Overview of OFC Fibre Optics:An optical fibre (or optical fibre) is a flexible, transparent fibre made of glass (silica) or plastic, slightly thicker than a human hair. It functions as a waveguide, or light pipe, to transmit light between the two ends of the fibre. The field of applied science and engineering concerned with the design and application of optical fibres is known as fibre optics. Information is encoded into electrical signals. Electrical signals are converted into light signals. Light travels down the fibre. A detector changes the light signals into electrical signals. Electrical signals are decoded into information. Principle of operation:Total Internal Reflection:- The reflection that occurs when a light ray travelling in one material hits a different material and reflects back into the original material without any loss of light.

Advantages of optical fibres over wires


Lower cost in the long run Low loss of signal (typically less than 0.3 dB/km), so repeater-less transmission over long distances is possible

Large data-carrying capacity . Immunity to electromagnetic interference. No electromagnetic radiation. High electrical resistance, so safe to use near high-voltage equipment or between areas with different earth potentials

Low weight Signals contain very little power. No crosstalk between cables Difficult to place a tap or listening device on the line, providing better physical network security

Disadvantages of optical fibres compared to wires


High investment cost Need for more expensive optical transmitters and receivers More difficult and expensive to splice than wires Fibbers can be used as light guides in medical .

Applications of optical fibres Optical fibres can be used as sensors to measure strain, temperature,

pressure and other parameters.

Bundles of fibres are used along with lenses for long, thin imaging devices called endoscopes.

A few communities have Fiber to the Home technology which provides subscribers with Ultra High Speed Internet, Telephone, and Television services. Transmission sequence: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Information is encoded into electrical signals. Electrical signals are converted into light signals. Light travels down the fiber. A detector changes the light signals into electrical signals. Electrical signals are decoded into information.

Transmission 2013

Principle of operation: Reflection: - It occurs when light rays travelling in one mediumStrike against another material/ medium with different refractive index and bounce back to the first medium.

5.3.1 Refraction of light: Speed of light is actually the velocity of electromagnetic energy in vacuum such as space. Light travels at slower velocities in other materials such as glass. Light travelling from one material to another changes speed, which results in light changing its direction of travel. This deflection of light is called refraction. When light travels from lower refractive index to higher refractive index it bends towards normal.

But light going from a higher index to a lower one refracting away from the normal.

Transmission 2013

5.3.2 Critical angle: The angle of incidence for which angle of refraction is 900. 6 Snells law: For a given pair of media and wave of single frequency

Sin 1 = n2 Sin 2 n1

v1 v2

Or

n1sin 1 = n2sin 2

Total internal reflection: Occurs only if a) n2 < n1 i.e. if light travels from denser to rarer medium b) Angle of incidence is greater than Critical angle

Transmission 2013

The light is reflected back to the 1st medium and doesnt enter the second medium When angle of incidence is equal to critical angle i.e. when 1 = c then angle of refraction 2 = 90o .

Propagation of Light through Fiber: Optical fiber has two concentric layers Core The light carrying part Cladding Surrounds Core R.I of Cladding < R.I of Core . Allows Total Internal reflection through core.

Total Internal Reflection : The light striking the core cladding interface at angle greater than critical angle is reflected back into the core.

Transmission 2013

Coating or Buffer coating acts as shock absorber only, doesnt have any optical properties.

Since angle of incidence and angle of reflection are equal the reflected light is again reflected and will keep on reflecting again and again through the length of the fiber.

The light striking the core cladding interface at angle less than critical angle
is passed onto the cladding and is lost over a distance Fiber Geometry Core: Made up of optically transparent material usually Silica or Borosilicate glass. Cladding: Material same as that of Core with slightly lower R.I Diameters o Core (m): 8 to 10 in Single Mode Fiber 50 to 62.5 in multimode fiber

o Cladding (m): 125 Practically: o Core: 9 m o Cladding: 125 m Fiber cable has 12 colours at international level: 1. Blue 2. Orange 3. Green 4. Brown 5. Slate(grey) 6. White(milky white) 7. Red 8.

