  • the bit rate of the OTU2 frame is 10 gigabit (Gbit)/second (s); the bit rate of the OTU4 frame is 100 Gbit/s.
  • OTN equipment uses time division multiplexing technology for data transmission. For example, divide the OTN frame into multiple 1.25G time slots. Based on this, during data transmission, the sender first determines the number of time slots to be occupied according to the bit rate of the service data. For example, for an ODU2 frame divided into 8 1.25G time slots, if the service data rate is 3Gbit/s, the service data occupies 3 1.25G time slots. Then allocate the occupied idle time slot to the service data. In fact, the service data does not fully utilize the occupied bandwidth of the 3 time slots, resulting in a waste of 0.75G bandwidth. When multi-channel service data is mixedly transmitted, each service occupies a fixed number of time slots. In reality, not all services can fully utilize the occupied time slot bandwidth, which will cause more bandwidth waste and result in bandwidth Low utilization rate.

Description

光传送网中的数据传输方法及装置
本申请要求于2019年04月30日提交国家知识产权局、申请号为201910365275.8、申请名称为“光传送网中的数据传输方法及装置”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及光通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种光传送网中的数据传输方法及装置。
背景技术
在光传送网(optical transport network,OTN)中,发送端可以将业务数据映射到光净荷单元k(OPUk)帧的净荷区中,再为OPUk帧的净荷区添加OPUk开销和光数据单元k(optical data unit-k,ODUk)开销,得到ODUk帧;接着,为ODUk帧添加光传输单元k(optical transport unit-k,OTUk)开销等,得到OTUk帧,最后,向接收端发送该OTUk帧。其中,k取不同值时,OTUk帧的比特速率(即传输速率)不同。如OTU2帧的比特速率是10吉比特(Gbit)/秒(s);OTU4帧的比特速率是100Gbit/s。
OTN设备采用时分复用技术进行数据传输。例如,将OTN帧划分为多个1.25G时隙。基于此,在进行数据传输时,发送端先根据业务数据的比特速率,确定其要占用的时隙数量。例如,对于划分了8个1.25G时隙的ODU2帧来说,若业务数据速率是3Gbit/s,则该业务数据占用3个1.25G时隙。然后将伟被占用的空闲时隙分配给该业务数据。而实际上该业务数据并未将所占用的3个时隙带宽完全利用,造成0.75G的带宽浪费。当多路业务数据混合传输时,每路业务都占用固定数量的时隙,实际情况并不是所有业务都能将所占用的时隙带宽完全利用,这样会造成更多的带宽浪费,从而造成带宽利用率低。
发明内容
本申请实施例提供了光传送网(OTN)中的数据传输方法及装置,有助于减少带宽浪费,从而提高带宽资源利用率。
第一方面,本申请实施例提供了一种OTN中的数据传输方法,包括:将第一类业务数据映射到多个连续的净荷块中特定位置的净荷块;其中,该多个连续的净荷块占用ODU帧的净荷区。将第二类业务数据映射到该多个连续的净荷块中的除该特定位置的净荷块之外的任意位置的净荷块。具体地,将第二类业务数据映射到该多个连续的净荷块中的除该特定位置的净荷块之外的未被占用的任意位置的净荷块。然后,将该ODU帧映射到OTU帧或灵活OTN(FlexO)帧中。接着,发送该OTU帧或FlexO帧。由于第二类业务数据可以映射到非特定位置中未被占用的任意位置,因此,需要传输多路第二类业务数据时,可以共享非特定位置的净荷块,从而有助于减少带宽资源的浪费,提高带宽资源利用率。
