Adaptation of OTU3/4 over Multichannel I/F• This mechanism is designed to allow the use of the optical modules being
developed for IEEE 40GBASE-R and 100GBASE-R signals for short-reach client-side OTU3 and OTU4 interfaces, respectively.
• OTU3 signals may be carried over parallel interfaces consisting of four lanes.
• OTU4 signals may be carried over parallel interfaces consisting of four or ten lanes, which are formed by bit multiplexing of 20 logical lanes.
• The OTU3 and OTU4 frames are inversely multiplexed over physical/logical lanes on a 16-byte boundary aligned with the OTUk frame – The OTUk frame is divided into 1020 groups of 16-bytes.

OTU3 16-byte Increment Frame Distribution
• Each 16-byte increment of an OTU3 frame is distributed, round robin, to each of the four physical lanes. On each OTU3 frame boundary, the lane assignments are rotated.
• OTU3 lane rotation and assignment is determined by the two LSB of the MFAS
• The pattern repeats every 64 bytes until the end of the OTU3 frame. The following frame will use a different lane assignment according to the MFAS.
• The two LSB of the MFAS will be the same in each FAS on a particular lane, which allows the lane to be identified.
• Since the MFAS cycles through 256 distinct values, the lanes can be deskewed and reassembled by the receiver as long as the total skew does not exceed 127 OTU3 frame periods (approximately 385s).

OTU4 16-byte Increment Distribution• Each 16-byte increment of a frame is distributed, round robin, to each of the 20 logical
lanes. On each frame boundary, the lane assignments are rotated.
• Since only 32 out of 48 bits of the FAS are checked for frame alignment, the 3rd OA2 byte position is assigned as a logical lane marker (LLM).
• Since 240 is the largest multiple of 20 that can be represented by 8 bits in order to maximize skew detection range the lane marker value will increment on successive frames from 0-239.
• In mapping from lanes back to the OTU4 frame, the 6th byte of each OTU4 frame which was borrowed for lane marking is restored to the value OA2.

The OTUk forward error correction (FEC) contains the Reed-Solomon
RS(255,239) FEC codes. If no FEC is used, fixed stuff bytes (all-0s pattern) are to be used.
For interworking of FEC with non-FEC equipment, the FEC supporting
equipment shall disable the FEC decoder and ignore the FEC area.
13Copyright © 2010 IP Light
FEC Sub-Rows
• The forward error correction for the OTU-k uses 16-byte interleaved codecs using a Reed-Solomon S(255,239) code. The RS(255,239) code operates on byte symbols.
• The FEC can correct up to 8 symbol errors in the FEC code word.
• The FEC can detect up to16 symbol errors in the FEC code word in error detection mode.

- Defined in ITU-T G.975.1 - Forward Error Correction for DWDM submarine systems.
- Defines super FEC codes that have higher correction ability than RS (255,239).
Correction Strength• BER characteristics
– BER characteristic for FEC: Decoder input signal BER / Corrected output signal BER.
• BER improvement by FEC indicates the FEC correction ability.
• Coding Gain– For randomly distributed errors within the encoded line signal, a FEC decoder reduces the line BER-
in (Bin) to a required reference BER (Bref) value within the payload signal.
• Coding gain accordingly is defined as Bin / Bref.
• Net Coding Gain (NCG)Code Rate: The code rate R is the ratio of bit rate without FEC to bit rate with FEC, R<1 .– NCG is characterized by both the code rate R and the maximum allowable BER-in (Bin) which can
be reduced to a reference BERout=Bref by applying the FEC algorithm.
• Q Limit– Q limit means the minimum required Q factor of the input signal which still allows the
receiver decision circuit to achieve a reference BER ( Bref ≈ BERout).
– The Q factor is the signal-to-noise ratio at the decision circuit in voltage or current
– Q = (µ1-µ0)/(σ1+ σ0)

– Low latency
• I.7 - Two orthogonally concatenated BCH codes– 3 options of the same scheme:
• Option 1: ITU-T G.709 compliant framing (7% overhead)
• Options 2, 3:High performance with 11% and 25% FEC overhead.
– Option 1: For 10 Gbps payloads the latency is ~100μs.

