Transmission System

The document discusses key concepts in telecommunication transmission systems including: 1. Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy (PDH) uses bit stuffing and justification to transmit digital signals over multiplexed bit streams at rates up to 140 Mbps. This causes small timing variations called jitter and wander. 2. Jitter refers to periodic or stochastic deviations from ideal signal timing over short time periods (under 10 Hz). Wander describes very slow jitter over longer time periods. 3. Disadvantages of PDH include complex equipment changes between hierarchical levels, specialized equipment for higher rates, and compatibility issues between vendors.

Quantization & Encoding

For Quantization CEPT countries use A- Law,other countries use µ-law is used.In µ-law the decoder

output value number is 0 to 127 for positive and 0 to 127 for Negative.While in A- Law ,the decoder output

value number is 1 to128 for positive and 1 to 128 for negative.

Quantizing = Amplitude is given a certain value.

24 Channel System (T1)
The standard frame is 193 bits long
(1 Framing bit + 24 8-bit timeslots).
Each timeslot is scanned at a rate of 8000 times per second.
Therefore, in one second, there are: 8000 * 8 bits/TS * 24 TS =
1,536,000 Bits of "Payload" data transmitted.
There are: 8000 * 1 = 8,000 Bits of synchronization bits
transmitted within a one second interval.
Therefore, the total aggregate rate of the T1 signal is 1,544,000
BPS (1.544 MBPS).

A Superframe consists of twelve 193-bit frames. A framing bit


can support different functions, depending upon which of the
twelve frames it is in. There are two types of framing bits;
Terminal framing (Ft) and Signaling framing (Fs) bits.
                                                                            
1.01 Plesiochronous Digital
Hierarchy
PDH (Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy)

Plesio means = similar

Chronous means= Timing

Plesiochronous - "almost synchronous, because bits are


stuffed into the frames as padding and the
calls (signal) location varies slightly - jitters - from frame to
frame".

Bit Stuffing

Pleisochronous Multiplexing
Bit Stuffing and Justification (Contd..)

The number of stuffing bits added depends not only on the speed
of the tributaries to the multiplexer, but also on the speed of the
higher order bit stream
The justification process is employed in all the PDH Multiplexers

At the far end of the transmission system, the justification bits are
removed and the original digital signal is recovered

The removal of these justification bits causes a small variation in the


phase of the clock.This variation is called “Jitter”
1.02 What are jitter and wander?

Jitter:
jitter” is the term used to designate periodic or stochastic
deviations of the significant instants of a digital signal from the
ideal, equidistant values.
Otherwise stated, the transitions of a digital signal invariably
occur either too early or too late when compared to a perfect
square wave (reference clock).

Wander:
very slow jitter is known as “wander”. ITU-T G.810 puts the limit
between jitter and wander at 10 Hz.

1.03 Disadvantages of PDH

Plesiochronous Hierarchy based on 2Mbps primary rates permits


multiplexing up to 140Mbps respectively.

 Changing from one hierarchical level to another requires additional


equipment.
 Transmitting a multiplexed signal (34/140 Mb, etc) requires
specialized equipment.
 Redirection (cross-connection) of channels must be done by hand on
DDFs.
 Administrative connections require separate equipment to support
Supervision, EOW and protection switching.
 Compatibility of transmission and administrative signals between
different vendor may give trouble.
1.04 Advantages of SDH

 Need for extensive network management capability


within the hierarchy.
 Standard interfaces between equipment.
 Need for inter-working between north American and
European systems.
 Facilities to add or drop tributaries directly from a
high speed signal.
 Standardization of equipment management process.