Yellow 10.Violet 11.Pink(rose) 12.Aqua (sky blue)(sea water) Optical Fiber Parameters: Wavelength: It is usually determined by considering the distance between consecutive corresponding points of the same phase, such as crests, troughs, or zero crossings. It is a characteristic of the light source. It is measured in nanometer (nm). Frequency: Number of pulses emitted from a light source per second Measured in hertz (Hz). 1Hz = 1 pulse / S. Window A window is defined as the range of wavelengths at which the fiber best operates First Window 850 nm ( 800 nm 900 nm) Second Window 1300 nm (1250 nm 1350 nm) Third Window 1550 nm ( 1500 nm 1600 nm)

Fibre Types:By classification: Single Mode Multi-mode upon refractive index profile: Step Index Single Mode step Index Multi Mode step Index Graded Index Multimode graded Index Single Mode:An optical fiber designed to carry only a single ray of light (mode). Multi Mode:- large core and also the possibility of large numerical aperture, multi-mode fiber has higher "light-gathering" capacity than single-mode fiber. Step Index:Step-index fibers have a uniform core with one index of refraction, and a uniform cladding with a smaller index of refraction. (Air serves as the cladding in the simple glass tube example.) When plotted on a graph as a function of distance from the center of the fiber, the index of refraction resembles a step function

11

Transmission 2013

Graded Index:Graded Index Fiber is a type of fiber where the refractive index of the core is lower toward the outside of the fiber. It bends the rays inward and also allows them to travel faster in the lower index of refraction region. This type of fiber provides high bandwidth capabilities.

Optical Fiber Loss and Attenuation The attenuation of an optical fiber measures the amount of light lost between input and output. Total attenuation is the sum of all losses.

12

Transmission 2013

Optical losses of a fiber are usually expressed in decibels per kilometer (dB/km). The expression is called the fibers attenuation coefficient and the expression is For a given fiber, these losses are wavelength-dependent which is shown in the figure below. The value of the attenuation factor depends greatly on the fiber material and the manufacturing tolerances, but the figure below shows a typical optical fibers attenuation spectral distribution. The typical fused silica glass fibers we use today has a minimum loss at 1550nm.

Absorption Optical Fiber Loss Mechanisms

13

Transmission 2013

Absorption is uniform. The same amount of the same material always absorbs the same fraction of light at the same wavelength. If you have three blocks of the same type of glass, each 1-centimeter thick, all three will absorb the same fraction of the light passing through them. Absorption also is cumulative, so it depends on the total amount of material the light passes through. If the absorption is 1% per centimeter, it absorbs 1% of the light in the first centimeter, and 1% of the remaining light the next centimeter, and so on. Intrinsic Material Absorption Intrinsic absorption is caused by interaction of the propagating lightwave with one more more major components of glass that constitute the fibers material composition. These looses represent a fundamental minimum to the attainable loss and can be overcome only by changing the fiber material. An example of such an interaction is the infrared absorption band of SiO2 shown in the above figure. However, in the wavelength regions of interest to optical communication (0.8-0.9um and 1.2-1.5um), infrared absorption tails make negligible contributions. Extrinsic Impurity Ions Absorption Extrinsic impurity ions absorption is caused by the presence of minute quantity of metallic ions (such as Fe2+, Cu2+, Cr3+) and the OH- ion from water dissolved in glass. The attenuation from these impurity ions is shown in the following table.

14

Transmission 2013

From the table above, we can see that 1 part per million (ppm) of Fe2+ would lead to a loss of 0.68 dB/km at 1.1um. This shows the necessity of ultrapure fibers. Luckily, losses due to the metallic ions can be reduced to very low by refining the glass mixture to an impurity level below 1 par per billion (ppb). The OH- ion from water vapor in the glass leads to absorption peaks at 0.72um, 0.88um, 0.95um, 1.13um, 1.24um and 1.38um. The broad peaks at 1.24um and 1.38um in the first figure cure are due to OH- ion. The good news is OH- ion absorption band is narrow enough that ultrapure fibers can achieve losses less than 0.2 dB/km at 1.55um. With new manufacturing techniques, we can reduce the OH- ion content to below 1 part per billion (ppb). The results are ultra-low-loss fibers which have a wider low-loss window in silica glass fibers shown in the following figure. This improvement enables the use of WDM technology in fiber optic networks, which dramatically increased the capacity of fiber optic systems.

Scattering
15

Transmission 2013

Scattering losses occur when a wave interacts with a particle in a way that removes energy in the directional propagating wave and transfers it to other directions. The light isnt absorbed, just sent in another direction. However, the distinction between scattering and absorption doesnt matter much because the light is lost from the fiber in either case. There are two main types of scattering: Linear scattering Nonlinear scattering. For linear scattering, the amount of light power that is transferred from a wave is proportional to the power in the wave. It is characterized by having no change in frequency in the scattered wave.On the other hand, nonlinear scattering is accompanied by a frequency shift of the scattered light. Nonlinear scattering is caused by high values of electric field within the fiber (modest to high amount of optical power). Nonlinear scattering causes significant power to be scattered in the forward, backward, or sideways directions. Rayleigh Scattering (Linear Scattering) Rayleigh scattering (named after the British physicist Lord Rayleigh) is the main type of linear scattering. It is caused by small-scale (small compared with the wavelength of the lightwave) inhomogeneities that are produced in the fiber fabrication process. Examples of inhomogeneities are glass composition fluctuations (which results in minute refractive index change) and density fluctuations (fundamental and not improvable). Rayleigh scattering accounts for about 96% of attenuation in optical fiber.