The OTUk frame alignment shall be found by searching for the
OA1, OA2 FAS bytes contained in the OTUk frame. The process
has two states, out-of-frame (OOF) and in-frame (IF).
In the OOF state, the framing pattern searched for shall be a 4-
byte subset of the OA1 and OA2 bytes. The IF shall be entered if
this subset is found and confirmed one frame period later.
In the IF state, the frame signal shall be continuously checked
with the presumed frame start position for correct alignment.
The framing pattern checked for shall be the OA1OA2OA2
pattern (bytes 3, 4 and 5 of the first row of the OTUk frame). The
OOF state shall be entered if this subset is not found at the
correct position in 5 consecutive frames.
The frame start shall be maintained during the OOF state.
Some OTUk and ODUk overhead signals span multiple OTUk/ODUk frames requiring multiframe alignment processing to be performed.
OTUk/ODUk overhead signals may use this central multiframe to lock their 2-frame, 32-frame, etc., multiframes to the principal frame.

OTN Basic Rates – OTU2• Following the same procedure as for OTU1
– OPU2 = 9.953 Gbps (OC192/STM64)– OTU2 = 9.953 x 255/238 ~ 10.664 Gbps
• But..we want to map 4 x ODU1 into the OPU2 payload– 4 x ODU1 = 4 x 2.498 = 9.9951 Gbps
• The rate difference would then be:– 9.953 – 9.995 ~ 41.82 Mbps ~ 4182 ppm– The Justification scheme cannot compensate for such a difference
• Add fixed stuff
– (3808-16)/16 = 237, 3808/16 = 238– OPU2 = 9.953 x 238/237 ~ 9.9952 Gbps– Rate difference: 9.9952 – 9.9951 ~ 177 Kbps = 18 ppm
• OTU2 = 9.953 x 238/237 x 239/238 x 255/239 = 9.953 x 255/237• OTU2 rate ~ 10.709 Gbps

ODUflex for GFP-F Mapped Packet Signals
• ODUflex(GFP) signals are generated using a local clock. This
clock may be the local HO ODUk (or OTUk) clock, or an
equipment internal clock of the signal over which the ODUflex
is carried through the equipment.
• Any bit rate is possible for an ODUflex(GFP) signal
– However it is suggested for maximum efficiency that the ODUflex
for GFP will occupy an integer number of time slot payload bytes
(in the initial container).
• The ODUflex for GFP-F has a bit rate tolerance of ±20 ppm.

Asynchronous Mapping Procedure - AMP
• Mapping of a CBR2G5, CBR10G or CBR40G signal (with up to ±45 ppm bit-rate tolerance) into an OPUk (k = 1,2,3) may be performed according to the asynchronous mapping procedure.
• The OPUk signal for the asynchronous mapping is created from a locally generated clock which is independent of the client signal.
• The client signal is mapped into the OPUk using a positive/negative/zero justification scheme.
• The maximum bit-rate tolerance between OPUk and the client signal clock, which can be accommodated by the asynchronous mapping scheme, is ±65 ppm.
– With a bit-rate tolerance of ±20 ppm for the OPUk clock, the client signal's bit-rate tolerance can be ±45 ppm.

Bit-Synchronous Mapping Procedure - BMP• Mapping of a CBR2G5, CBR10G or CBR40G signal (with up to ±20 ppm bit-rate tolerance)
into an OPUk (k = 1,2,3) may be performed according to the bit synchronous mapping
procedure
• Mapping of a CBR10G3 signal (with up to ±100 ppm bit-rate tolerance) into an OPUk (k =
2e) is performed using bit synchronous mapping procedure.
• The OPUk clock for the bit synchronous mapping is derived from the client signal.
• During signal fail conditions of the incoming client signal (e.g., in the case of loss of input
signal), the OPUk payload signal bit rate shall be within the specified limits and neither a
frequency nor frame phase discontinuity shall be introduced.
• The resynchronization on the incoming client signal shall be done without introducing a
frequency or frame phase discontinuity.
• The JC interpretation is the same for AMP and BMP

