PNMS. In such cases the number of the required
Router serial ports increases in accordance with
the number of CPMs.
The concept of reducing the number CPMs is by
locating the CMP function at the PNMS site.

Concept of NMS for PASOLINK Concept of NMS for PASOLINK
THE SYSTEM IS BASED ON A PNMS COMPUTER AND A NUMBER OF REMOTE DATA PROCESSING NODES
CALLED PM CARDS. IT SUPERVISES AND CONTROLS PASOLINK TRANSMISSION EQUIPMENT.
PNMS PROVIDES CONTINUOUS MONITORING OF ALL PASOLINKs IN THE RADIO NETWORK.
EACH PASOLINK IDU IS FITTED WITH A PMC
LOADED WITH A CONFIGURATION
ACCORDING TO ITS ROLE IN THE
NETWORK. THE PASOLINK IDU THAT IS
CONNECTED DIRECTLY TO THE PNMS
WORKSTATION IS LOADED WITH CENTRAL
PMC CONFIGURATION AND IS CALLED
CPMC. ALL THE COMMUNICATIONS TO AND
FROM THE SUBORDINATE PMCs
CONNECTED TO THE CPMC CHAIN GOES
THROUGH THE CPMC. THE CPMC THEN
PASSES THIS INFORMATION TO THE PNMS.
THE CPMC ACTS AS A CONCENTRATOR
FOR THE DATA FROM THE NEs UNDER IT

Anomalies
Anomalies
LOS - Loss of Signal
LOS is raised when the synchronous signal (STM-N) level drops below the threshold at
which a BER of 1 in 10
3
is predicted. It could be due to a cut cable, excessive attenuation
of the signal, or equipment fault. The LOS state will clear when two consecutive framing
patterns are received and no new LOS condition is detected.
OOF - Out of Frame Alignment
OOF state occurs when several consecutive SDH frames are received with invalid
(errored) framing patterns (A1 and A2 bytes). The maximum time to detect OOF is
625 microseconds. OOF state clears within 250 microseconds when two consecutive
SDH frames are received with valid framing patterns.
LOF - Loss of Frame Alignment
LOF state occurs when the OOF state exists for a specified time in microseconds. The
LOF state clears when Alignment an in-frame condition exists continuously for a
specified time in microseconds. The time for detection and clearance is normally 3
milliseconds.
AIS Alarm Indication
AIS is an all-ONES characteristic or adapted information signal. Its generated to replace
the normal traffic signal when it contains a defect condition (High BER) in order to
prevent consequential downstream failures being declared or alarms being raised.

Availability Parameters Availability Parameters
Availability ratio, AR
Availability ratio, AR, is defined as the proportion of time that a path element (PE) is in the
available state during an observation period. AR is calculated by dividing the total available
time during the observation period by the duration of the observation period.
Unavailability ratio, UR
The converse of AR, the unavailability ratio, UR, is defined as the proportion of time that a
path element (PE) is in the unavailable state during an observation period. UR is calculated
by dividing the total unavailable time during the observation period by the duration of the
observation period.
Mean time between digital path outages, Mo
The mean time between digital path outages, Mo, for a digital path portion is the average
duration of any continuous interval during which the portion is available.
Outage intensity, OI
The Outage Intensity, OI, is the reciprocal of Mo and refers to the number of unavailability
events per year.

The link can be classified as an inland link when any of the following conditions
are satisfied:
a. The entire path profile is above 100 m altitude (above mean sea level).
b. The entire path profile is beyond 50 km from the coastline.
c. For a link entirely within 50 km from the coastline, part or all of the path profile
is below 100 m but there is an area of land between this part of the link and the
coastline that is higher than 100 m.

1. Obtain the rain rate (in mm/h) exceeded for 0.01% of the time
(integration time = 1 min), R
0.01
. Where local rain rate data is unavailable,
this can be estimated from the information given in Annex 2 of ITU-R
P.837-2 or in ITU-R Rep. 563.
2. Compute the specific rain attenuation,
R
(dB/km), using the following
equation:
