The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. Th

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.

However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and co

16、mpliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met.

38、 function ODUkij ODUj/i Optical Data Unit of level j or i (i is optional; i 1, it cannot be known which of the normal traffic signals should be bridged onto the protection entity, until a defect is detected on one of the protected signals. 1:n architectures are capable of carrying an extra (low prio

39、rity, pre-emptable) traffic signal on the protection entity when it is not being used to protect any normal traffic signal. A 1:n architecture can be used even for n = 1 (1:1). This might be chosen over the simpler 1+1 architecture (which requires no head-end actions of the protection algorithm) sin

40、ce 1:1 is capable of carrying extra traffic, where 1+1 is not. m:n In this architecture, m protection entities are used to protect n working entities. This is for further study. With the assumption of a larger APS channel, the coding for the entity number “n“ will use a full byte rather than the few

41、 bits in synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH). Two of the 256 values are reserved: 0 is used to indicate a null signal or the protection entity and 0xFF (255) is used to indicate extra traffic. The architecture at each end of the connection must match. 8.1 Unidirectional and bidirectional switching I

42、n the case of bidirectional transmission, it is possible to choose either unidirectional or bidirectional switching. With unidirectional switching, the selectors at each end are fully independent. With bidirectional switching, an attempt is made to coordinate the two ends so that both have the same

43、bridge and selector settings, even for a unidirectional failure. Bidirectional switching always requires an APS and/or protection communication channel (PCC) to coordinate the two endpoints. Unidirectional switching can protect two unidirectional failures in opposite directions on different entities

44、. Rec. ITU-T G.873.1 (10/2017) 9 8.2 Need for an APS/PCC channel The only switching type that does not require an APS and/or PCC channel is 1+1 unidirectional switching. With a permanent bridge at the head-end and no need to coordinate selector positions at the two ends, the tail-end selector can be

45、 operated entirely according to defects and commands received at the tail-end. Bidirectional switching always requires an APS channel. 1:n unidirectional switching requires an APS channel to coordinate the head-end bridge with the tail-end selector. 8.3 Revertive and non-revertive switching In rever

46、tive operation, traffic is restored to the working entities after a switch reason has cleared. In the case of clearing a command (e.g., Forced Switch), this happens immediately. In the case of clearing of a defect, this generally happens after the expiry of a “Wait-to-Restore“ timer, which is used t

47、o avoid chattering of selectors in the case of intermittent defects. In non-revertive operation, normal traffic is allowed to remain on the protection entity even after a switch reason has cleared. This is generally accomplished by replacing the previous switch request with a “do not revert (DNR)“ r

48、equest, which is low priority. 1+1 protection is often provisioned as non-revertive, as the protection is fully dedicated in any case and this avoids a second “glitch“ to the traffic. There may, however, be reasons to provision this to be revertive (e.g., so that the traffic uses the “short“ directi

49、on around a ring except during failure conditions. Certain operator policies also dictate revertive operation even for 1+1). Usually, 1:n protection is revertive. Certainly in the case where an extra traffic signal is carried on the protection entity, the operation would always be revertive so that the pre-empted extra traffic signal can be restored. It is certainly possible to define the protocol in a way that would permit non-revertive operation for 1:n protec
