10、S) has been produced by the Transmission and Multiplexing (TM) Technical Committee of the European Telecommunication Standards Institute (ETSI) in order to provide requirements for synchronization networks that are compatible with the performance requirements for digital networks.

15、the architectural principles described in ETS 300 462-2 2. A synchronization network that complies with the network limits for jitter and wander specified in this ETS will be suitable for the synchronization of Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) and Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) networks

16、. It combines the short term stability requirements of SDH networks with the long term stability requirements of the PSTN. The values specified in this ETS refer to the design of new synchronization networks. They do not necessarily represent the performance of existing PSTN synchronization networks

17、. The network limits specified in this ETS form the network requirements from which the clock specifications in ETS 300 462-4 3, ETS 300 462-5 4 and ETS 300 462-6 5 have been derived. 2 Normative references This ETS incorporates by dated and undated reference, provisions from other publications.

27、. The philosophy for the control of jitter and wander in the synchronization network layer is the same as applied to the payload carrying layers of the transport network, which can be found in ITU-T Recommendation G.823 7. It is based on the need to recommend a maximum network limit that should not

28、be exceeded at any synchronization interface. This network limit represents the worst case accumulation of jitter and wander within the synchronization network reference chain shown in figure 5 of ETS 300 462-2 2. The main purpose for defining a network limit is that it provides the maximum amount o

29、f jitter and wander that any synchronization element in the network may experience at its input, since the network limit should not be exceeded at the output of a synchronization element anywhere in the network. The network limits therefore provide indirectly the requirements for the lower limit of

30、maximum tolerable jitter and wander at the input of synchronization elements. The wander tolerance of the large installed base of 64 kbit/s digital switches, .e. the differential wander that a switch will tolerate before giving rise to controlled slip, together with the slip performance objectives s

31、tated in ITU-T Recommendation G.822 6, have to be respected when introducing new transport technologies in the network. This differential wander is the cumulative effect of wander in the synchronization network and the wander that the transport of the data between switches may introduce. In the case

32、 of SDH, in most implementations, the latter is dependent on the wander that the SDH network elements experience at their synchronization inputs. The wander in a synchronization network that is also suitable for the synchronization of SDH therefore needs to be controlled to a level that is compatibl

33、e with the slip performance objectives of the 64 kbit/s switched network. It should be noted that the implication of the network limit definition is, that in practical networks the jitter and wander values at most synchronization interfaces should be well within the network limits, because the netwo

34、rk limits will only appear at the end of a synchronization chain that is as long as the reference chain.

35、figure 1. This figure is an expanded version of figure 6 of ETS 300 462-2 2 showing examples of actual physical interfaces that may appear in synchronization networks. Universal Time Co-ordinated (UTC) is indicated in the figure as the reference relative to which all network limits are specified. Be

36、cause of the way it is defined, there is no physical entity or interface associated with UTC. Two alternative synchronization distribution methods may be used between Synchronization Supply Unit (SSUs), and between Primary Reference Clock (PRC) and SSUs. SDH distribution makes use of the SDH section

37、 layer and may be a cascade of sections with at most 20 intermediate SDH network elements, each containing an SDH Equipment Clock (SEC). Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy (PDH) distribution makes use of a 2 Mbit/s PDH path that may be traversing a number of intermediate PDH multiplexing stages and PD

38、H line systems. These are not shown explicitly, because they do not contain clocks that are subject to this ETS. .,. . . . . . .UTC . . . . . . . . . . . . .

41、 the synchronization network: - - - - synchronization interfaces at PRC outputs; synchronization interfaces at SSU outputs; synchronization interfaces at SEC outputs; synchronization interfaces at PDH distribution outputs. This ETS therefore provides four sets of network limit requirements, one for

42、each type of interface. 6 Synchronization reference network The synchronization reference chain defined in figure 5 of ETS 300 462-2 2 has to support not only a homogeneous SDH transport network, to which the transport network will evolve sooner or later, but also the evolution towards an all SDH tr

43、ansport network. In the transitional period, a mixed situation will exist where data paths may traverse both PDH and SDH sub-networks. The additional PDH/SDH mappings give rise to an increase of the wander that the data path is experiencing because the wander that appears at the output of one SDH is

44、land is passed on transparently through subsequent islands via the asynchronous mapping process. It is therefore the transitional period which puts the most stringent requirements on the performance of the synchronization network. To provide for consistency between the specifications of the individu

45、al synchronization elements and the network limits an iterative process has been followed. The accumulation of wander in the synchronization reference network has been calculated based on a set of assumptions on: - - - the number and performance of individual synchronization elements; the number and

46、 size of transients in the synchronization network; the level of diurnal wander. The resulting quality of the synchronization network has then been applied to a reference model for the data path of four synchronous islands. Subsequently, the set of assumptions has been varied until a combination was

47、 found that met the requirement for the average differential wander experienced by a slip buffer terminated equipment (e.g. a 64 kbit/s exchange) of less than 18 ps measured over one day. The assumptions that were found to meet this requirement are documented in annex B. It is stressed however that

48、many other combinations of assumptions are conceivable that will comply with the network limits resulting from the set given in annex B. These are elaborated in this informative annex for guidance only. Provided these assumptions are fulfilled, the 18 ps wander limit will be met also across multiple

49、 operator domains. A network operator may use a different set of rules, e.g. with a different number of SSUs and other assumptions about the transients in the synchronization chain, provided the synchronization network limits for jitter and wander specified in this standard are adhered to. 7 Network limits for jitter and wander at synchronization interfaces The specification of network limits for synchronization interfaces is primarily intended to reflect the results of a theoretical analysis of the worst case