本申请实施例提供的技术方案,可以理解为:将ODU净荷区直接划分为多个承载周期,一个承载周期包括n个连续的净荷块,消除了时隙概念。其中,本申请实施例对n的取值不进行限定,例如,n≥100,或n≥200等。例如,n=100、200、500或1000等。 可选的,n可以取无限大,相应地,单个净荷块的速率可以无限小。可选的,可以将一个或多个净荷块构成灵活支路单元,使所构成的灵活支路单元的速率和业务速率尽量完全一致。这有助于每路业务数据占用到最合适的带宽,从而尽量减小带宽浪费,大大提高带宽资源利用率。
在一种可能的设计中,第一类业务数据包括时分复用(TDM)业务数据。第二类业务数据包括固定速率的分组(PKT-CBR)业务数据和可变速率的分组(PKT-VBR)业务数据中的至少一种。在另一种可能的设计中,第一类业务数据包括TDM业务数据和PKT-CBR业务数据中的至少一种。第二类业务数据包括PKT-VBR业务数据。
在一种可能的设计中,该多个连续的净荷块为一个承载周期。第一类业务数据包括第一业务数据。第一业务数据在第一承载周期中占用的净荷块的位置与在第二承载周期中占用的净荷块的位置相同。其中,第一承载周期和第二承载周期可以是任意的两个承载周期。这样,发送端不需要向接收端发送用于表示第一业务数据在每个承载周期中占用的净荷块的位置的信息,从而可以降低传输开销。
在一种可能的设计中,该多个连续的净荷块为一个承载周期。第二类业务数据包括第二业务数据。第二业务数据在第一承载周期中占用的净荷块的位置与在第二承载周期中占用的净荷块的位置不同。也就是说,本申请实施例支持同一路第二类业务数据在不同承载周期中占用不同位置的净荷块。这样,有助于实现多路第二类业务数据共享承载周期中的非特定位置的净荷块。其中,第一承载周期和第二承载周期可以是任意的两个承载周期。
在一种可能的设计中,特定位置的净荷块在该多个连续的净荷块中均匀分布。这样,当第一类业务数据是对时钟性能要求较高的业务如TDM类业务时,可以满足时钟透明传送需求,从而保证接收端恢复的业务时钟满足性能要求。
在一种可能的设计中,承载第一类业务数据的净荷块中携带第一类业务数据的支路端口标识。这样,有助于接收端识别出第一类业务数据。
在一种可能的设计中,承载第二类业务数据的净荷块中携带第二类业务数据的支路端口标识。这样,有助于接收端识别出第二类业务数据。
其中,业务数据的支路端口标识也可以被称作业务数据的标识。
在一种可能的设计中,该方法还包括:发送第一信息。该第一信息用于指示特定位置的净荷块在该多个连续的净荷块中的位置。这样,有助于接收端识别出特定位置的净荷块,从而识别出第一类业务数据。
在一种可能的设计中,第一信息携带在ODU帧所包括的OPU开销中或者ODU开销中。
在一种可能的设计中,将第一类业务数据映射到该多个连续的净荷块中特定位置的净荷块包括:将第一类业务数据映射到第一业务帧。然后,将第一业务帧映射到特定位置的净荷块。这样,有助于对业务数据进行端到端管理,提高业务传送质量。
在一种可能的设计中,将第二类业务数据映射到该多个连续的净荷块中的除特定位置的净荷块之外的任意位置的净荷块包括:将第二类业务数据映射到第二业务帧。然后,将第二业务帧映射到该多个连续的净荷块中的除特定位置的净荷块之外的任意位置的净荷块。具体地,将第二业务帧映射到该多个连续的净荷块中的除特定位置的净荷块之外的未被占用的任意位置的净荷块。这样,有助于对业务数据进行端到端管理,提高业务 传送质量。
其中,业务帧包括开销和净荷。开销包括(或用于承载)映射信息,该映射信息用于表征将业务数据映射到该业务帧时所采用的映射规则。净荷包括(或用于承载)业务数据。
在一种可能的设计中,第一业务帧的大小等于净荷块的大小的整数倍。这样,有助于降低业务数据的映射复杂度,从而降低设备成本。可选地,第一业务帧的大小等于一个净荷块的大小。这样,有助于进一步降低业务数据的映射复杂度,从而进一步降低设备成本。
在一种可能的设计中,第二业务帧的大小等于净荷块的大小的整数倍。这样,有助于降低业务数据的映射复杂度,从而降低设备成本。可选地,第二业务帧的大小等于一个净荷块的大小。这样,有助于进一步降低业务数据的映射复杂度,从而进一步降低设备成本。
在一种可能的设计中,该方法还包括:发送第二信息。该第二信息用于指示该多个连续的净荷块中的首个净荷块在ODU帧的净荷区中的位置。这样,接收端可以基于第二信息确定该承载周期在ODU帧的净荷区中的起始位置,从而快速确定连续的承载周期边界。或者说快速识别承载周期,或者说快速确定ODU帧的净荷区与承载周期之间的对应关系。

具体实施方式
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行描述。
本申请实施例描述的网络架构和业务场景是为了更清楚地说明本申请实施例的技术 方案,并不构成对本申请实施例提供的技术方案的限制。本领域普通技术人员可知,随着网络架构的演变和新业务场景的出现,本申请实施例提供的技术方案对于类似技术问题同样适用。
本申请实施例提供的技术方案可适用于光网络,例如:OTN。一个OTN通常由多个OTN设备通过光纤连接而成,可以根据具体需要组成如线型、环形和网状等不同的拓扑类型。