16

Transmission 2013

As light travels in the core, it interacts with the silica molecules in the core. These elastic collisions between the light wave and the silica molecules result in Rayleigh scattering. If the scattered light maintains an angle that supports forward travel within the core, no attenuation occurs. If the light is scattered at an angle that does not support continued forward travel, the light is diverted out of the core and attenuation occurs. Depending on the incident angle, some portion of the light propagates forward and the other part deviates out of the propagation path and escapes from the fiber core. Some scattered light is reflected back toward the light source. This is a property that is used in an OTDR (Optical Time Domain Reflectometer) to test fibers.

Rayleigh scattering describes the elastic scattering of light by particles which are much smaller than the wavelength of light. The intensity of the scattered radiation is given by Rayleigh scattering depends not on the specific type of material but on the size of the particles relative to the wavelength of light. The loss due to Rayleigh scattering is proportional to -4 and obviously decreases rapidly with increase in wavelength (see the first figure above Loss vs.. Wavelength). Short
17

Transmission 2013

wavelengths are scattered more than longer wavelengths. Any wavelength that is below 800nm is unusable for optical communication because attenuation due to Rayleigh scattering is too high. Mie Scattering (Linear Scattering) Mie scattering is named after German physicist Gustav Mie. This theory describes scattering of electromagnetic radiation by particles that are comparable in size to a wavelength (larger than 10% of wavelength). For particles much larger, and much smaller than the wavelength of scattered light there are simple and excellent approximations that suffice. For glass fibers, Mie scattering occurs in inhomogeneities such as core-cladding refractive index variations over the length of the fiber, impurities at the corecladding interface, strains or bubbles in the fiber, or diameter fluctuations. Mie scattering can be reduced by carefully removing imperfections from the glass material, carefully controlling the quality and cleanliness of the manufacturing process. In commercial fibers, the effects of Mie scattering are insignificant. Optical fibers are manufactured with very few large defects. (larger than 10% of wavelength) Brillouin Scattering (Nonlinear Scattering) Brillouin scattering is caused by the nonlinearity of a medium. In glass fibers, Brillouin scattering shows as a modulation of the light by the thermal energy in the material.
18

Transmission 2013

An incident photon can be converted into a scattered photon of slightly lower energy, usually propagating in the backward direction, and a phonon (vibrational energy). This coupling of optical fields and acoustic waves occurs via electrostriction. The frequency of the reflected beam is slightly lower than that of the incident beam; the frequency difference vB corresponds to the frequency of emitted phonons. This is called Brillouin Frequency Shift. This phenomenon has been used for fiber optic sensor applications.

Brillouin scattering can occur spontaneously even at low optical powers. This is different than Stimulated Brillouin Scattering which requires optical power to meet a threshold high enough to happen. Above a certain threshold power, stimulated Brillouin scattering can reflect most of the power of an incident beam. The optical power level at which stimulated
19

Transmission 2013

Brillouin scattering becomes significant in a single mode fiber is given by the empirical formula below. Stimulated Raman Scattering (Nonlinear Scattering) Stimulated Raman scattering is a nonlinear response of glass fibers to the optical intensity of light. This is caused by vibrations of the crystal (or glass) lattice. Stimulated Raman scattering produces a high-frequency optical phonon, as compared to Brillouin scattering, which produces a low-frequency acoustical phonon, and a scattered photon. When two laser beams with different wavelengths (and normally with the same polarization direction) propagate together through a Raman-active medium, the longer wavelength beam can experience optical amplification at the expense of the shorter wavelength beam. This phenomenon has been used for Raman amplifiers and Raman lasers.

Macrobending Loss Macrobending happens when the fiber is bent into a large radius of curvature relative to the fiber diameter (large bends). These bends become a great source of power loss when the radius of curvature is less than several
20

Transmission 2013

centimeters.Macrobend may be found in a splice tray or a fiber cable that has been bent. Macrobend wont cause significant radiation loss if it has large enough radius.However, when fibers are bent below a certain radius, radiation causes big light power loss as shown in the figure below.

