Abstract

This chapter describes how the basic timing concepts and models introduced in Chap. 1 are used to solve timing problems in real-world telecom systems.

We will consider:

  • Slip frequency and period estimation in digital switching centers (SC) connection (Sect. 2.1).

  • Synchronous and asynchronous multiplexing in PDH/SDH transmission system, including bit staffing, pointer justification, etc. (Sect. 2.2).

“Two generators problem” (GGP) cause slips (controlled or uncontrolled) in digital equipment/connections. The slip mechanism is discussed in Chap. 1 (Examples 1.12, 1.13, 1.14 and 1.15 and Exercises 1.19, 1.20 and 1.21). This chapter deals with controlled slip means only.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Quantile is showing that a given random variable does not exceed the given value with a fixed probability.

  2. 2.

    It shows that a given random variable does exceed the given value with a fixed probability.

  3. 3.

    Justification rate (stuffing rate)—the rate at which justifying digits are inserted or at which information digits are transmitted by other means [G.701].

  4. 4.

    ρnom is the justification rate that occurs when the digit rates of both the original signal and the justified signal are at their nominal values [G.701].

  5. 5.

    In the E22 frame, every E12 is allocated n = 206 bits (Table A.3).

  6. 6.

    The nominal half EM capacity is one UI.

  7. 7.

    The detailed information about SDH multiplexing principles, frame structure, and frequency justification by pointers can be found in ITU-T Recommendation G.707/Y.1322.

  8. 8.

    This phase offset is partially compensated by special correction circuits in SDH equipment.
