Abstract

See full text

A SONET/SDH frame synchronization method uses one framing pattern to find the frame and a second framing pattern to monitor the frame after it is acquired. The first framing pattern uses twenty-four bits selected from the A1 and A2 bytes. After acquisition, the second framing, pattern uses only twelve bits, e.g. the last four bits of the last A1 byte and all of the first A2 byte. The framing pattern comparisons are made with a window of N+1 bytes or 2N bytes. The method of the invention meets the requirements of Telcordia GR-253 and eliminates aliasing in the last H2 bytes. The method can also be applied to enhanced framing in STS-192 and STS-768. An exemplary implementation of the method is realized in a state machine.