Microbending Loss Microbendings are the small-scale bends in the core-cladding interface. These are localized bends can develop during deployment of the fiber, or can be due to local mechanical stresses placed on the fiber, such as stresses induced by cabling the fiber or wrapping the fiber on a spool or bobbin. Microbends can cause 1 to 2 dB/km losses in fiber cabling process.

OFC Splicing Splices are permanent connection between two fibers. The splicing involves cutting of the edges of the two fibers to be spliced. Splicing Methods:
21

Transmission 2013

The following three types are widely used: 1. Adhesive bonding or Glue splicing. 2. Mechanical splicing. 3. Fusion splicing. 1. Adhesive Bonding or Glue Splicing: This is the oldest splicing technique used in fiber splicing. After fiber end preparation, it is axially aligned in a precision Vgroove. Cylindrical rods or another kind of reference surfaces are used for alignment. During the alignment of fiber end, a small amount of adhesive or glue of same refractive index as the core material is set between and around the fiber ends. A two component epoxy or an UV curable adhesive is used as the bonding agent. The splice loss of this type of joint is same or less than fusion splices. But fusion splicing technique is more reliable, so at present this technique is very rarely used. 2. Mechanical Splicing: This technique is mainly used for temporary splicing in case of emergency repairing. This method is also convenient to connect measuring instruments to bare fibers for taking various measurements. 3. Fusion Splicing: The fusion splicing technique is the most popular technique used for achieving very low splice losses. The fusion can be achieved either through electrical arc or through gas flame. The process involves cutting of the fibers and fixing them in micro positioners on the fusion splicing machine. The fibers are then aligned either manually or automatically core aligning (in case of S.M.fiber) process. Afterwards the operation that takes place involve withdrawal of the fibers to a specified distance, preheating of the fiber ends through electric arc and bringing together of the fiber ends in a position and splicing through high temperature fusion. o Operation of fusion splicer: Splicer Operation: It is awkward at first to hold, strip, cleave and place the fiber in the clamps.
22

Transmission 2013

Practice makes perfect. Here are five general steps to complete a fusion splice: 1. Strip, Clean, & Cleave a. Strip Strip fiber to appropriate length per your splicer's instruction manual.

b. Cleaning Clean the fiber with Fiber-Clean towelettes or a lint-free wipe and isopropyl alcohol so that the fiber squeaks.

c. Cleaving
Place fiber (after stripping and cleaning it) in cleaver using the fiber guide to position it Align the fiber in the cleave area to cleave at the proper length Depress the cleaver arm gently Remove and safely discard the fiber scrap

2. Load Splice

Position tip of fiber near electrodes

Do not bump tips into anything Ease placement by bowing fibers in groove.

3. Splice Fibers READ The Manual! WATCH The Video (M90, X77, miniMASS and FuseLite available) PRACTICE! Don't expect to be a pro after one splice Place first cleaved fiber in v-groove with fiber tip near the electrodes Close the fiber clamps Repeat on opposite side for second fiber Select program on fusion splicer Initiate fuse cycle (can be manual or automatic) 4. Diagnose and Correct If Errors Occur Cleaver - wipe blade and clamps periodically - operate slowly; it's not a stapler! Alignment - clean V-grooves, guides, clamps when offsets occur Electrodes - clean at the start of each day; Video System - clean LEDs, prisms/mirrors, cameras, and protective disk High Loss - fibers not aligned, poor geometry, dirty electrodes, or wrong parameters Multimode fiber - bubbles and neck downs are frequent occurrences: expect about 80% yield on most splicers Titan fiber - difficult to cleave: deeper score, splices hotter: reduce current settings for ribbon A "Good Splice" is determined by: - User Skill: cleanliness, operation of equipment, ability to recognize and correct poor preconditions - Splicer: V-groove, cladding alignment vs. core alignment, proper settings - Fiber: good geometry quality

5. Remove and Protect Splice Remove completed splice from splice area Use Heat-Shrink oven (or mechanical protection) to protect the splice Place splice tray in adjustable tray holder and insert protected splice into splice tray.

