Abstract: A system and method for block-code transcoding. An input signal is analyzed to determine if the input signal includes multiple control words, multiple data words and a single control word or only data words. If the input signal comprises multiple control words, the method includes, generating a control word location map and mapping the control codes and any data words to a block-code encoded transmission signal. If the input signal comprises a single control word and multiple data words, the method includes, generating a control word location address indicating a location of the single control word and mapping the control code and the multiple data words to a block-code encoded transmission signal. If the input signal comprises only data words, the method includes, mapping the data words sequentially into the block-code encoded transmission signal. Accordingly, the bandwidth efficiency of the transmission signal is improved by varying the encoding technique used dependent upon the contents of the input signal.

Abstract: A source node for rate adapting a constant bit rate client signal into a signal stream in a 64B/66B-block telecom signal communication link includes a GMP engine; a FIFO buffer coupled to receive a 64B/66B encoded client data stream; a clock rate measuring circuit; a source of 64B/66B path overhead blocks; a source of 64B/66B pad blocks; a source of 64B/66B idle blocks; a multiplexer; and a multiplexer controller. A control 64B/66B block is encoded into an ordered set block-designator and a count of data blocks to be sent in a next path signal frame is encoded into a plurality of path overhead 64B/66B data blocks. The multiplexer controller is responsive to a count of data blocks to be sent in a next path signal frame from a previous GMP window frame to selectively pass data to a data output so as to fill a GMP window frame.

Abstract: A method for rate adapting a constant bit rate (CBR) client signal into a signal stream in a telecom signal communication link includes at a source node encoding into a control block a control block header, and an ordered set block-designator, encoding into a plurality of path overhead data blocks a data block header and a count of data blocks to be encoded in a signal block, encoding into each of a plurality of signal blocks a data block header, the data blocks from the CBR signal equal to the count and pad blocks, assembling the blocks into a path signal frame, appending a set of idle character blocks following the end of the path signal frame to match a link bit rate of a first link segment, and transmitting the path signal frame and idle character blocks into the first link segment at the link bit rate.

Abstract: A method and apparatus includes receiving at a sink node a path signal frame and a modified set of idle character 64B/66B blocks. The path signal frame includes encoded client data signal 64B/66B blocks, path overhead 64B/66B data blocks and a control 64B/66B block. The link bit rate is measured. The number of idle character 64B/66B blocks is determined. The data blocks of the CBR client signal are extracted from the encoded client data signal 64B/66B blocks and the CBR client signal is regenerated from the extracted data blocks. A bit rate of the CBR client signal is determined using the measured link bit rate and the number of idle character 64B/66B blocks. The rate of a CBR signal clock is adjusted for transmitting the CBR client signal at the determined bit rate.

An input signal is analyzed to determine if the input signal comprises multiple data words and multiple control words, multiple data words and a single control word or multiple data words only. If the input signal comprises multiple control words, the method includes, generating a control word location map and mapping the control codes and data words to a block-code encoded transmission signal. If the input signal comprises a single control word, the method includes, generating a control word location address indicating a location of the single control word and mapping the control word and the data words to a block-code encoded transmission signal. If the input signal comprises multiple data words only, the method includes, mapping the multiple data words sequentially into the block-code encoded transmission signal. Accordingly, the bandwidth efficiency of the transmission signal is improved by varying the encoding technique used dependent upon the contents of the input signal.
