Abstract
Provided are methods and devices for determining the assignment of subsignals (S, S, S, S) transmitted by inverse multiplexing, particularly via an Optical Transport Network (OTN), to the transmission links () carrying said subsignals. After a synchronization for the correct assembly of the subsignals (S, S, S, S) into the digital reception signal (E), the signal transmission via at least one transmission link () is interrupted for a detection process in which the subsignal assigned to the interrupted link is determined. The process may be repeated to determine all subsignal assignments.