Overview of Transmission Technology 1) PCM (Pulse code Modulation) 2) PDH (Plesiochronous digital hierarchy) 3) SDH (synchronous Digital Hierarchy)

PCM (Pulse code Modulation):-

It was only in 1938 Mr.A.M. Reaves (USA) developed a pulse code


modulation (PCM) system to transmit the spoken word in digital form. Since the digital speech transmission has become an alternative to the analog system. PCM system use TDM technique to provide a number of circuits on the same transmission medium via open wire or underground cable pair or a cannel provided by carrier, coaxial, microwave or satellite system. Basic requirements for PCM system To develop a PCM signal from several analog signals, the processing steps are required a) Filtering b) Sampling c) Quantization d) Companding e) Encoding f) Multiplexing g) Line coding a) Filtering: filters are used to limit the speech signal to the frequency band 300-3400 Hz. b) Sampling: In signal processing, sampling is the reduction of a continuous signal to a discrete signal. A common example is the conversion of a sound wave (a continuous signal) to a sequence of samples (a discrete-time signal). Sample: A sample refers to a value or set of values at a point in time or space. Sampler: It is a subsystem or operation or subsystem that extracts samples from continuous signal.

26

Transmission 2013

A theoretical ideal sampler produces samples equivalent to the instantaneous value of the continuous signal at the desired points.

Sampling Theorem: If a band limited signal is sampled at regular interval of time and at a rate equal to more than twice the highest signal frequency in the band, then the sample contains all the information of the original signal. Mathematically, if fH is the highest frequency in the signal to be sampled then the sampling frequency Fs needs to be greater than 2fH. I.e. Fs>2fH For e.g. - Let us say our voice signals are band limited to 4 KHz and let sampling frequency be 8 KHz. Time period of sampling Ts= 1sec/8000 Or Ts= 125 micro seconds. Types of sampling: sampling is of two types: 1) Natural sampling: Top of signal is just replica of incoming signal. 2) Flat-top sampling: In this we use sample and hold circuit. Top of signal is flat that is why it is known as flat-top sampling.

Flat-top sampling

Sample and hold circuit

c) Quantization: Assigning standard, specific or unique value or round off value. Or to provide particular / finite voltage level. Or in mathematics and digital signal processing, is the process of mapping large set of input values to a smaller set- such as rounding values to some unit of precision. Quantizer: A device or algorithmic function that performs quantization is called quantizer.

. Sampled signal (discrete signal): discrete time, continuous values. Quantized signal: continuous time, discrete values.

Steps for quantization: Divide each sample into steps. Before quantization there may be infinite value. After quantization there are only finite values. PCM system assigns the lower value of the step. Decoder at receiving end always decodes the middle value of the level. Quantization error: The error introduced by quantization is referred to as quantization error or round-off error. Q.E= transmitted value- receiving value If transmitted value= 3.9
28

Transmission 2013

And receiving value =3.5 Then Q.E= transmitted value- receiving value Q.E=3.9-3.5=0.4 Maximum quantization error: It is defined as half of the step size. Q.Emax = s/2 = step size/2 If step size= 1 then Q.Emax = s/2 = = 0.5

To check quality: We use SNR (signal to noise ratio). If we want good quality then the value of SNR must be high. If we require high SNR then Q.E must be low. Q.E must be reduced by reducing/ decreasing the step size. If we reduce the step size then another problem is the number of levels increases due to that there is problem of coding due to that bit rate increases. Practically PCM divides into 256 levels or steps. d) Companding: This is non-linear quantization. It compresses signal at transmitting end and expand signal at receiving end. Or shortening the step size for lower level signal and widening the step size for higher level signal.

29

Transmission 2013

Original signal

After compressing, before expanding

There are two laws of companding: 1) A law of companding. 2) law of companding. e) Encoding: Conversion of quantized analog levels to binary signal is called as encoding. To represent 256 steps, 8 level code is required. The 8 bit code is also an 8 bit word. The 8 bit word appears in the form P Polarity bit identification 1 for +ve 0 for -ve 1 bit Encoding Segment Number 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Range of Segment 0-31 32-63 64-127 128-255 256-511 512-1023 1024-2047 2048-4095 Step Size 2vp 2vp 4vp 8vp 16vp 32vp 64vp 128vp ABC Segment bits WXYZ Q.I. bits 3 bits 4 bits

Foe examples: Encoding of +280vp 1) +280vp is +ve so first of all we have to find value of P The value of P is 1 for +ve value
30

Transmission 2013

So P=1 2) It lies in 4th segment Find binary equivalent for 4, it is 100 So value of ABC=100 th 3) As it lies in 4 segment it has range 256-511 Its step size is 16. So divide it into 16 intervals to find Q.I. (quantization interval). Like 256-271, 272-287 and so on. It lies in 1st interval starting from 0. Binary equivalent of 1 is 0001, so value of WXYZ is 0001. So encoding of +280vp is P 1 ABC 100 WXYZ 0001

f) Multiplexing: It is defined as transmission of multiple messages simultaneously. There are following types of multiplexing techniques: FDM (Frequency Division Multiplexing) TDM (Time Division Multiplexing) g) Line coding: Line codec chips converts the encoded signal into HDB code which is compatible for transmit over channel.

