Introduction
An SDH network consists of Network

Elements (NE) interconnected with optical fiber. The geometrical layout of NEs and transmission lines is called the network topology.
The efficiency, reliability and the cost

performance of the network highly depend on its topology.

Network Topology Structures


Classification of Topology Structures
Chain Network Star Network Tree Network Ring Network Mesh Network

Note: Chain network, ring network and mesh network


are normally used.

Chain Network
In chain network, all nodes are connected one after another on a line with both ends open.

Chain network is used when the networks nodes are arranged in a long line, e. g. along railway lines, highways, power supply lines, etc.

Star Network
In star network there is a central node to which the other nodes are directly connected. There are no direct links between other nodes.

B A C

D
Star network is mainly used in access networks or rural telephone networks in which nodes are scattered here and there and the services are not important.
HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. All rights reserved Page 7

Tree Network
A tree network can be considered as a combination of the chain and the star topologies.

Tree network is suitable for broadcast services.


HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. All rights reserved Page 8

Ring Network
Ring network is such structure in which all nodes are connected one after another to form a circle.

Ring network is widely used in SDH networking due to its high survivability.
HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. All rights reserved Page 9

Mesh Network
Mesh network is such a structure in which many nodes are interconnected together via direct links.

Mesh network is suitable for the regions with large amount of traffic and for high hierarchy communication networks.
HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. All rights reserved Page 10

Sub-Network
In backbone networks or large region networks, there are a large number of NEs and links. In order to simplify the network management, a large network can be divided into several sub-networks according to the administrative regions.

A sub-network functions as a container. It can include NEs, links and even the lower level sub-networks.

Summary

There are four NE types for SDH network elements: TM, ADM, MADM and REG.

TM is used at the end stations. ADM is used at the intermediate stations. MADM is a multi-ADM NE, functioning as core

unit for constructing various networks.

What is a Survivable Network?


A network that is capable of restoring services within a very

short period and without any human intervention in the event of a failure is called a survivable network.
Requirements for survivability of network includes

Standby routes. Powerful cross-connect capability. Intelligence of Nodes.

Classification of Protection Mechanism


Protection Mechanism of survivable network can be classified as follows:

1+1 Linear MSP System


In 1+1 linear MSP system, protection is realized via the concurrent sending and selective receiving function. Each side sends the service on both working and protection channels, but receives only from working channel. When the working channel fails, both sides switch to receive from the protection channel.

Protection switching criteria are SF and SD:

SF (Signal Fail): R_LOS, R_LOF, MS_AIS, B2_EXC. SD (Signal Degrade): B2_SD.


APS Necessity:

Except for unidirectional switching in non-revertible mode 1+1 MSP system, the others require the APS protocol.
Network Capacity:

Summary
A survivable network is capable of restoring services within a very short

time and without any human intervention in the event of a failure.


Linear protection networks can be classified into 1+1 linear MSP system

and 1:N linear MSP system.


Ring protection networks can be classified into Path Protection (PP) ring,

Multiplex Section Protection (MSP) ring, and Sub-Network Protection (SNCP).
