13、ons Recommendation ITU-T Y.1563 Ethernet frame transfer and availability performance The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) that the demand for bandwidth need is increasing significantly, the microwave technology has also evolved from supporting low capacity to high capacity which can p

14、rovide much higher speed data transmission; b) that packet-based applications constitute major part of existing transport and access networks, and are expected to be strongly increased in near future; 2 Rec. ITU-R F.2113-0 c) that there is a need to establish error performance and availability objec

15、tives to assist in link design and development of packet based networks; d) that no specific reference length is given for end-to-end Ethernet network, and no country based model is available, recognizing a) that Recommendation ITU-T Y.1563 defines parameters that may be used in specifying and asses

16、sing the performance of speed, accuracy, dependability and availability of Ethernet frame transfer of an Ethernet communication service; b) that Recommendation ITU-T Y.1563 defines an end-to-end Ethernet network as the set of EL (exchange link) and NS (Network section) that provide the transport of

17、Ethernet frames transmitted from SRC (Source) to DST (Destination). The MPs that bind the end-to-end Ethernet network are the MPs at the SRC and the DST; c) that the calculation criteria methodology adopted in Recommendations ITU-R F.1668 and ITU-R F.1703 to establish the error performance and avail

18、ability for real fixed wireless links (SDH and PDH traffic) based on Recommendations ITU-T G.826 and ITU-T G.827, recommends 1 that the events and parameters to be used for Error performance and availability needs, including design of real links, should be selected within the set described in Annex

19、1; 2 that error performance and availability objectives for real digital fixed wireless links carrying packet based traffic should be established according to the procedures described in Annex 2. Annex 1 Events and parameters This Annex only deals with Ethernet-based packet applications. 1 Events Fo

20、llowing error performance and availability definition are in accordance with Recommendation ITU-T Y.1563. Severe errored second (SESETH) A severe errored second (SESETH) outcome occurs for a block of frames observed during a one-second interval at ingress MP0 when the corresponding FLR (i.e. the rat

21、io of lost frames to total frames in the block) at egress MPi exceeds s1. A provisional value s1 of 0.5 is proposed by ITU-T, and different values may also be chosen depending on the class of service (CoS). Availability Availability of Ethernet-based network is described by available state and unava

22、ilable state. Rec. ITU-R F.2113-0 3 Unavailable time begins at the onset of 10 consecutive SESETH outcomes, and ends at the onset of 10 consecutive non-SESETH outcomes. During the available time period, the Ethernet network is in available state. Figure 1 illustrates the definition of criteria for t

23、ransition to/from the unavailable state. This definition of availability has been chosen to allow comparison with other link layer techniques. Because an Ethernet service is bidirectional, an Ethernet network is in the unavailable state if either one, or both directions, are in the unavailable state

24、. The unidirectional availability can be measured by the criteria mentioned above.

Per

26、cent Ethernet service availability (PEA) When Ethernet network is in available state in total scheduled Ethernet service time (the percentage of one-second intervals) using the Ethernet service availability function: PEU = 100 PEA. Ethernet frame error ratio (FER) Ethernet frame error ratio is the r

27、atio of total errored Ethernet frame outcomes to the total of successful Ethernet frame transfer outcomes plus errored Ethernet frame outcomes in a population of interest. Ethernet frame loss ratio (FLR) The ratio of total lost Ethernet frame outcomes to total transmitted Ethernet frames in a popula

28、tion of interest. In point-to-multipoint configurations, it can also be useful to compare the successful frame transfers among destinations using the destination with the largest number of successful frame transfers as the reference. 4 Rec. ITU-R F.2113-0 Annex 2 Objectives This Annex only deals wit

29、h Ethernet-based packet applications. 1 Apportionment of objective Error performance and availability objectives for any real point-to-point link carrying PDH /SDH traffic have been established by Recommendations ITU-R F.1668 and ITU-R F.1703, in compliance with an ITU-T media independent apportionm

30、ent criteria, based on the existence of a reference value established for an end-to-end hypothetical connection of 27 500 km length (Recommendation ITU-T G.826). Due to the evolution of technology and the specific nature of Ethernet, no end to end or objectives has been deemed necessary by ITU-T and

31、 no apportionment criteria is available. Nevertheless, Ethernet based radio links continue to be deployed in same geographical and logistic contest used before packet based signals (same regions, towers, propagation, etc.), and there is a need of having objectives to allow proper design of such link

32、s. Error performance and availability objectives for any real point-to-point link carrying Ethernet are given in this Annex, in line with the ITU traditional vision consisting in considering two main kinds of application contests, with two different expected quality levels: Links belonging to “high

33、performing” section of connection (transit countries or international section of terminating countries, long haul sections). Links belonging to “less performing” sections of the path (national part of terminating countries, short haul and access). Different allocation rules are used depending on the

34、 interested Country belong to international transit section or terminates the path. 2 Time requirement for objective evaluation Events evaluation: 1 second. Availability objectives: 1 year Error performance objectives: 1 month 3 Objective PEA PEA objectives applicable to each direction of a fixed wi

39、 of availability objectives This section shows some examples of the application of this Recommendation to real links, in order to derive the objectives. In the following calculations, it is assumed that one year corresponds to 525 960 min. 6 Rec. ITU-R F.2113-0 4.1 International portion Case 1: leng

Case 2: length 80 km The length is in the range 50-250 km, so: 983.99100*)101.1502 80109.111( 441

42、rrespond to an availability of 99.95% (unavailability of 263 min/year). Annex 3 Relation between packet and non packet based parameters Background In order to allow a correct planning of the link, the knowledge of fade margin, or the absolute level at which threshold condition is met, are required.

43、While for PDH/SDH case there is a very consolidated base of measurement, packet based signal thresholds are not so widely referenced. Tables 3, 4 and 5 show examples of comparative measures between PDH and Ethernet parameters, for different modulations and different Ethernet packet lengths. In refer

44、ence system (see Table 3), complete measures are reported; in other modulations, measures without significant deviations are not reported. Test was made on modern 18 GHz equipment, using a simulated link in laboratory. Equipment allow transmission of a hybrid signal (PDH + Ethernet), where, during e

45、ach test, modulation was manually fixed in one of possible states. Rec. ITU-R F.2113-0 7 Reference stream: (2 150 Mbit/s Ethernet + 2 Mbit/s PDH with 256 QAM) in 56 MHz Channel.
