Breitband-Vermittlungsnetz

摘要

Since a transmission route is set in accordance with the number of relaying broad band switching nodes present between two terminating nodes of a plurality of broad band switching nodes, a through-put characteristic, an affecting degree due to occurrence of a defect, the traffic of the entire network is distributed. In addition, when the system is started up, transmission routes with a minimum band width necessary for routing control have been set in all the broad band switching nodes. Whenever a call takes place, a transmission route is set and the band width is variably set by using an intelligent inference mechanism. Moreover, an intelligent distributed control for distributing such an intelligent inference mechanism in the broad band switching nodes is used. Thus, the load of processing a call can be decreased, while the reliability of the network and the improvement of the operating efficiency can be achieved. Furthermore, since the private branch system interface uses a frame which consists of a control window area for controlling its transmission and a cell multiplexing area for multiplexingly transmitting cells, bidirectional transmission between the broad band switching node and a plurality of terminal equipments can be achieved with a single extension transmission line. In addition, since a frame construction which satisfies the ATM method is used, different information transmission speeds can be flexibly selected. Thus, high through-put characteristic and statistic multiplexing effect intrinsic to the ATM method can be accomplished even in the extension line interface.