Concept of FRAME: One full set of samples for all channels taken with the duration Ts is called a frame. The set of second samples of all channels is one frame. Where Ts is time slot. In PCM system there are 32 time slots and 30 channels. Ts in a 30 channel PCM system is 125 microseconds and the signaling information of all the
31

Transmission 2013

channels is transmitted through separate time slot. To maintain synchronization between transmit and receive ends, the synchronization data is transmitted through another time slot. Thus for 30 channel PCM system we have 32 time slots Thus the time available per channel would be 3.9 microseconds. Thus for 30 channel PCM system, Frame= 125 microseconds Time slot per channel=3.9 microseconds.

Structure of frame: A frame of 125 microseconds duration has 32 time slots. These slots are numbered Ts0 to Ts31. Information for providing synchronization between trans and receive ends is passed through a separate time slot. Usually the slot Ts0 carries the synchronization signals. This slot is also called frame alignment word (FAW). The signaling information is transmitted through slot Ts16. Ts1 to Ts15 are utilized for voltage signal of channels 1 to 15 respectively. Ts17 to Ts31 are utilized for voltage signal of channels 16 to 30 respectively.

Synchronization: The output of PCM terminal will be a continuous stream of bits. At the receiving end, the receiver has to receive the incoming stream of bits and discriminate between frames and separate channels from these. That is called frame alignment or synchronization and is achieved by inserting a fixed digital pattern called a frame alignment word (FAW) into the transmitted bit stream at regular intervals. The receiver looks for FAW and once it is detected, it knows that in next time slot, information for channel one will be there and so on.

32

Transmission 2013

The digits or bits of FAW occupy seven out of eight bits of Ts0 in the following pattern. Bits position of Ts0 B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 B6 B7 B8 FAW digit value X 0 0 1 1 0 1 1

The bit position B1 can be either 1 or 0. However when the PCM system is to be linked with an international network, the B1 position is fixed at 1. The FAW is transmitted in the Ts0 of every alternate frame. Frames which do not contain the FAW are used for transmitting supervisory and alarm signals. To distinguish the Ts0 frame carrying supervisory/alarm signals from those carrying the FAW, the B2 bit position of the former are fixed at T. the FAW and alarm signals are transmitted alternatively as shown in following table2: TABLE-2 Frame Remarks Numbers F0 F1 F2 F3 etc B1 X X X X B2 0 1 0 1 B3 0 Y 0 Y B4 1 Y 1 Y B5 1 Y 1 Y B6 0 1 0 1 B7 1 1 1 1 B8 1 1 1 1 FAW ALARM FAW ALARM

In frames 1, 3, 5 etc the bits B3, B4, B5 denote various types of alarms. For example, in B3 position, if Y=1, it indicates frame synchronization alarm. If Y=1 in B4, in indicates high error density alarm. When there is no alarm condition, bits B3, B4, B5 are set 0. An urgent alarm is indicated by transmitting all ones. The code word for an urgent alarm would be the form: X 111 1111.

Signaling in PCM system: In telephone network the signaling information is used for proper routing of a call between two subscribers, for providing certain status information like dial tone, busy tone, ring back, NU tone, metering pulses, trunk offering signals etc.
33

Transmission 2013

all these functions are grouped under general term signaling in PCM system. The signaling information can be transmitted in the form of DC pulses or multifrequency pulses. The signaling pulses retain their amplitude for a much longer period than the pulses carrying speech information. It means that signaling information is a slow varying signal in the time compared to speech signal which is fast changing in the time domain. Therefore a signaling channel can be digitized with less number of bits than a voice channel. In 30 channel PCM system, time slot Ts16 in each frame is allocated for carrying signaling information. The time slot 16 of each frame carries the signaling data corresponding to two VF channels only. Therefore to cater for 30 channels we must frames, each having 125 microseconds duration. For carrying synchronization data for all frames, one additional frame is used. Thus a group of 16 frames (each of 125 microseconds) is formed to make a multiframe. The duration of a multiframe is 2 milliseconds. The multiframe has 16 major time slots of 125 microsecond duration. Each of these (slots) frames has 32 time slots carrying. The encoded samples of all channels plus the signaling and synchronization data. Each sample has 8 bits of duration 0.400 microseconds (3.9/8=0.488) each. We have 32 time slots in a frame; each slot carries an 8 bit word. Total number of frames per second is 8000. The total number of bits per second is 256*8000=2048k/bits. Thus, a 30 channel PCM system has 2048 K bits.

