9、ond. ii ITU-T Rec. M.2401 (12/2003) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical,

10、 operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in tu

11、rn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOT

12、E In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e

13、.g. interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not s

14、uggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the e

15、vidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, whic

16、h may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementors are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database. ITU 2004 All rights reserved.

The OPUk, together with its overhead, is mapped into the payload area of an Optical Data Unit k (ODUk). The ODUk, together with its overhead, is mapped into the payload ar

36、ea of an Optical Transport Unit k (OTUk). The OTUk is transported over the optical carrier network by inserting it in an Optical Channel (OCh). This picture does not show the various layers of the optical carrier network as their details are not relevant for the purpose of this Recommendation. M.240

For the purp

38、ose of error performance monitoring, the Path Monitoring bytes in the ODUk OH and the Section Monitoring bytes in the OTUk OH are relevant: they contain amongst others Bit Interleaved Parity (BIP), Backward Error Indication (BEI) and Backward Defect Indication (BDI) information.

In this example, the client signal transported between the terminating Digital Crossconnects (DXCs) is an STM-N. This STM-N is carried on the concatenation of an SDH section (OSn) and the end-to-en

41、d connection in the OTN, the ODUk. The ODUk is carried on a concatenation of OTUks, each delimited by a 3R regeneration point. Each OTUk is associated with an optical wavelength by means of the OCh. A number of OChs are multiplexed into an Optical Multiplex Section n (OMSn), which spans the distance

However, for the purposes of BIS and maintenance, both directions are treated as independent entities and all objectives set forth in this Recommendation shall be met by each direction independently of the condition of the other direction. Clause 8 provides further clarif

46、ication on this issue. 6 Performance monitoring capabilities in the OTN 6.1 Optical impairments and digital error performance While traversing an optical fibre or an optically transparent network element, an optical signal is subject to a number of physical phenomena which impair the quality of the

47、signal. Typical examples are attenuation, polarization mode dispersion, chromatic dispersion, four-wave mixing and various scattering phenomena. This Recommendation does not elaborate on the details of these phenomena and the mechanisms through which they might affect the quality of the transport se

48、rvices provided by the optical signal. From the perspective of a client, it is sufficient to recognize that such impact may exist. The way in which this impact may be perceived, detected and quantified depends on the nature of the client signal. As the scope of this Recommendation is limited to digi

49、tal ITU-T Rec. M.2401 (12/2003) 5 client signals as standardized in ITU-T Rec. G.709/Y.1331, it uses the digital error performance of the ODUk and OTUk layer signals as a means to assess the quality of the transport services provided by an OTN. 6.2 Monitored layer signals This Recommendation sets objectives and limits for the path (ODUk) and the section (OTUk). The rationale is: The ODUk is the end-to-end connection in the OTN. Monitoring is needed because its performance is the performance of the OTN as perceived by the client. The OTUk is the