图1给出了可适用于本申请实施例的一种网络架构的示意图。如图1所示的OTN包括两个OTN网络(分别为OTN网络1和OTN网络2)。每一个OTN网络包括一定数量的OTN设备(图1中用N表示),OTN网络内的设备之间的链路为域内链路,OTN网络间的设备之间的链路为域间链路。根据实际需要,一个OTN设备可能具备一种或多种功能。一般来说,OTN设备分为光层设备、电层设备以及光电混合设备。光层设备指的是能够处理光层信号的设备,例如:光放大器(optical amplifier,OA)。电层设备指的是能够处理电层信号的设备,例如:能够处理ODU信号的设备。光电混合设备指的是具备处理光层信号和电层信号能力的设备。需要说明的是,根据具体的集成需要,一台OTN设备可以集合多种不同的功能。本申请提供的技术方案适用于不同形态和集成度的OTN设备。
图2给出了可适用于本申请实施例的一种OTN设备的硬件结构示意图。具体地,一个OTN设备包括电源、风扇、辅助类单板,还可能包括支路板、线路板、交叉板,以及系统控制和通信类单板,其中,线路板也可包括光层处理单板。需要说明的是,根据具体的需要,每个设备具体包含的单板类型和数量可能不相同。例如,作为核心节点的网络设备可能没有支路板。作为边缘节点的网络设备可能有多个支路板。其中,电源用于为OTN设备供电,可能包括主用和备用电源。风扇用于为设备散热。辅助类单板用于提供外部告警或者接入外部时钟等辅助功能。支路板、交叉板和线路板主要是用于处理OTN的电层信号(后续称为OTN帧)。其中,支路板用于实现各种客户业务的接收和发送,例如同步数字体系(synchronous digital hierarchy,SDH)业务、分组业务、以太网业务和前传业务等。更进一步地,支路板可以划分为客户侧光模块和信号处理器。其中,客户侧光模块可以为光收发器,用于接收和/或发送客户信号。信号处理器用于实现对客户信号到OTN帧的映射和解映射处理。交叉板用于实现OTN帧的交换,完成一种或多种类型的OTN帧的交换。线路板主要实现线路侧OTN帧的处理。具体地,线路板可以划分为线路侧光模块和信号处理器。其中,线路侧光模块可以为线路侧光收发器,用于接收和/或发送OTN帧。信号处理器用于实现对线路侧的OTN帧的复用和解复用,或者映射和解映射处理。系统控制和通信类单板用于实现系统控制和通信。具体地,可以通过背板从不同的单板收集信息,或者将控制指令发送到对应的单板上去。除非特殊说明,具体的组件(例如支路板)可以是一个或多个,本申请不做任何限制。需要说明的是,本申请实施例对设备包含的单板类型,以及单板具体的功能设计和数量不做限制。
为了更加清楚的理解本申请,以下对本申请实施例中使用的部分术语和技术作简单介绍。
1)、ODU帧(如ODUk帧)和OTU帧(如OTUk帧)
在电层上,OTN设备所处理的OTN帧可以采用国际电信联盟-电信标准分部(International Telecommunication Union-Telecommunication standard sector,ITU-T)定义 的帧格式。例如,G.709标准和G.709.1标准等,以实现设备之间的互通。现有的标准中已经定义了多种速率的OTN帧,如OPUk帧、ODUk帧和OTUk帧。其中,k=0、1、2、3、4、Cn和flex分别表示比特速率为1.25Gbit/s、2.5Gbit/s、10Gbit/s、40Gbit/s、100Gbit/s、n*100Gbit/s和n*1.25Gbit/s(n≥2)。需要说明的是,上述提及的比特速率均为近似值。例如,OPU4帧的比特速率更准确的为104.35597533Gbit/s。其他示例不再一一列举。
图3和图4分别示出了k≠Cn和k=Cn时,OTUk帧的帧结构示意图。
当k≠Cn时,如图3所示,一个OTUk帧有4行*4080列。OPUk净荷区和OPUk开销区(即OPUk OH)构成了OPUk帧,OPUk帧和ODUk开销区(即ODUk OH)构成了ODUk帧,ODUk帧、OTUk开销区(即OTUk OH)、帧对齐信号(frame alignment signal,FAS)和前向错误纠正(forward error correction,FEC)校验区构成了OTUk帧。具体地,OTUk帧中的第1行的1~7列为FAS和复帧对齐信号(multiframe alignment signal,MFAS),第1行的8~14列为OTUk OH,第2~4行的1~14列为ODUk OH,第1~4行的15~16列为OPUk OH,第1~4行的17~3824列为OPUk净荷区,第1~4行的3825~4080列为FEC校验区。
当k=Cn时,如图4所示,OTUCn帧由n个OTUC实例帧(图4中记为OTUC#1至OTUC#n)组成,C表示比特速率为100Gbit/s。OTUC实例帧不包括FEC校验区。OTUCn帧包括OPUCn帧(即OTUCn帧中的第15~3824列),OPUCn帧由n个OPUC实例帧(即一个OTUC实例帧中的第15~3824列)组成。其中,OPUCn帧的净荷区可以由n个OPUC实例帧的净荷区按照一定字节数间插组成。例如,按照16列间插。需要说明的是,OTUC实例帧指的是构成OTUCn帧的基本帧单位,也可以称为OTUC基础帧或其他名称,本申请对此不作任何限定。
