Need for EOS
Ethernet over SDH (EoS) refers to a set of protocols which allow Ethernet traffic to be
carried over SDH networks in an efficient and flexible way.
It was developed primarily to provide a simple, flexible and cost-effective solution to
customers offering Ethernet based services.
An EoS transport solution fundamentally addresses the following key issues

Auto Negotiation (AN), to negotiate and select a common speed and mode of communication
between two link partners.
Generic Framing Procedure (GFP), Framing protocol to encapsulate Ethernet frames to

generate an SDH payload.
Virtual Concatenation (VCAT), Bandwidth provisioning scheme. Bandwidth mapping of the

SDH payload to SDH channels, which are either high-order or low-order virtual containers
(VCs)
Link Capacity Adjustment Scheme (LCAS), a scheme for hitless adjustment (addition &
deletion) of link capacity(Bandwidth)
Link Integrity (LI), for point to point communication, alive feature checks end to end (client to
client) integrity of the link and if there is a breach of integrity anywhere in the link, then
forcefully the health client side(s) are made down.
Flow Control, Rate shaping mechanism to avoid packet drops.

GFP Operation Modes
GFP-F (Framed Mapped):

 For packet oriented clients, e.g. Ethernet
00
 One Client Packet = packed in one GFP frame (1:1)
 Minimal overhead
GFP-T (Transparent Mapped):

 Client characters are directly mapped in GFP-T
frames e.g. Fibre Channel
 Fixed length GFP frames
 Minimal Latency
GFP IDLE Frame:
 Rate Adaptation (“stuffing”)
GFP Management Frame:

 under study
WDM
The ability to use different wavelengths in a single fiber, to combine

and to split them.
29
COMMERCIAL–IN-CONFIDENCE
DWDM
WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing), it uses different wavelengths on the same

fibre & is totally protocol independent (SDH, ATM, Ethernet…)
It is known as Dense Wavelength Division Multiplex (DWDM) when the wavelengths

are close (a few nm.)
For a DWDM Transmission system, 40/80 or at present 160 or more wavelengths in
Optical C-Band (1530nm to 1565nm wavelength spectrum) can be carried on one
fibre.
30
OTN ( Optical Trasport Network)
OTN is composed of set of Optical network Elements connected by optical fiber links, able to provide functionality of
transport, multiplexing, routing, management, supervision and survivability of clients signals.
• One important feature of OTN is that the transmission setting of any digital customer signal is independent of
specific feature of the customer, that is independence of customer.
• Enhanced OAM & networking functionality for all services, Dynamically electrical/optical layer groomiing

Optical Modulation :-
• ASK- Amplitude Shift Keying

• FSK- Frequency Shift Keying PSK
• PSK- Phase Shift Keying
• BPSK- Binary PSK
• QPSK- Quadrature PSK BPSK QPSK
Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK) is a two phase modulation scheme, where the 0’s and 1’s in a binary message
are represented by two different phase states in the carrier signal: θ=0∘θ=0∘for binary 1 and θ=180∘θ=180∘ for
binary 0.
33
Optical Modulation:-Cont..
The Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) is a variation of BPSK, and it is also a Double Side Band Suppressed
Carrier (DSBSC) modulation scheme, which sends two bits of digital information at a time, called as bigits.
More Advanced Techniques:-

• DP-QPSK ( Transmitting 2 Waves ( Horizontal & Vertical)
34
Optical Modulation:-Cont..
• QAM- Quadrature Amplitude Modulation( 8QAM, 16 QAM,32QAM, and so on):-It includes both Phase &
Amplitude
35
Flex Grid Vs. Fixed Grid
Fixed Grid Technology:- 196.1–191.7 = 4.4 THz of Spectrum is Available in C Band ( Total- 4.8 THz is available
with Extended C Band)
Means, each channels is of 50 GHz, so 4.4 THz / 50 GHz = 88. So, in Total we can have 88 Channels, each of 50
GHz Spectrum range.
Flex Grid Technology:- Flex Grid means that the GRID spacing can be flexible, i.e. not limited to 50GHz, but
despite this, guard band is necessary between each channel to avoid any interference or cross talk.

provides increased reach, Polarization Mode dispersion ( PMD) robustness, higher shelf
density, lower latency and collarless networking support.
• WL3/WL3e FLEX2 :- Adds provisionable modulation format support allowing DP-QPSK
and DP-BPSK mode of operation.
• Flex3 WL3e OCLD:- Adds extra provisionable modulation format support allowing DP-
QPSK and DP-BPSK and DP-16QAM mode of operation. The Flex3 OCLD is able to
provide a 200G line interface and together with ciena100G client cards.
• Flex3 WL3e encryption OCLD :- supports 100G and 200G encryption/decryption at the
ODU4 payload level with E2E encryption authentication/key exchange. Modulation rates
supports are 100G for QPSK and 200G for 16QAM.
• Flex4 WL3e OCLD :- same Flex3 WL3e OCLD and extra supports DP-8QAM modulation.
