AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD Approval of an American National Standard requires review by ANSI that the requirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval have been met by the standards developer. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Sta

6、ndards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be made toward

These change bars are advisory only, and reflect the editors views of which textual changes constitute significant technical changes. Because of the

18、differences in style and content between this standard and the ITU-T Recommendations, it is not possible to indicate differences using margin marks. This standard contains the following eight chapters: T1.111.1, Functional Description of the Message Transfer Part (MTP). T1.111.2, Signalling Data Lin

33、2.3A Signalling ATM Adaptation Layer (SAAL) and ATM Protocol Architecture 2.2.3A.1 Physical Layer The physical layer provides a means for ATM cells to be transmitted on a transport facility. At this time, SONET, DS1, and DS3 have been specified as physical layer methods for transmitting ATM cells. T

34、he physical transmission rates that have been specified are 51.840 Mbit/s, 155.520 Mbit/s, 622.080 Mbit/s, 2.48832 Gbit/s, 1.544 Mbit/s and 44.736 Mbit/s. The interface specifications of the SONET layer and DS3 are provided in T1.640-2001 (R2006). The interface specifications of the DS1 are provided

35、 in T1.646-2003. 2.2.3A.2 ATM Layer ATM is the transfer mode solution for implementing a B-ISDN. ATM provides high efficiency and flexibility because it provides “virtual channels” instead of dedicated physical channels, allowing better use of the physical resources with high performance capabilitie

36、s (low latency and high capacity). For signalling, the virtual channel connection constitutes a signalling link and can operate at a rate of 64 kbit/s or higher. ATM also allows sharing of Operations and Maintenance (OAM) across multiple services, provides variable information transfer rates, and ca

37、n support versatile call and connection structures. The multiplexed information flow is organized into fixed size cells. The protocol specification of the ATM layer is provided in T1.627-1993 (R2004). T1.111.1-3 ATIS-1000111.2005 Chapter T1.111.1 2.2.3A.3 SAAL The ATM Adaptation Layer (AAL) is defin

38、ed to enhance the services provided by the ATM layer to support the functions required by the next higher layer. One particular type of AAL service is the Signalling AAL (SAAL), which comprises AAL functions necessary to support signalling. The SAAL consists of the AAL Common Part (CP) type 5, the S

39、ervice Specific Connection Oriented Protocol (SSCOP), the Service Specific Coordination Function (SSCF), and the SAAL Layer Management. The SAAL at the Network Node Interface (NNI) provides signalling link functions for the transfer of signalling messages over one individual signalling data link. Th

40、e SAAL functions provide a signalling link for reliable transfer of signalling messages between two signalling points. A signalling message delivered by the higher levels is transferred over the signalling link in variable length protocol data units (PDUs). The overview to SAAL is provided in T1.636

41、-1999 (R2005). 2.2.3A.3.1 Common Part (CP) Several AAL CPs have been identified in T1.635.1999 (R2005); one is known as AAL type 5. The purpose of the type 5 CP is to support those capabilities necessary to meet the upper layer data transfer needs while using the service of the ATM layer. The protoc

42、ol provides the transport of variable length frames (1 to 65535 octets in length) with error detection. The frame is padded to align the resulting protocol data unit to fill an integral number of ATM cells. A CRC-32 is used to detect errors and the length field is used to extract the frame. The prot

43、ocol specification of the type 5 CP is provided in T1.636-1999 (R2005). 2.2.3A.3.2 Service Specific Connection Oriented Protocol (SSCOP) SSCOP is a connection oriented protocol with error recovery providing a generic reliable data transfer service for different AAL interfaces defined by the SSCF. Tw

44、o SSCFs have been defined for signalling: the signalling SSCF at the User Network Interface (UNI), and the signalling SSCF at the Network Node Interface (NNI). SSCOP utilizes the service of the AAL Type 5 CP, which provides an unassured information transfer and a mechanism for detecting corruption o

45、f SSCOP PDUs. The protocol specification of the SSCOP is provided in T1.637-1999 (R2005). 2.2.3A.3.3 Service Specific Coordination Function (SSCF) at the NNI The function of the SSCF is to map the service of the SSCOP of the AAL to the requirements of MTP Level 3. The SSCF at the NNI also provides c

46、ommunication with the SAAL Layer Management for proper operation of signalling links. The protocol specification of the SSCF is provided in T1.645-1995 (R2008). T1.111.1-4 ATIS-1000111.2005 Chapter T1.111.1 2.2.3A.3.4 SAAL Layer Management The layer management functions at the NNI perform a coordina

47、tion function between the system management function and the SAAL. The functions of the layer management at the NNI include error processing, measurements and determination of link quality during proving and normal operation. The protocol specification of the SAAL Layer Management is provided in T1.

48、652-1996(R2006). 2.2.4 Signalling Network Functions (Level 3) Level 3, in principle, defines those transport functions and procedures that are common to, and independent of, the operation of individual signalling links. As illustrated in Figure 2/T1.111.1, these functions fall into two major categor

49、ies: 1. Signalling Message Handling Functions. These are functions that, at the actual transfer of a message, direct the message to the proper signalling link or higher level function. 2. Signalling Network Management Functions. These are functions that, on the basis of predetermined data and information about the status of the signalling network, control the current message routing and configuration of signalling network facilities. In the event of changes in the status, they also control reconfigurations and other actions to preserve or restor