2)、净荷块
净荷块,位于ODU帧的净荷区,由一个字节或连续的多个字节构成,或者连续的多个比特构成。具体地,一个净荷块的大小可以是字节的整数倍,也可以是8字节的整数倍,如64字节、128字节、192字节或256字节等。可选地,不同净荷块的大小相等,下文中的具体示例均以此为例进行说明。净荷块也可以被称作码块或其他名字,本申请对此不做限定。
需要说明的是,具体实现时,一个净荷块为承载业务数据的最小单元(亦可以称为最小支路单元)。一个净荷块的速率可以任意小。多个净荷块可以组合作为一个灵活支路单元,用于承载对应速率的业务数据。
本申请提到的连续的两个字节,可以是一个ODU帧的净荷区的同一行中相邻的两个字节。或者,也可以是一个ODU帧的净荷区的一行中的最后一个字节和该行的下一行中的第一个字节。或者,还可以是一个ODU帧的净荷区中的最后一个字节和该ODU帧的下一个ODU帧的净荷区中的第一个字节。“字节”可以替换为“比特”。也就是说,一个净荷块可以位于一个ODU帧的净荷区中的同一行,也可以跨行;还可以跨ODU帧的净荷区。
3)、n个连续的净荷块和承载周期
n是大于或等于2的整数。本申请实施例对n的具体取值不进行限定。n个连续的净荷块可以位于一个ODU帧的净荷区,也可以跨多个ODU帧的净荷区。当n个连续的净荷块位于一个ODU帧的净荷区时,具体可以位于净荷区中的一行也可以跨多行。
在一种实现方式中,n个连续的净荷块占用整数倍个ODU帧的净荷区。例如,n个连续的净荷块占用1个ODU帧的净荷区或2个ODU帧的净荷区。图5A给出了一种n个连续的净荷块占用2个ODU帧的净荷区。在另一种实现方式中,n个连续的净荷块占用非整数倍个ODU帧的净荷区。例如,n个连续的净荷块占用0.4个ODU帧的净荷区或1.5个ODU帧的净荷区等。图5B给出了一种n个连续的净荷块占用1.5个ODU帧的净荷区。
图5A和图5B均以图3所示的OTUk帧中所包含的ODUk帧为例。并且,对图5A和图5B中的任一附图来说,a图和b图分别为第j个ODUk帧和第j+1个ODUk帧的结构示意图,j是大于或等于1的整数;c图为n个连续的净荷块(如阴影部分所示)和该n个连续的净荷块对应的开销区(即OH)的示意图。其中,c图中的开销区对应于(即占用)a图和b图中的ODUk OH和OPUk OH;n个连续的净荷块中的“斜线阴影”所示的净荷块对应于(即占用)a图中的ODU帧的净荷区(如a图中的斜线阴影所示),n个连续的净荷块中的“方格阴影”所示的净荷块对应于(即占用)b图中的ODU帧的净荷区(如b图中的方格阴影所示)。
综上可知,本申请支持n个连续的净荷块与ODU帧的净荷区松耦合。换言之,本申请实施例可以不限定n个连续的净荷块的大小与ODU帧的净荷区的大小之间的关系。
可以理解的是,n个连续的净荷块中的第1至第n个净荷块中承载的业务数据的传输顺序,与该n个连续的净荷块所占用的ODU帧的净荷区中承载的业务数据的传输顺序相同。其中,一个ODU帧的净荷区中承载的业务数据,是按照其在该净荷区中所处的位置“从上到下、从左到右”的顺序进行传输的。例如,结合图3,映射至第1行第17~3824列、第2行第17~3824列、第3行第17~3824列和第4行第17~3824列的业务数据依次传输。
在本申请一些实施例中,为了方便描述,将n个连续的净荷块称为一个承载周期。承载周期也可以被称作发送周期、映射周期或数据中间帧等。对此,本申请实施例不进行限定。
可选地,每个承载周期所包括的净荷块的数量相同。
可选地,一个承载周期所包括的最后一个净荷块与该承载周期的下一个承载周期所包括的第一个净荷块之间是ODU帧的净荷区中相邻的两个净荷块。也就是说,连续的多个承载周期占用一个或多个ODU帧的净荷区中连续的多个字节(或比特)。
为了方便描述,在本申请实施例中,每个承载周期中的净荷块的编号(或索引)使用1~n。在附图中标记为#1~#n为例进行说明,在此统一说明,下文不再赘述。
4)、第一类业务数据和第二类业务数据
可选地,第一类业务数据可以包括时分复用(time division multiplexing,TDM)业务数据和固定速率的分组(packet-constants bit rate,PKT-CBR)业务数据中的至少一种。
可选地,第二类业务数据可以包括PKT-CBR业务数据和可变速率的分组业务(packet-variable bit rate,PKT-VBR)中的至少一种。
也就是说,PKT-CBR业务数据可以作为第一类业务数据,也可以作为第二类业务数据。具体实现时,发送端和接收端可以基于预定义的规则(如协议预定义的规则),确定哪些业务数据是第一类业务数据,哪些业务数据是第二类业务数据。
本申请实施例提供的技术方案用于混合传输上述两类业务数据的场景中。具体地, 可以是混合传输一路或多路第一类业务数据,以及,一路或多路第二类业务数据。下文描述的第一至第六业务数据均是指一路业务数据。可以理解的是,来自不同客户源的业务数据是不同路业务数据,另外,来自同一客户源的业务数据也可以划分为不同路业务数据。
5)、业务帧,第一业务帧和第二业务帧