Generic Mapping Procedure (GMP)
• For any given CBR client signal the number of n-bit (e.g. n = 1/8, 1, 8) data entities that arrive during one server frame or server multi-frame period is defined by:– Cn = (fclient/n) x Tserver
• As only an integer number of n-bit data entities can be transported per server frame or multi-frame, the integer value Cn(t) of Cn has to be used.
• Since it is required that no client information be lost, the rounding process to the integer value has to take care of the truncated part, e.g. a Cn with a value of 10.25 has to be represented by the integer sequence 10,10,10,11.
– Cn(t)= INT [(fclient/n) x Tserver]
– FLOOR [(fclient/n) x Tserver] ≤ Cn(t) ≤ 1 + FLOOR [(fclient/n) x Tserver]
• As the client data has to fit into the payload area of the server signal, the maximum value of Cn and as such the maximum client bit rate is limited by the size of the server payload area.
48Copyright © 2010 IP Light
GMP Data Distribution
• Cn(t) client data entities are mapped into the payload area of the
server frame or multi-frame using a sigma/delta data/stuff mapping
distribution.
• Payload field j (j = 1 .. Pserver) carries:– Client data (D) - if (j x Cn(t)) mod Pserver < Cn(t)
– Stuff (S) - if (j x Cn(t)) mod Pserver ≥ Cn(t).
• As the same start value and Cn(t) are used at the mapper and
demapper the same results are obtained and interworking is
achieved.

GMP in OTN• Asynchronous mappings in OTN have a default 8-bit timing
granularity. Such 8-bit timing granularity is supported in GMP by means of a Cn with n=8 (C8).
• The jitter/wander requirements for some of the OTN client signals are such that for those signals an 8-bit timing granularity may not be sufficient. For such case, a 1-bit timing granularity is supported in GMP by means of Cn with n=1 (C1).
• The insertion of client data into the payload area of the OPUk frame at the mapper is performed in M-byte (or m-bit, m = 8 x M) data entities, denoted as Cm(t).
• The remaining CnD(t) data entities are signaled in the Justification Overhead as additional timing/phase information.– Actually ΣCnD(t) (the cumulative value of CnD(t) ) is signaled.
50Copyright © 2010 IP Light
GMP Overhead• The justification overhead (JOH) for Generic Mapping Procedure consists of
two groups of 3 bytes of Justification Control; the general (JC1, JC2, JC3) and
the client/LO ODU specific (JC4, JC5, JC6).

GBE Transcoding• GBE rate (125000 Kbps) > OPU0 rate (1239 Kbps)
• The GBE signal (8B/10B coded, nominal bit rate of 125000 Kbps and a bit rate
tolerance up to ±100ppm) has to be synchronously mapped into a 75-octet
GFP-T frame stream with a bit rate of 15/16 x 1250000 Kbps ±100ppm
(approximately 1171875 Kbps ±100ppm).
• This process is referred to as “timing transparent transcoding (TTT)”.
• The 15/16 x 1250000 Kbps ±100 ppm signal is then mapped into an OPU0 by
means of the generic mapping procedure

Frame Mapped Ethernet
• IPGs are deleted as the Ethernet MAC frame is extracted from the client bit-
stream. The extracted (decoded) Ethernet MAC frame is then forwarded to the
GFP source adaptation process for subsequent encapsulation into a GFP frame.
• IPGs are restored after the Ethernet MAC frame is extracted from the GFP frame
by the GFP termination element.

Mapping a 10GFC Signal into OPU2e
• The nominal line rate for 10GFC is 10518750 Kbps ±100ppm, and
must therefore be compressed to a suitable rate to fit into an OPU2e.– 10GFC rate is 2% higher than 10GBE rate
• The adaptation process performs a 50/51 rate compression, so the
resulting GFP stream has a signal bit rate of 50/51 x 10518750 Kbps
±100 ppm (i.e. 10312500 Kbps ±100ppm).

IEEE 40GBASE-R, 100GBASE-R Interfaces
• IEEE 40GBASE-R and 100GBASE-R interfaces being specified
by the IEEE P802.3ba task force will be parallel interfaces
intended for short-reach (up to 40km) interconnections.
– In the future they may be serial interfaces.
• 40GBASE-R signals comprise 4 PCS lanes and 100GBASE-R
signals comprise 20 PCS lanes.
– PCS lanes can be bit-multiplexed to match physical lanes.
• PCS lanes are 64B/66B encoded data with a PCS Lane
Alignment Marker inserted every 16384 66-bit blocks.
– The Lane Alignment Marker is a special format 66B codeword.
67Copyright © 2010 IP Light
Client Frame Recovery• Dis-interleaving is required when the number of PCS and physical lanes does
not match.
– Recover 64B/66B block lock per the state diagram in IEEE 802.3ba
– Recover Lane Alignment marker framing on each PCS lane per IEEE 802.3ba.
– Reorder and deskew the PCS lanes into a serialized stream of 66B blocks.

