Method and apparatus for reducing jitter or wander on internetworking between ATM network and PDH network

摘要

A method and apparatus for reducing jitter and wander on the internetworking between ATM network and PDH network is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a timing recovery block which receives a system clock of ATM network and divides the system clock and provides a reference clock and a first transmission clock in order to recover a synchronized clock in PDH network by using a synchronized clock information of a PDH user in an ATM cell stream transmitted from the ATM network; a clock smoother which receives the first transmission clock and reduces jitter or wander and outputs a second transmission clock; an AAL1-SAR device which segments ATM cells of ATM network into PDH data stream and transmits the same to PDH network or reassembles the PDH data stream transmitted from PDH network to ATM network into an ATM cell stream, and receives a reference clock from the timing recovery block and provides 4 bit SRTS (Synchronous Residual Timing Stamp) code related to synchronized clock information of PDH user to the timing recovery block and according to the first transmission clock outputs the PDH data stream including jitter and wander; a jitter absorber which receives the PDH data stream including jitter or wander, and reduces the jitter or wander generated in the AAL1-SAR and outputs PDH data stream according to the second transmission clock; and a framer which receives the second transmission clock and the PDH data stream in which jitter or wander is reduced, and segments PDH data stream transmitted from PDH network into each time slot or reassembles the time slots into PDH data stream.