业务帧包括开销和净荷。业务帧的开销可以用于对业务数据进行监控管理以及承载映射信息等。该映射信息可以用于表征将业务数据映射到业务帧时所采用的映射规则。例如,业务帧的开销包括但不限于业务帧头指示,路径踪迹指示(trail trace identifier,TTI)、X比特间插奇偶校验(X bit-interleaved parity,BIP-X)、后向错误指示(backward error indication,BEI)、后向缺陷指示(backward defect indication,BD)、状态指示(status,STAT)、时戳、顺序标识、映射开销等。业务帧的净荷用于承载业务数据。示例的,业务帧可以是光业务单元(optical service unit,OSU)。
为了方便描述,在本申请的一些实施例中,引入了“第一业务帧”和“第二业务帧”的概念。它们分别用于承载(或映射)第一类业务数据和第二类业务数据。
可选地,第一业务帧的大小和第二业务帧的大小都等于净荷块的大小的整数倍。这样,可以降低业务数据的映射复杂度,从而降低设备成本。或者,第一业务帧的大小和第二业务帧的大小都等于一个净荷块的大小。这样,有助于进一步降低业务数据的映射复杂度,从而进一步降低设备成本。其中,一个业务帧的大小可以是指该业务帧的开销的大小和该业务帧的净荷的大小之和。或者,一个业务帧的大小可以是指该业务帧的净荷的大小。
6)、发送端和接收端
本申请实施例中,发送端是指OTN中发送业务数据的设备,接收端是指OTN中接收业务数据的设备。该发送端和接收端均可以是上文中描述的OTN设备。
7)、其他术语
本申请实施例中的术语“至少一个(种)”包括一个(种)或多个(种)。“多个(种)”是指两个(种)或两个(种)以上。例如,A、B和C中的至少一种,包括:单独存在A、单独存在B、同时存在A和B、同时存在A和C、同时存在B和C,以及同时存在A、B和C。
在本申请的描述中,除非另有说明,“/”表示或的意思,例如,A/B可以表示A或B;本文中的“和/或”仅仅是一种描述关联对象的关联关系,表示可以存在三种关系,例如,A和/或B,可以表示:单独存在A,同时存在A和B,单独存在B这三种情况。
在本申请的描述中,“多个”是指两个或多于两个。在本申请实施例中,为了便于清楚描述所提供的技术方案,采用了“第一”、“第二”等字样对功能和作用基本相同的相同项或相似项进行区分。可以理解,“第一”、“第二”等字样并不对数量和执行次序进行限定。
在本申请实施例中,两个步骤的执行顺序不分先后,包括:先执行其中一个步骤再执行另一个步骤;或者在执行一个步骤的过程中执行另一个步骤;或者同时执行这两个步骤等。
以下,结合附图,对本申请实施例提供的光传送网中的数据传输方法进行说明。
如图6所示,为本申请实施例提供的一种光传送网中的数据传输方法的交互示意图。 本实施例中是以“混合传输一路第一类业务数据和一路第二类业务数据,且业务数据直接映射到ODU帧的净荷区”为例进行说明的。图6所示的方法包括如下步骤:
S101:发送端接收第一业务数据和第二业务数据。其中,第一业务数据属于第一类业务数据,第二业务数据属于第二类业务数据。
例如,发送端接收来自客户源的第一业务数据和第二业务数据。
S102:发送端根据第一业务数据的比特速率和单个净荷块的比特速率,确定第一业务数据在一个承载周期中占用的净荷块的数量m。m是大于或等于1的整数。例如,m为对“第一业务数据的比特速率除以单个净荷块的比特速率后得到的值”向上取整后得到的值。
单个净荷块的比特速率a、一个承载周期所包括的净荷块的数量n和ODU帧的净荷速率b之间满足公式a*n=b。其中,n为大于等于2的整数。n的取值可以根据具体情况任意配置。b的取值跟ODU帧类型相关。例如,ODU2帧时,b为10Gbit/s。
可选地,可以预先配置一个承载周期所包含的净荷块数量n的取值。该情况下,通过ODU帧的净荷速率b除以n可以得到单个净荷块的比特速率a。
可选地,可以预先配置单个净荷块的比特速率a的取值。例如假定净荷块的大小为128字节,设定单个净荷块的发送频率为每秒2000个,即每秒发送2000个承载周期。那么,单个净荷块的比特速率a为128*8*2000=2.048Mbit/s。该情况下,通过ODU帧的净荷速率b除以单个净荷块速率a可以得到一个承载周期所包含的净荷块数量n的取值。
S103:发送端确定用于承载第一业务数据的m个净荷块的位置。
一个净荷块的位置是指该净荷块在该净荷块所属的承载周期中的位置。例如,可以使用一个净荷块的编号(或索引)来表征该净荷块在该净荷块所属的承载周期中的位置。该m个净荷块为m个特定位置的净荷块。该步骤可以理解为:发送端确定m个特定位置的净荷块的位置图案(或固定位置图案)。
可选地,该m个特定位置的净荷块在一个承载周期中均匀分布。例如,假设一个承载周期由40个净荷块(编号分别是#1~#40)构成,m=4,且m个特定位置的净荷块的编号可以分别是:#1、#11、#21、#31。这样,当第一类业务数据是对时钟性能要求较高的业务如TDM类业务时,可以满足时钟透明传送需求,从而保证接收端恢复的业务时钟满足性能要求。可以理解的是,TDM类业务为固定比特速率,且有自己的时钟性能要求。例如时钟漂移和抖动指标等,这就需要发送端尽量实时地按照该类业务的原始固定比特速率向接收端传送业务数据。而“该m个特定位置的净荷块在一个承载周期中均匀分布”有助于发送端尽量实时地按照该类业务的原始固定比特速率向接收端传送业务数据。
可选地,发送端可以根据预定义规则,确定该m个特定位置的净荷块的位置。例如,该预定义规则可以是一种预定义算法如sigma-delta算法等。其中,该预定义规则可以是发送端和接收端均预先可以获知的规则,也可以是发送端自行定义而接收端预先不知道的规则。
S104:发送端将第一业务数据和第二业务数据映射到ODU帧的净荷区。
具体地:
在每个承载周期中,发送端根据S103中所确定的固定位置图案,将第一业务数据映射到该承载周期中的m个特定位置的净荷块。
在每个承载周期中,发送端将第二业务数据映射到非特定位置的净荷块中未被占用 的任意位置的净荷块。例如,发送端在接收到第二业务数据的数据量达到一个净荷块的大小时,将这些数据映射到非特定位置的净荷块中未被占用的任意一个净荷块。
关于ODU帧的净荷区与承载周期之间的对应关系可以参考上文,例如图5A或图5B。
基于S104可知,承载第一业务数据的净荷块在不同承载周期中的位置均相同。承载第二业务数据的净荷块在不同承载周期中的位置可能相同,也可能不同。
另外,在不同承载周期中,承载第二业务数据的净荷块的数量可以相同,也可以不同。第二业务数据占用的净荷块的数量,可以基于第二业务数据的实时流量确定。假设在某个承载周期内,第二业务数据的流量为T;那么,在该承载周期内,第二业务数据需要占用的净荷块的数量最多为T除以单个净荷块速率后得到的值。
如图7所示,为本申请实施例提供的一种业务数据映射示意图。其中,图7中是示意出了2个承载周期(即第1个承载周期和第2个承载周期)中第一业务数据和第二业务数据的映射示意图。并且,具体是以一个承载周期由40个净荷块(编号分别是#1~#40)构成,且m个特定位置的净荷块的编号分别是:#1、#11、#21、#31为例进行说明的。参见图7,在这两个承载周期中,第一业务数据均映射在编号为#1、#11、#21、#31的净荷块中。并且,在第1个承载周期中,第二业务数据映射在编号为#5、#8、#23、#25的净荷块中,在第2个承载周期中,第二业务数据映射在编号为#2、#5、#7、#28、#40的净荷块中。
需要说明的是,为了方便描述和便于理解,本申请的一些具体示例(如图7或图9等)中是以一个承载周期由40个净荷块构成为例进行说明的。在实际实现时,一个承载周期中可以由n(n>40)个净荷块构成,例如,n=100、200、300或1000等。
S105:发送端为ODU帧的净荷区添加OPU开销和ODU开销,得到ODU帧;并将ODU帧映射到OTU帧或灵活OTN(flexible OTN,FlexO)帧。
具体地,当ODU帧具体是ODUk帧,且k≠Cn时:在一种实现方式中,可以为该ODU帧添加OTU开销等,得到OTU帧。在另一种实现方式中,可以先将ODU帧映射到其他高阶ODU帧中。例如,将ODU1帧映射到ODU2帧或ODU3帧中等。然后为该高阶ODU帧添加OTU开销等,得到OTU帧。在另一种实现方式中,可以先将ODUk(k≠Cn)帧映射到ODUCn帧,为该ODUCn帧添加OTU开销等,得到OTUCn帧。然后,将OTUCn帧映射成FlexO帧。当ODU帧具体是ODUk帧,且k=Cn时,为该ODU帧添加OTU开销等,得到OTUCn帧;再将OTUCn帧映射成FlexO帧。
S106:发送端发送该OTU帧或FlexO帧。
例如,当在S105中将ODU帧映射成FlexO帧时,可以通过FlexO接口发送该FlexO帧。
可选地,对于同一路业务数据来说,发送端先接收到的业务数据先被发送,后接收到的业务数据后被发送。对于不同路业务数据来说,本申请实施例对发送端接收和发送业务数据的顺序不进行限定。基于此,在S104中,将同一路业务数据映射到ODU帧的净荷区时,可以基于ODU帧的净荷区中“从上到下、从左到右”的顺序进行映射。
S107:接收端对所接收到的OTU帧或FlexO帧进行解映射,得到ODU帧。
其中,ODU帧中承载的业务数据可以参考上述S104的映射结果。
S108:接收端根据ODU帧的净荷区与承载周期之间的对应关系,识别出承载周期,并从该承载周期所包括的净荷块中解析得到第一业务数据和第二业务数据。
其中,ODU帧的净荷区与承载周期之间的对应关系可以是预定义,例如,二者之间的对应关系可以如图5A或图5B所示。识别出承载周期,可以理解为:确定一个承载周期在ODU帧的净荷区中的位置,如一个承载周期占用ODU帧的净荷区中的哪些字节(或比特)。
为了使接收端识别出第一业务数据,本申请实施例提供了以下具体实现方式:
方式1:发送端可以在承载第一业务数据的净荷块(即该m个特定位置的净荷块)中携带第一业务数据的支路端口标识。该步骤可以发生在S104的过程中或S104之后。基于方式1,接收端可以将一个承载周期中的且携带第一业务数据的支路端口标识的净荷块中承载的业务数据作为第一业务数据。
其中,一路业务数据具有一个支路端口标识。业务数据的支路端口标识也可以被称作该业务数据的标识。该路业务数据可以是第一业务数据,或者,也可以是下文中描述的第二至第六业务数据。