Limitations of PCM: There are potential sources of impairment implicit in any PCM system: Choosing a discrete value that is near but not exactly at the analog signal level for each sample leads to quantization error. Between samples no measurement of the signal is made; the sampling theorem guarantees non-ambiguous representation and recovery of the signal only if it has no energy at frequency fs/2 or higher (one half the sampling frequency, known as the Nyquist frequency); higher frequencies will generally not be correctly represented or recovered.
34

Transmission 2013

As samples are dependent on time, an accurate clock is required for accurate reproduction. If either the encoding or decoding clock is not stable, its frequency drift will directly affect the output quality of the device.

PDH (Plesiochronous digital hierarchy):The plesiochronous digital hierarchy (PDH) is a technology used in telecommunications networks to transport large quantities of data over digital transport equipment such as fibre optic and microwave radio systems. The term plesiochronous is derived from Greek plsios, meaning near, and chronos, time, and refers to the fact that PDH networks run in a state where different parts of the network are nearly, but not quite perfectly, synchronised. PDH is typically being replaced by synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH) or synchronous optical networking (SONET) equipment in most telecommunications networks. PDH allows transmission of data streams that are nominally running at the same rate, but allowing some variation on the speed around a nominal rate. By analogy, any two watches are nominally running at the same rate, clocking up 60 seconds every minute. However, there is no link between watches to guarantee they run at exactly the same rate, and it is highly likely that one is running slightly faster than the other. Implementation:- The data rate is controlled by a clock in the equipment generating the data. The rate is allowed to vary by 50 ppm of 2.048 Mbit/s. This means that different data streams can be (probably are) running at slightly different rates to one another.

35

In order to move multiple data streams from one place to another, they are multiplexed in groups of four. This is done by taking 1 bit from stream #1, followed by 1 bit from stream #2, then #3, then #4. The transmitting multiplexer also adds additional bits in order to allow the far end receiving multiplexer to decode which bits belong to which data stream, and so correctly reconstitute the original data streams. These additional bits are called "justification" or "stuffing" bits. Because each of the four data streams is not necessarily running at the same rate, some compensation has to be introduced. The transmitting multiplexer combines the four data streams assuming that they are running at their maximum allowed rate. This means that occasionally, (unless the 2 Mbit/s really is running at the maximum rate) the multiplexer will look for the next bit but it will not have arrived. In this case, the multiplexer signals to the receiving multiplexer that a bit is "missing". This allows the receiving multiplexer to correctly reconstruct the original data for each of the four 2 Mbit/s data streams, and at the correct, different, plesiochronous rates. The resulting data stream from the above process runs at 8.448 Mbit/s (about 8 Mbit/s). Similar techniques are used to combine four 8 Mbit/s together, plus bit stuffing, giving 34 Mbit/s. Four 34 Mbit/s, gives 140. Four 140 gives 565. 565 Mbit/s is the rate typically used to transmit data over a fibre optic system for long distance transport. Recently,[when?] telecommunications companies have been replacing their PDH equipment with SDH equipment capable of much higher transmission rates.

SDH(Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH):36

Transmission 2013

Synchronous Optical Networking (SONET) and Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) are standardized protocols that transfer multiple digital bit streams over optical fiber using lasers or highly coherent light from lightemitting diodes (LEDs). At low transmission rates data can also be transferred via an electrical interface. The method was developed to replace the Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy (PDH) system for transporting large amounts of telephone calls and data traffic over the same fiber without synchronization problems. SONET and SDH, which are essentially the same, were originally designed to transport circuit mode communications (e.g., DS1, DS3) from a variety of different sources, but they were primarily designed to support real-time, uncompressed, circuit-switched voice encoded in PCM format. The primary difficulty in doing this prior to SONET/SDH was that the synchronization sources of these various circuits were different. This meant that each circuit was actually operating at a slightly different rate and with different phase. SONET/SDH allowed for the simultaneous transport of many different circuits of differing origin within a single framing protocol. SONET/SDH is not itself a communications protocol per se, but a transport protocol. Due to SONET/SDH's essential protocol neutrality and transport-oriented features, SONET/SDH was the obvious choice for transporting the fixed length Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) frames also known as cells. It quickly evolved mapping structures and concatenated payload containers to transport ATM connections. In other words, for ATM (and eventually other protocols such as Ethernet), the internal complex structure previously used to transport circuit-oriented connections was removed and replaced with a large and concatenated frame (such as STS-3c) into which ATM cells, IP packets, or Ethernet frames are placed.

