Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy
Introduction
• Plesiochronous is a Greek word meaning Almost Synchronous , but not fully
synchronous.
Digitization Process

Multiplexing Hierarchy
PDH E1 Frame
CH1 of every even frame consists of FAS Cx0011011 & every odd frame consists
of Cx1ASaSaSaSaSa.
CH16 of every frame consists of Channel Associated Signaling (CAS)
TERMINAL EQUIPMENT
REGENERATOR
It is the end equipment in any link or a line, which can either multiplex or de-
multiplex optical signals but cannot perform both the operations
In an LTE the Optical signal is converted to electrical domain and the operation of
multiplexing or de-multiplexing is done in electrical domain
The electrical signal is again converted back to the Optical signal and then
transmitted

Bit-Interleaved Multiplexing
• It is TDM
• One bit will be taken from all Tributaries.
