Tributary Unit
A tributary unit is a information structure which
provides adaptation between the lower order path
layer and the higher order path layer. It consists of a
information pay load (lower order virtual container)
and a tributary unit pointer which indicates the offset
of the pay load frame start relating to the higher order
VC frame start.
Tributary unit 1 for VC-1 and Tributary unit 2 is for VC-2
and Tributary unit 3 is for VC-3, when it is mapped for
VC-4 through tributary group-3. TU-3 pointer consists
of 3 bytes out of 9 bytes. Three bytes are H1, H2, H3
and remaining bytes are fixed bytes. TU-1 pointers are
one byte interleaved in the TUG-2.

BASIC DEFINATIONS
Pointer
An indicator whose value defines frame offset of a VC with respect
to the frame reference of transport entity, on which it is
supported.
Administrative Unit
It is the information structure which provides adaptation between
the higher order path layer and the multiplex section layer. It
consists of information pay load and a A.U. pointer which indicates
the offset of the pay load frame start relating to the multiplex
section frame start. Two AUs are defined (i) AU-4 consisting VC-4
plus an A.U. pointer indicating phase alignment of VC-4 with
respect to STM-N frame, (ii) AU-3 consisting of VC-3 plus A.U.
pointer indicating phase alignment of VC-3 with respect to STM-N
frame. A.U. location is fixed with respect to STM-N frame.

SOH BYTES-J1/C1
STM Identifier with J1/ C-1 Byte : In
STM-1 there is a single C-1 byte
which is used to identify each of
inter-leaved STMs and in an STM-N
signal. It takes binary equivalent to
position in inter-leave.
SOH BYTES- B1 B2
B-1 byte are called bit inter-leave parity-8.
This is used for error monitoring in the
regenerator section. There is only 1 byte
in STM-1 or STM-4 or STM-16. On line
monitoring done in this case.
B-2 bytes. These are used for error
monitoring in the multiplex section. There
are 3 bytes for STM-1, STM-4 and 16 will
have more number of B-2 bytes as per
their order.
SOH BYTES- K1 K2
K-1, K-2 bytes.
There are 2 bytes for STM-1, 4 or 16.
These are used for coordinating the
protection switching across a set of
multiplex section organised as
protection group, they are used for
automatic protection switching.

InService Maintenance
Signals
Major alarm conditions such as
Loss of Signal (LOS),
Loss of Frame (LOF),
Loss of Pointer (LOP)
Alarm Indication Signal (AIS) to be transmitted
downstream.
Different AIS signals are generated depending
upon which level of the maintenance hierarchy is
affected
InService Maintenance
Signals
Far End Receive Failure (FERF) is sent upstream in the
Multiplexer Section Overhead after Multiplexer Section AIS,
or LOS, or LOF has been detected by equipment
terminating in a Multiplexer Section span
Remote Alarm Indication (RAI) for a high order path is sent
upstream after Path AIS or LOP has been detected by
equipment terminating a Path, and similarly,
Remote Alarm Indication (RAI) for a Low Order Path is sent
upstream after Low Order Path AIS or LOP has been
detected by equipment terminating a Low Order Path.
S.D.H. MERITS
Simplified multiplexing/demultiplexing techniques.
Direct access to lower speed tributaries, without need
to multiplex/demultiplex the entire high speed signal.