The fourth octet following the sync header is a BIP-8 calculated over the data from one alignment marker to the next. The eighth octet is the complement of this BIP-8 value to maintain DC balance. Note that these BIP-8 values are not manipulated by the mapping or demapping procedure, but simply skipped in the process of recognizing lane alignment markers and copied intact as they are used for monitoring the error ratio of the Ethernet link between Ethernet PCS sublayers.

Mapping 40GBASE-R into OPU3• OPU3 payload rate ~ 40 150 519.322 Kbps
• 40GBASE-R rate = 40 Gbps x 66/64 x 16384/16383 = 41 252 517.853 Kbps
• To reduce the 40GBASE-R rate PCS lane alignment markers are encoded together with 66B control blocks into the uppermost rows of the 513B code blocks.
– Similar to the one described for 10GFC
• At the decoder, a PCS lane alignment marker will be generated in the position indicated by the POS field among any 66B all-data blocks contained in this 513B block
• The sync header of "10" is generated followed by the received M0, M1 and M2
bytes, the egress BIP3 byte, the bytes M4, M5 and M6 which are the bit-wise inverted M0, M1 and M2 bytes received at the decoder, and the egress BIP7 byte which is the bit-wise inverted egress BIP3 byte.

1027B Block Code• We need a method to locate the start of 513B blocks for parallel 40GBASE-R
signals transcoded and mapped into OPU3 without GFP framing.
• A mechanism is needed to protect the flag bit, whose corruption could cause
data to be interpreted as control and vice-versa.

Mapping 100GBASE-R into OPU4
• 40GBASE-R rate after transcoding:– 40 Gbps x 66/64 x 16384/16383 x 513/528 x 1027/1026 = 40 119 636.208
Kbps
– OPU3 payload rate ~ 40 150 519.322 Kbps
– 40GBASE-R can be mapped into the OPU3 payload after transcoding
• 100GBASE-R rate:– 100Gbps x 66/64 x 16384/16383 = 103 131 294.635 Kbps
– OPU4 payload rate ~ 104 355 975.330 Kbps
• Since the OPU4 is large enough for the serialized 66B block stream for 100GBASE-R client signals, the recovered client frames are adapted directly.
71Copyright © 2010 IP Light
OTN Multiplexing• The ODUj into HO OPUk multiplexing is performed in two steps:
– Asynchronous mapping of ODUj into Optical channel Data Tributary Unit (ODTU) using either AMP or GMP
– Byte-synchronous mapping of ODTU into one or more HO OPUk Tributary Slots.
• OPUk Tributary Slot definition– The OPUk is divided in a number of Tributary Slots (TS) and these Tributary Slots are
interleaved within the OPUk.
• A Tributary Slot includes a part of the OPUk OH area and a part of the OPUk payload area.
– The bytes of the ODUj frame are mapped into the ODTU payload area and the ODTU bytes are mapped into the OPUk Tributary Slot or Slots.
– The bytes of the ODTU Justification Overhead are mapped into the OPUk OH area.
• There are two types of Tributary Slots:– Tributary Slot with a bandwidth of approximately 2.5 Gbps; an OPUk is divided in n
Tributary Slots, numbered 1 to n
– Tributary Slot with a bandwidth of approximately 1.25 Gbps; an OPUk is divided in 2n Tributary Slots, numbered 1 to 2n.

ODTU Definition
• The Optical channel Data Tributary Unit (ODTU) carries a
justified ODU signal.
• There are two types of ODTUs:
– ODTUjk in which an ODUj signal is mapped via AMP
– ODTUk.ts signal is mapped via GMP

ODUj into OPUk mapping types
77Copyright © 2010 IP Light
Mapping ODUj into ODTUjk• The mapping of ODUj signals (with up to ±20 ppm bit-rate tolerance)
into the ODTUjk signal is performed as an asynchronous mapping.
• The maximum bit-rate tolerance between OPUk and the ODUj signal
clock, which can be accommodated by this mapping scheme, is: – -130 to +65 ppm (ODU0 into OPU1)
– -113 to +83 ppm (ODU1 into OPU2)
– -96 to +101 ppm (ODU1 into OPU3)
– -95 to +101 ppm (ODU2 into OPU3)
• The ODUj signal is extended with Frame Alignment Overhead and an
all-0s pattern in the OTUj Overhead field
FA overhead All zeros
OPUj area 4x3810 bytesODUj overhead area
78Copyright © 2010 IP Light
ODUj Adaptation to ODUk Clock
• The extended ODUj signal is adapted to the locally generated ODUk
clock by means of an asynchronous mapping with –1/0/+1/+2
justification scheme.
• An extended ODUj byte is mapped into an ODTUjk byte.

