Abstract
Disclosed is a method for dynamically and losslessly adjusting bandwidth of an embedded Resilient Packet Ring (RPR) ring network, in which dynamic and lossless bandwidth adjustment for an RPR ring network embedded in a Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH)/Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) can be realized through adding a Link Capacity Adjustment Scheme (LCAS) system in the SDH/SONET processing layer. When it is required to increase ring network bandwidth, the bandwidth of the link section between sites on the SDH/SONET processing layer is first increased. Then the LCAS system in the SDH/SONET processing layer is started, and the actual bandwidth of the link on the SDH/SONET processing layer is increased losslessly with the LCAS system. Finally the bandwidth of the ring network on the RPR processing layer is increased. When it is required to decrease ring network bandwidth, the bandwidth of the ring network on the RPR processing layer is first decreased. Then the LCAS system in the SDH/SONET processing layer is started, and the actual bandwidth of the link on the SDH/SONET processing layer is decreased losslessly with the LCAS system. Finally the bandwidth of the link section between sites on the SDH/SONET processing layer is decreased. With the disclosed method, dynamic and lossless bandwidth adjustment for an embedded RPR ring network in SDH/SONET can be realized.
