An improved adaptive threshold modulation method for jitter reduction in SDH/SONET

  • Published:

Abstract

Adaptive threshold modulation is widely adopted in SDH/SONET network for pointer processing and mapping. When the processing rate is very high, the performance of an all digital implementation is limited by the phase error resolution. Phase error re-sampling technique is adopted here for the all digital implementation of an improved adaptive threshold modulation, which can work in greatly reduced operating speed with high jitter and wander performance. The improved method is adopted in AU-4 and TU-12 pointer processors and the simulated performance is given.