NJO PJO1 PJO2 Interpretation

01 data data data Negative justification (-1)
10 justification justification justification Double positive justification (+2)
11 justification justification data Positive justification (+1)
Note that this code is not used for the case of ODU0 into OPU1
79Copyright © 2010 IP Light
Mapping of ODUj into ODTUk.ts• The mapping of ODUj (j = 0, 1, 2, 2e, 3, flex) signals (with up to ±100
ppm bit-rate tolerance) into the ODTUk.ts (k = 2,3,4; ts = M) signal is performed by means of GMP
• The OPUk and therefore the ODTUk.ts (k = 2,3,4) signals are created from a locally generated clock which is independent of the ODUj client signal.
• The ODUj signal is extended with Frame Alignment Overhead and an all-0s pattern in the OTUj Overhead field.
• The value of M is the number of Tributary Slots occupied by the ODUj; ODTUk.ts = ODTUk.M.
• A group of „M‟ successive extended ODUj bytes is mapped into a group of „M‟ successive ODTUk.M bytes.
80Copyright © 2010 IP Light
Mapping ODUj into ODTU2.M• Groups of M successive bytes of the extended ODUj (j = 0, flex) signal are
mapped into a group of M successive bytes of the ODTU2.M payload area
under control of the GMP data/stuff control mechanism.
• Each group of M bytes in the ODTU2.M payload area may either carry M ODU
bytes, or carry M stuff bytes. The value of the stuff bytes is set to all-0‟s.

Alarms Terminology• Anomaly :
– The smallest discrepancy which can be observed between the actual and desired characteristics of an item.
– The occurrence of a single anomaly does not constitute an interruption in the ability to perform a required function.
– Anomalies are used as the input for the Performance Monitoring (PM) process and for the detection of defects
• Defect:– The density of anomalies has reached a level where the ability to perform a required
function has been interrupted.
– Defects are used as input for PM, the control of consequent actions, and the determination of fault cause.
• Fault Cause– A single disturbance or fault may lead to the detection of multiple defects.
– A fault cause is the result of a correlation process which is intended to identify the defect that is representative of the disturbance or fault that is causing the problem.
• Failure:– The fault cause persisted long enough to consider the ability of an item to perform a
required function to be terminated.
– The item may be considered as failed; a fault has now been detected.

fault causes that are
reported by management
A fault may cause multiple defect detectors to be
activated. To determine, from the activated defects,
which fault is present, the activated defects are
correlated to obtain the fault cause.

Performance Monitoring• Acute fault conditions will be detected by alarm surveillance methods. Very low
rate, or intermittent, error conditions in multiple equipment units may interact resulting in poor service quality and may not be detected by alarm surveillance.
• Performance Monitoring is designed to measure the overall quality, using monitored parameters in order to detect such degradation. – It may also be designed to detect characteristic patterns of impairment before signal
quality has dropped below an acceptable level.
• Performance Monitoring Functions are responsible for the summation of 1-second event counts during 15-minute and 24-hour intervals. – The 15-minute intervals are aligned with the quarter of an hour, i.e. 00:00, 15:00, 30:00 and
45:00.
– The 24-hour interval starts by default at midnight (00:00:00).
• Within performance monitoring, the concepts of "near-end" and "far-end" are used to refer to performance monitoring information associated with the two directions of transport of a bidirectional trail.
• For a bidirectional trail from A to Z: – At node A, the near-end information represents the performance of the unidirectional trail
from Z to A, while the far-end information represents the performance of the unidirectional trail from A to Z

Other Performance Monitoring Parameters• FEC corrected errors (FECcorrErr)
– The number of bits corrected by the FEC are counted over one second and reported at the end of the second.
– During TSF, dAIS, dLOF and dLOM, no corrected bits are counted
– Usually provided as two counters: Corrected Ones, Corrected Zeros
• May help in “fine tuning” 1/0 decision threshold
– A FEC uncorrected errors may also be provided (not required by the standard)
• Pointer Justification Events (PJE)– In order to locate the source that causes the generation of jitter and
wander, e.g., due to a wrongly selected timing reference source, it is required to measure these error conditions.
– An alternative approach to direct measurement, is to measure the positive and negative pointer justification events (PJEs). These events may be an indication of a wrongly applied timing source.
– The PJEs are summed over 24-hour intervals. The analysis of these reports may be an aid to locate the error source.
