iPASOLINK Transmission Architecture
Native TDM
TDM based network is the bandwidth-guaranteed and synchronous network. It is free from time and
synchronization issues. However, TDM network can not manage the growth of data traffic efficiently.
Native IP
Unlike Native TDM network, IP based network can accommodate the growth of data traffic efficiently. In
addition, wiring work can be reduced dramatically as a result of shared connections.
However, IP-based network, due to its asynchronous and on-demand nature, does not guarantee synchronous delivery of
data. Therefore, synchronization issue due to fluctuation of delay, latency or jitter must be carefully considered in
transmission of mobile service.
Dual Native (Native TDM and Native IP)
Both packet switching and TDM cross connect are supported natively, which enables flexible transport per
traffic type on a single platform. Without incurring additional latency, delay/jitter sensitive traffic and clock such as 3GPP
Release-99 traffic is transmitted on TDM network directly, and IP based traffic such as LTE traffic is transmitted on IP
network directly without conversion. Moderate packet data growth may be efficiently aggregated by statistical multiplexing
while keeping the quality of delay/jitter sensitive TDM services..
TDM splitting (with PWE)
TDM splitting enables a port of legacy network traffic, such as HSPA data, to be dispensed onto IP network
with Pseudo-Wire Emulation (PWE), keeping only critical and timing-sensitive data on TDM network. With this functionality,
it is possible to streamline legacy network while increasing IP network usage.
PWE should be applied for transmission of jitter and latency relaxed services or where clock synchronization within mobile
RAN has been established by adoption of other synchronization measures.
Traffic Offload/Concentration
Traffic offload allows the operator to unload their IP traffic, including emulated legacy traffic, onto other cost
effective IP network. The benefit of traffic offloading is twofold: > Differentiation of services to customers
> Reduction of OPEX by converging voice and data traffic
In contrast to offload, concentration creates an opportunity for wholesale operators and carriers to maximize the utilization of
their networks by converging services and traffic from various customers .