方式2:发送端可以向接收端发送第一信息。第一信息用于指示该m个特定位置的净荷块在其所属的承载周期中的位置。可选地,第一信息可以携带在ODU帧所包括的OPU开销中或者ODU开销中。基于方式2,接收端可以将一个承载周期中的且位于第一信息所指示的位置的净荷块中承载的业务数据作为第一业务数据。
可选地,当第一信息携带在ODU帧所包括的OPU开销中时,可以通过一个ODU帧中的OPU开销中的MFAS和超帧指示(super-frame alignment signal,SFAS)来指示一个承载周期中的一个净荷块的位置。并且,可以结合该OPU开销区中的复用结构指示(multiplex structure identifier,MSI)来指示一个承载周期中相应位置的净荷块(即由MFAS和SFAS共同确定的净荷块)是否是特定位置的净荷块。可选地,MSI还可以用于指示该相应位置的净荷块的支路端口标识,以使得接收端可以基于该支路端口标识识别出该相应位置的净荷块中承载的业务数据属于哪一路业务数据。
其中,MFAS用于进行ODU帧计数。在目前的ODU帧结构(例如图3所示的ODUk帧结构)中,MFAS占用8比特,位于ODU帧的第1行第7列。MFAS的取值范围为0~255。每个ODU帧MFAS的取值加1。也就是说,如果第i个ODU帧所携带的MFAS的取值小于255,则第i+1个ODU帧中携带的MFAS的取值相比第i个ODU帧所携带的MFAS的取值增加了1。如果第i个ODU帧所携带的MFAS的取值等于255,则第i+1个ODU帧中携带的MFAS的取值为0。i是大于或等于1的整数。基于此,可以将256个ODU帧作为一个复帧周期。当然本申请实施例并不限定一个复帧周期所包括的ODU帧的个数。
SFAS用于进行MFAS计数。SFAS为本申请实施例新定义的字段。SFAS所占的比特数可以是基于一个承载周期所包括的净荷块的个数与MFAS所占的比特数确定的。例如,当一个承载周期所包括的净荷块的个数是65536、且MFAS占用8比特时,SFAS可以占用8比特。该情况下,SFAS可以表示的范围为0~255,通过MFAS和SFAS即可表示范围256*256=65536。
同一复帧周期中的ODU帧所携带的SFAS的取值相同。以SFAS的表示范围为0~255为例,每个复帧周期SFAS的取值加1。也就是说,如果第j个复帧周期中的ODU帧所携带的SFAS的取值小于255,则第j+1个复帧周期中的ODU帧所携带的SFAS的取值相比第j个复帧周期中的ODU帧所携带的SFAS的取值增加了1。如果第j个复帧周期 中的ODU帧所携带的SFAS的取值等于255,则第j+1个复帧周期中的ODU帧所携带的SFAS的取值为0。其中,j是大于或等于1的整数。
MSI用于指示一个承载周期中相应位置的净荷块(即由MFAS和SFAS共同确定的净荷块)是否是特定位置的净荷块。例如,通过MSI[MFAS*SFAS]表示一个承载周期的第MFAS*SFAS个净荷块是否是特定位置的净荷块。具体地,MSI的“第1个比特是1”表示第MFAS*SFAS个净荷块是特定位置的净荷块,“第1个比特是0”表示第MFAS*SFAS个净荷块不是特定位置的净荷块。第2~8个比特可以表示第MFAS*SFAS个净荷块上承载的业务数据的支路端口标识。如图8所示,为基于该示例提供的一种ODU帧的结构示意图。图8中所示的ODU帧是基于图3进行绘制的。并且,图8中是以SFAS位于ODU帧的第4行第16列为例进行说明的。图8中的“占用”可以理解为占用标识,用于指示当前ODU帧所对应的MSI[MFAS*SFAS]位置的净荷块是否为特定位置的净荷块。需要说明的是,本申请实施例对SFAS和MSI占用的比特数和表示的范围不做限定,根据实际情况可灵活配置。
方式3:接收端可以根据与发送端所采用的同样的预定义算法(如sigma-delta算法、或者接收端和发送端自定义的算法等),确定该m个特定位置的净荷块的位置,从而将一个承载周期中的该所确定的位置的净荷块中承载的业务数据作为第一业务数据。这样,发送端不需要向接收端传输该m个特定位置的净荷块的位置,有助于降低数据处理的复杂度。
可以理解的是,在不冲突的情况下,上述方式1和方式2可以结合使用。例如,承载第一业务数据的一部分净荷块中携带第一业务数据的支路端口标识。并且,发送端向接收端指示另一部分净荷块在其所属的承载周期中的位置。
需要说明的是,在具体实现时,还可以由网管或软件定义网络(software defined network,SDN)预先为发送端和接收端配置该m个特定位置的净荷块。其中,网管和SDN是软件功能模块,其所在的物理实体可以是上述发送端或接收端,或独立于上述发送端和接收端的一个设备。网管和SDN均可以用于管理OTN中的设备。
为了使接收端识别出第二业务数据,本申请实施例提供了以下具体实现方式:发送端可以在承载第二业务数据的净荷块中携带第二业务数据的支路端口标识。该情况下,接收端可以将一个承载周期中的且携带第二业务数据的支路端口标识的净荷块中承载的业务数据作为第二业务数据。
