12、ards Institute (ETSI). This ETS provides requirements for synchronization networks that are compatible with the performance requirements of digital networks. This ETS consists of 6 parts as follows: Part i: “Definitions and terminology for synchronization networks“ (ETS 300 462-1 ). Part 2: “Synchro

13、nisation network architecture“ (ETS 300 462-2). Part 3: Part 4: Part 5: “The control of jitter and wander within synchronization networks“ (ETS 300 462-3). “Timing characteristics of slave clocks suitable for synchronization supply to Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) and Plesiochronous Digital Hi

14、erarchy (PDH) equipment“ (ETS 300 462-4). “Timing characteristics of slave clocks suitable for operation in Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) equipment“. Part 6: “Timing characteristics of primary reference clocks“ (ETS 300 462-6). NOTE: Parts 4 and 6 of this ETS are being developed by STC TM 3 an

17、devices used in synchronising network equipment that operates according to the principles governed by the Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH). These requirements apply under the normal environmental conditions specified for SDH equipment. Typical SDH equipment contains a slave clock linked to a mast

18、er, or a primary reference clock. The logical function of the SEC is described in figure 2 of ETS 300 462-2 3. In general the SDH Equipment Clock (SEC) will have multiple reference inputs. In the event that all links between the master and the slave clock fail, the equipment should be capable of mai

19、ntaining operation (holdover) within the prescribed performance limits contained within this ETS. Slave clocks used in SDH equipment shall meet specific requirements in order to comply with the jitter specifications given in ETS 300 417-1 -1 9 for plesiochronous tributaries. The case where clock per

20、formance is required in SDH equipment is outside the scope of this ETS.This is currently under study as part 4 of this ETC as described in the Foreword. 2 Normative references This ETS incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications.

29、iations used in timing and synchronization is listed in ETS 300 462-1 2. 4 Frequency accuracy Under free-running conditions, the SEC output frequency accuracy shall be within 4,6 pprn with regard to a reference traceable to a clock as specified in ETS 300 462-6 5. NOTE: The time interval for this ac

30、curacy specification is for further study. 5 Pull-in and pull-out ranges The minimum pull-in range shall be f 4,6 ppm, whatever the internal oscillator frequency offset may be. The Pull-out range is for further study. A value of f 4,6 pprn has been proposed. 6 Noise generation The noise generation o

31、f a SEC represents the amount of phase noise produced at the output when there is an ideal input reference signal or the clock is in holdover state. A suitable reference, for practical testing purposes, implies a performance level at least 10 times more stable than the output requirements. The abili

32、ty of the clock to limit this noise is described by its frequency stability. The measures Maximum Time Interval Error (MTIE) and Time Deviation (TDEV) are useful for characterization of noise generation performance. MTIE and TDEV are measured through an equivalent 10 Hz, first order, low-pass measur

33、ement filter, at a maximum sampling time to of 1/30 second. The minimum measurement period for TDEV is twelve times the integration period (T = 12t). 6.1 Wander in locked mode When the SEC is in the locked mode of operation, the MTIE and TDEV measured using the synchronised clock configuration defin

34、ed in figure la of ETS 300 462-1 2 shall have the limits in tables 1 and 2, if the temperature is constant (k 1 K).

36、Non-locked wander When a clock is not locked to a synchronization reference, the random noise components are negligible compared to deterministic effects like initial frequency off set. Consequently the non-locked wander effects are included in subclause 9.1. 6.3 Jitter While most specifications in

37、this ETS are independent of the output interface at which they are measured, this is not the case for jitter production; jitter generation specifications shall utilize existing specifications that are currently specified differently for different interface rates. These requirements are stated separa

38、tely for the interfaces identified in clause 1 O. To be consistent with other jitter requirements the specifications are in Unit Interval peak to peak (Uipp), where the Unit Interval (Ui) corresponds to the reciprocal of the bit rate of the interface. NOTE: Due to the stochastic nature of jitter, th

39、e peak-to-peak values given in this clause eventually are exceeded. The requirements shall therefore be fulfilled with a probability of 99 %. 6.3.1 Output jitter at a 2 048 kHz and 2 048 kbis interface In the absence of input jitter, the intrinsic jitter at a 2 048 kHz or 2 048 kbis output interface

40、 as measured over a 60 seconds interval shall not exceed 0,05 Ulpp when measured through a band-pass filter with corner frequencies at 20 Hz and 100 kHz each with a first order 20 dB/decade roll-off characteristic. 6.3.2 Output jitter at a Synchronous Transport Module N (STM-N) interface In the abse

41、nce of input jitter at the synchronization interface, the intrinsic jitter at optical STM-N output interfaces as measured over a 60 seconds interval shall not exceed the limits given in table 4. The allowed jitter on an STM-1 electrical interface is for further study. Table 4: Output jitter requirem

42、ents for STM-N optical interfaces for STM-1: 1 UI = 6,43 ns; for STM-4: 1 UI = 1,61 ns; for STM-16: 1 UI = 0.40 ns.

43、g limit: AT(S) = (a, + a2) s + 0,s b 2 + c where : NOTE 1: NOTE 2: NOTE 3: NOTE 4: al = 50 ns/s (see note 1); a2 = 2 O00 ns/s (see note 2); b = 1,16 x 10“ ns/s* (see note 3); C = 120 ns (see note 4). The frequency offset al represents an initial frequency offset corresponding to 5 x (0,05 PP). The f

44、requency offset a2 accounts for temperature variations after the clock went into holdover and corresponds to 2 x 10, (2 ppm). If there are no temperature variations, the term a2 S should not contribute to the phase error. The drift b is caused by ageing: 1,16 x ns/s2 corresponds to a frequency drift

45、 of 1 x lo* /day (0,Ol ppm/day). This value is derived from typical ageing characteristics after 10 days of continuous operation. It is not intended to measure this value on a per day basis as the temperature effect will dominate. The phase offset C takes care of any additional phase shift that may

46、arise during the transition at the entry of the holdover state. This limit is subject to a maximum frequency offset of f 4,6 ppm. The behaviour for S 1 In summary the requirements listed above lead to the following bandwidth constraints for the SEC in table A.l. distribution chain; SSU/SEClbandwidth

The difficulty in measu

49、ring the phase transfer characteristic is that the (phase) signals that are transferred through the clock have to be substantially larger than the internally generated phase noise. This may require large input phase deviations, which may cause overflow of the phase detector or may throw the SEC into holdover. Such events would make the measurement worthless. Depending on the particular implementation of an SEC, different methods of measuring may be appropriate to measure the transfer characteristic. Relevant factors are the amount of internally generated phase noise,
