Abstract:
1. A method for multi-service adaptation and carriage, the method comprising: mapping at a service adaptation layer different types of service into Enhanced Gigabit Passive Optical Network Encapsulation Method (E-GEM) frames; wherein each of the E-GEM frames comprises a frame header, an address identifier, and payload data; wherein the frame header comprises a service identifier for indicating an identification that distinguishes the service in the each of the E-GEM frames from other services in a network; wherein the address identifier comprises a destination identifier for indicating a termination point of the service in the network and a source identifier for indicating a start point of the service in the network; grouping the E-GEM frames by the same type of service based on the respective service identifier, wherein the grouped E-GEM frames are encapsulated into the same T-CONT frame at a channel layer; setting a priority for each type of T-CONT frames; and guaranteeing bandwidth for T-CONT frames with high priority and preferentially sending the T-CONT frames with high priority; wherein each of the T-CONT frames comprises a frame header, a channel overhead, and payload data; wherein the frame header further comprises a length of payload and a header-error-check, wherein the header-error-check is used for checking data in the frame header to search for and synchronize the frame header; wherein the channel overhead comprises a channel identifier for indicating a serial number of the T-CONT frames, a data check for detecting quality of data transmission at the channel layer, and a monitoring field for conveying an alert and a performance detection result at the channel layer.
