multiplexing several low rate signal • Every signal in the hierarchy levels has a specific frame structure • All multiplex levels are positive integer multiples of the base signal
SDH • Synchronous Signals !! • Data signals which have same nominal transmission rates, but come from different sources, controlled by a central clock frequency are clock aligned to each other
SDH • Plesiochronous Signals !! • Data signals which have same nominal transmission rates, but come from different sources, have slightly higher or lower value than the nominal bit rate • There is a small amount of variation between them, such signals are almost synchronous to each other and therefore termed as Plesiochronous
SDH • Plesiochronous Network • The individual link sections are not synchronous to each other • Synchronous Network • In synchronous network, the link sections are synchronous to each other
SDH • PDH multiplex hierarchies !
SDH • PDH multiplex hierarchies !
STM-N Nx155.52Mbps STM-16 2.05 Gbps STM-4 622.08 Mbps SDH • What is STM-1?? • ITU-T defined the STM-1 (Synchronous transport module -1), 155.52 Mbps as base signal for SDH • All multiplex levels are positive integer multiples of this base signal (STM-1)
SDH • Structure of an STM-1 frame !! • The two dimensional representation of an STM-1 frame includes 9 rows with 270 bytes each • The sequence of transmission is top left to bottom right
SDH • Structure of an STM-1 frame !!
SDH • Transmission rate of STM-1 ??
SDH • Structure of an STM-1 frame !! • STM-1 frame has three types of blocks • Section Overhead • PTR (pointer) • Payload
SDH • Multiplexing technique ! • Byte Interleaving (byte-by-byte multiplexing)
SDH • Structure of an STM-1 frame !! • Every STM frame is transmitted 8000 times per second • Every byte in an STM-1 frame has a transmission capacity of 64 kbps
SDH • Multiplexing technique !
SDH • Mapping of ATM cells ! • Prior to their transmission, ATM cells are interleaved into the container C-4 (Mapping)
SDH • Mapping of ATM cells ! • A C-4 is provided every 125 micro seconds • An ATM cell can be transmitted via two C-4
SDH • Mapping of ATM cells ! • In order to transmit container C-4 in the STM-1, container specific supplementing is necessary • The C-4 receives a path over head with a size of 9 bytes
SDH • Mapping of ATM cells ! • The block resulting from C-4 and POH is called virtual container VC-4
SDH • MAPPING OF ATM CELLS ! • THERE IS A FLOATING EMBEDDING OF VC-4 INTO THE STM-1 FRAME PAYLOAD • PART OF THE VC-4 MAY BE TRANSMITTED IN ONE STM FRAME AND ANOTHER PART IN THE NEXT STM FRAME
SDH • Mapping of ATM cells ! • The pointer indicates start of the Virtual container 4 in the payload
SDH • Mapping of ATM cells ! • Component of the STM-1, inside which a VC-4 is able to float and which consists of the block PTR and payload is known as Administrative unit 4 (AU-4)
SDH • Mapping of ATM cells ! • In the AU-4, pointer is abbreviated AU-4 PTR
SDH • Mapping of ATM cells ! • To complete the STM-1 frame section overhead is added to AU-4
SDH • Mapping of ATM cells ! • Individual steps of creating an STM-1
SDH • Mapping of ATM cells ! • In SDH, containers with a fixed capacity are provided every 125 micro second • Incorporation of ATM cells into STM
SDH • SDH Products !!
