OTN (Optical Transport Network) :-

An Optical Transport Network

(OTN) is composed of a set of Optical Network Elements connected by optical fiber
links, able to provide functionality of transport, multiplexing, routing, management,
supervision and survivability of client signals.

Benefits over SDH and SONET :

Ultra capacity with high accuracy, Terabit/second per fibre via DWDM lines
Service transparency for client signals
Asynchronous mapping, powerful FEC function, predigest network design and reduce the
cost

Compared with traditional WDM :

Enhanced OAM & networking functionality for all services

Dynamically electrical/optical layer grooming

OTN Network layers & interface structure:

The optical transport module-n (OTM-n) is the information structure used to support OTN
interfaces.

 As shown in the figure above, the OTM-n.m (n 1) is composed of OTSn, OMSn, OCh,
OTUk/OTUkV, and ODUk.
n indicates the number of the maximum wavelength supported by the interface in case of
the minimum bit rate supported by the wavelength. When n is 0, it indicates one wavelength.
m indicates the bit rate or bit rate set supported by the interface.
r indicates the reduced function. OTM-0.m need not label r, because one wavelength
indicates the reduced function.
OTM-nr.m and OTM-0.m is composed of OPSn, OChr, OTUk/OTUkV, and ODUk.
The information structure that supports the OTN interface is called OTM-n, that is, the
optical transport module-n. The OTM-n includes two structures: OTM with full
functionality OTM-n.m, OTM with reduced functionality OTM-0.m and OTM-nr.m.

OPUk: Optical channel Payload Unit-k

ODUk: Optical channel Data Unit-k
OTUk: completely standardized Optical channel Transport Unit-k
OTUkV: functionally standardized Optical channel Transport Unit-k
OCh: Optical Channel with full functionality
OChr: Optical Channel with reduced functionality

n represents the maximum number of wavelengths that can be supported at the lowest bit
rate supported on the wavelength, m=1,2,3,12,23,123
OTS_OH, OMS_OH, OCh_OH and COMMS OH information fields are contained within
the OOS
OSCOptical Supervisory Channel used to transmit OOS
The figure on shows the composition of the OTM-n.m signals of the OTM interface with
complete function. The OTM-n.m is composed of up to n multiplexing wavelengths and
OTM overhead signals that support the non-associated overhead, m can be 1, 2, 3, 12, 23,
or 123.m=1 indicates the signals are OTU1/OTU1V. m=2: indicate the signals are
OTU2/OTU2V. m=3 indicates the signals are OTU3/OTU3V. m=12 indicates partial
signals are OTU1/OTU1V and partial signals are OTU2/OTU2V. m=23 indicates
partial signals are OTU 2/OTU2V and partial signals are OTU3/OTU3V. m=123
indicates partial signals are OTU 1/OTU1V, partial signals are OTU2/OTU2V, and partial
signals are OTU3/OTU3V. The physical optical feature specifications of OTM-n.m

signals are determined by the suppliers. The recommendations do not have specific
specifications.
The optical layer signal OCh is composed of OCh payload and OCh overhead. After the
OCh is modulated to the OCC, multiple OCC time division multiplexes (TDM) constitute
the OCG-n.m unit. OMSn payload and OMSn overhead constitute the OMU-n.m. OTSn
payload and OTSn overhead constitute the OTM-n.m unit.
The overhead and generic management information of the optical layer units constitute
the OTM overhead signal (OOS), which is transmitted by 1-channel independent OSC in
the non-associated overhead.
The overhead of electrical layer units such as OPUk, ODUk, and OTUk are the
associated channel overheads, which are transmitted together with the payload.

Optical-Layer Overheads :

TTI: Trail trace identifier

BDI-O: Backward defect indication overhead
BDI-P: Backward defect indication payload
PMI-P: Payload missing indication
FDI-O: Frontward defection indication overhead
FDI-P: Frontward defection indication payload
OCI: Open connection indication

The OMS overhead is used to support the maintenance and operation function of the
optical MS, and is terminated at the OMU signal assembly and dissemble places, including:
FDI-P: Transmit OMSn payload signal status to the downstream direction.
FDI-O: Transmit OMSn overhead signal status to the downstream direction.
BDI-P: Transmit the OMSn payload signal invalidity status detected from the OMSn terminal
sink function to the upstream.
BDI-O: Transmit the OMSn overhead signal invalidity status detected from the OMSn terminal
sink function to the upstream.
PMI: Transmit the information with a OCCp containing optical channel signal information at the
upstream of OMS signal source terminal to the downstream, to suppress subsequent reporting of
signal invalidity status.

The OCh overhead is used to support the maintenance function of the fault management in
the optical channel, and is terminated at the OCh signal assembly and dissemble places,
including:
FDI-P: Transmit OCh payload signal status to the downstream direction.
FDI-O: Transmit OCh overhead signal status to the downstream direction.
OCI: It is the OCh open connection indication. The OCI is the signal sent to the downstream. It
indicates that the matrix connection is opened when the upstream delivers the management
commands in the connection function. Then, at the OCh terminal point, detect that the OCh
signal loss status may be related to the open matrix.
