eFEC, Raman, multi-stage EDFAs, pre-emphasis, and
spectrum flattening allow CoreStream to handle span
designs from 1600 - 3200km

Development Issues
What is the 40G line rate?
40G POS client only requires standard OTU3 (43.018G line rate)
10G multiplexing creates possibly many different 40G line rates
depending on solution (as high as 45.270G)
Non-standard, overrate, muxing will result in proprietary solutions,
interop problems, and ASIC availability issues
Due to limited optical reach an OTU3 to OTU3 regenerator will
probably be required
Ideally about 1600km reach w/o Raman.
New transceivers utilizing 50 / 100GHz DPSK modulation
Overrate solutions increase line rate and reduce reach

How is OTN Deployed?
OTN is the common optical backbone network of the future.
OTN can provide transparent SONET/SDH services to end users who require
section overhead bytes like DCC.
OTN maps all services into a common set of wavelengths – simplifying
everything from monitoring and deployment to sparing and capacity
management.

OTN and the OSI Stack
The diagram on this page shows the OSI stack modified to show
the OTN layers
The Service layer represents the end user service, it can be GbE,
SONET, SDH, FC, or any other protocol.
Service
GFP
For asynchronous services such as ESCON, GbE or FC the
service is passed through a GFP mapper
OPVC
The OPVC or Optical channel Payload Virtual Container handles
mapping the service into a uniform format. The OPVC is the only
layer that needs to change to support a new service type.
OPTU
The OPTU or Optical channel Payload Tributary Unit maps the
output of the OPVC into a timeslot and performs timing
adaptations to unify the clocking.
OPU
The OPU or Optical channel Payload Unit contains all of the
timeslots in the OTN frame.
ODU
The ODU or Optical channel Data Unit provides the path-level
transport functions of the OPU.
OTU
The OTU or Optical Transport Unit provides the section-level
overhead for the ODU and provides the GCC0 bytes.
Physical
The Physical layer maps the OTU into a wavelength or WDM
muxing system.

OTN revealed
OTN Framing is very similar to SONET and SDH framing. It can be
represented by a table 4080 bytes long and 4 bytes high.

Carrier networks are multi-domain & multi-technology
A single control plane does not scale or fit all needs
Individual domains interoperate through the E-NNI or Exterior Network-Network
Interface
This preserves domain characteristics and scalability

30
Extending SONET/SDH to support new Broadband Optical Services
Virtual Concatenation
“Right-sizes” the provisioned SONET path for the client signal
Enables mapping into an arbitrary number of standard STS-1s
Transport capacity decoupled from service bandwidth – less stranded bandwidth
STS signals can be diversely routed through SONET network
Recombined to contiguous payloads at end point of transmission
Need to handle differential delays at egress due to diverse routing
Do this using internal buffers – 5us/km of fibre
Inter-works with all existing SONET/SDH equipment
Only source & sink terminals need to support VCAT

SONET
• ESCON (160M)  STS-1-4v
• Fibre Channel (1G)  STS-3c-6v
• Gigabit Ethernet  STS-3c-nv
Provides superior link utilization for both voice and 31data services
VCAT – Soft Protection
New soft protection schemes possible
Improves efficiency beyond classic SONET protection strategies
Works best with packet services utilising CoS priority support
Soft protection via path diversity
100% transport capacity utilised under normal conditions (~99.99% availability)
On a failure, percentage of transport capacity is lost (due to impacted STSs)
Client signal automatically re-mapped into the remaining STSs
LCAS enables the VCAT link to be hitlessly repaired
VCAT Link
32
Link Capacity Adjustment Scheme (LCAS)
Executive Summary
An approved mechanism (ITU G.7042.2001) for dynamically adjusting the size of a Virtually
Concatenated channel
Allows services more flexibility for handling dynamic bandwidth demands
Relies on the NMS/EMS or O-UNI to provision the bandwidth change
Allows channel size adjustment to be hitless
Provides mechanism for adjustment of bandwidth during STS-1 failure
LCAS uses bit-oriented protocol encapsulated in control packets carried in SONET H4 Payload