Racks of Alcatel STM-16 SDH add-drop multiplexers Difference from PDH SDH differs from Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy (PDH) in that the exact rates that are used to transport the data on SONET/SDH are tightly synchronized across the entire network, using atomic clocks. This synchronization system allows entire inter-country networks to operate synchronously, greatly reducing the amount of buffering required between elements in the network. Both SONET and SDH can be used to encapsulate earlier digital transmission standards, such as the PDH standard, or they can be used to directly support either Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) or so-called packet over SONET/SDH (POS) networking. Therefore, it is inaccurate to think of SDH or SONET as communications protocols in and of themselves; they are generic, all38

purpose transport containers for moving both voice and data. The basic format of a SONET/SDH signal allows it to carry many different services in its virtual container (VC), because it is bandwidth-flexible.

Network Topologies:

Topology is the layout pattern of interconnections of the various elements (links, nodes, etc.) of a computer network. Network topologies may be physical or logical. Physical topology means the physical design of a network including the devices, location and cable installation. Logical topology refers to how data is actually transferred in a network as opposed to its physical design. STM-1 can work with any topology given below: Point to point topology. Star topology. Bus topology. Ring topology. But point to point and ring topology is commonly used in STM networks. Few of above topologies are explained below: Point to Point Topology:

Figure4.1: Point to point topology

59

Transmission 2013

Point to point topology is used between the two systems in which both are connected to each other. It is used at the edge of network.

Ring Topology:
Ring topology is used at the core of the communication network. In present days we are using this topology in our core networks. Figure 4.2 shows ring of three systems.

Figure4.2: Ring topology

Automatic Protection Switching (APS):

Modern society is virtually completely dependent on communications technology. Trying to imagine a modern office without any connection to telephone or data networks is like trying to work out how a laundry can operate without water. Network failures, whether due to human error or faulty technology, can be very expensive for users and network providers alike. As a result, the subject of so-called fall-back mechanisms is currently one of the most
60

Transmission 2013

talked about in the SDH world. A wide range of standardized mechanisms is incorporated into synchronous networks in order to compensate for failures in network elements. Two basic types of protection architecture are distinguished in APS. One is the linear protection mechanism used for point-to-point connections. The other basic form is the so-called ring protection mechanism which can take on many different forms. Both mechanisms use spare circuits or components to provide the back-up path. Switching is controlled by the overhead bytes K1 and K2. Linear Protection: The simplest form of back-up is the so-called 1 + 1 aps. Here, each working line is protected by one protection line. If a defect occurs, the protection agent in the network elements at both ends switches the circuit over to the protection line. The switchover is triggered by a defect such as los. Switching at the far end is initiated by the return of an acknowledgment in the backward channel. 1+1 architecture includes 100% redundancy, as there is a spare line for each working line. Economic considerations have led to the preferential use of 1: n architecture, particularly for long-distance paths. In this case, several working lines are protected by a single back-up line. If switching is necessary, the two ends of the affected path are switched over to the back-up line. The 1+1 and 1:n protection mechanisms are standardized in itu-t recommendation g.783. The reserve circuits can be used for lower-priority traffic, which is simply interrupted if the circuit is needed to replace a failed working line.

Figure 4.3: Linear protection 61

Transmission 2013

Ring Protection A ring is the simplest and most cost-effective way of linking a number of network elements. Various protection mechanisms are available for this type of network architecture, only some of which have been standardized in itu-t recommendation g.841. A basic distinction must be made between ring structures with unidirectional and bi-directional connections.

Unidirectional rings Figure shows the basic principle of aps for unidirectional rings. Traffic is transmitted simultaneously over both the working line and the protection line. If there is an interruption, the receiver switches to the protection line and immediately takes up the connection.

Two fiber unidirectional path switched ring

Bi-directional rings In this network structure, connections between network elements are bidirectional. This is indicated in figure 8 by the absence of arrows when compared with figure. The overall capacity of the network can be split up for
62

Transmission 2013

several paths each with one bi-directional working line, while for unidirectional rings, an entire virtual ring is required for each path.

In case of wireless technologies by changing modulation techniques can enhance the data rates and security. Upcoming technologies like 3G supports data rates in mega bits which are pretty much better. In switching the entire circuit switching network are to be modified to packet switched networks and will be IP based. In nutshell future technologies will be more efficient, precise and faster as compression to present technologies.