本实施例提供的技术方案中,将第一类业务数据映射到多个连续的净荷块中的特定位置的净荷块,并将第二类业务数据映射到该多个连续的净荷块中的除该特定位置中之外的未被占用的任意位置的净荷块。由于对于第二类业务数据来说,可以映射到非特定位置中未被占用的任意位置,因此,需要传输多路第二类业务数据时,可以共享非特定位置的净荷块,从而有助于减少带宽资源的浪费,从而提高带宽资源利用率。
需要说明的是,在本申请的一些实施例中,对于第一类业务数据,在每个承载周期中都映射到m个特定位置的净荷块。并且,m个特定位置在一个承载周期中均匀分布。这样,当第一类业务数据是对时钟性能要求较高的业务如TDM类业务时,可以满足时钟透明传送需求,从而保证接收端恢复的业务时钟满足性能要求。
如图9所示,为本申请实施例提供的一种光传送网中的数据传输方法的交互示意图。本实施例中是以“混合传输多路第一类业务数据和多路第二类业务数据,且业务数据直 接映射到ODU帧的净荷区”为例进行说明的。图9所示的方法包括如下步骤:
S201:发送端接收第三业务数据、第四业务数据、第五业务数据和第六业务数据。其中,第三业务数据和第四业务数据均属于第一类业务数据,第五业务数据和第六业务数据均属于第二类业务数据。并且,第三业务数据和第四业务数据是不同路业务数据,第五业务数据和第六业务数据是不同路业务数据。
可以理解的是,第三业务数据和第四业务数据中的其中一个业务数据与上述的第一业务数据可以相同,当然,第三业务数据和第四业务数据也可以均与上第一业务数据不同。同理,第五业务数据和第六业务数据中的其中一个业务数据与上述第二业务数据可以相同,当然,第五业务数据和第六业务数据也可以均与上述第二业务数据不同。
S202:发送端根据第三业务数据的比特速率和单个净荷块的比特速率,确定第三业务数据在一个承载周期中占用的净荷块的数量m1。并根据第四业务数据的比特速率和单个净荷块的比特速率,确定第四业务数据在一个承载周期中占用的净荷块的数量m2。m1和m2均是大于或等于1的整数。m1的取值与m2的取值可以相等,也可以不相等。
S203:发送端确定用于承载第三业务数据的m1个净荷块的位置,以及用于承载第四业务数据的m2个净荷块的位置。也就是说,确定该m1个特定位置的净荷块的固定位置图案,以及该m2个特定位置的净荷块的固定位置图案。可选地,该m1个特定位置的净荷块在承载周期中均匀分布。可选地,该m2个特定位置的净荷块在承载周期中均匀分布。
S204:发送端将第三业务数据、第四业务数据、第五业务数据和第六业务数据混合映射到ODU帧的净荷区(具体是一个或多个ODU帧的部分或全部净荷区)。
具体地:
在每个承载周期中,发送端将第三业务数据映射到该承载周期中的该m1个特定位置的净荷块,并将第四业务数据映射到该承载周期中的该m2个特定位置的净荷块。这两个步骤的执行顺序可以不分先后。
在每个承载周期中,发送端将第五业务数据和第六业务数据分别映射到非特定位置的净荷块中未被占用的任意位置的净荷块。这两个步骤的执行顺序可以不分先后。例如,在接收到第五业务数据的数据量达到一个净荷块的大小时,将这些第五业务数据映射到非特定位置的净荷块中未被占用的任意一个净荷块。在接收到第六业务数据的数据量达到一个净荷块的大小时,将这些第六业务数据映射到非特定位置的净荷块中未被占用的任意一个净荷块。
可选地,如果同一时刻,第五业务数据和第六业务数据的数据量均达到了一个净荷块的大小,则发送端可以根据第五业务数据和第六业务数据的优先级顺序和/或轮询方式,将第五业务数据和第六业务数据映射到非特定位置的净荷块中未被占用的任意位置的净荷块。其中,第五业务数据和第六业务数据的优先级顺序可以是预先配置的,轮询方式可以是按照业务标识顺序或者预先配置的顺序。
基于S204可知:承载第三业务数据的净荷块在不同承载周期中的位置均相同。承载第四业务数据的净荷块在不同承载周期中的位置均相同。但是,承载第五业务数据和第六业务数据的净荷块在不同承载周期中的位置可能相同,也可能不同。
如图10所示,为本申请实施例提供的一种业务数据映射示意图。其中,图10中是示意出了2个承载周期(即第1个承载周期和第2个承载周期)中第三至第六业务数据 的映射示意图。并且,一个承载周期由40个净荷块(编号分别是#1~#40)构成。m1个特定位置的净荷块的编号分别是:#1、#11、#21和#31。m2个特定位置的净荷块的编号分别是#2、#10、#18、#26、#34。参见图10,在这两个承载周期中,第三业务数据均映射在编号为#1、#11、#21和#31的净荷块中,第四业务数据均映射在编号为#2、#10、#18、#26和#34的净荷块中。另外,在第1个承载周期中,第五业务数据映射在编号为#5、#8、#23和#25的净荷块中,第六业务数据映射在编号为#3的净荷块中。在第2个承载周期中,第五业务数据映射在编号为#5、#8和#23的净荷块中,第六业务数据映射在编号为#7、#9和#12的净荷块中。
S205~S207:可以参考上述S105~S107。
S208:接收端根据ODU帧的净荷区与承载周期之间的对应关系,识别出承载周期。并从该承载周期所包括的净荷块中解析得到第三至第六业务数据。
具体地,解析该承载周期中的该m1个特定位置的净荷块上承载的业务数据,得到第三业务数据。解析该承载周期中的该m2个特定位置净荷块上承载的业务数据,得到第四业务数据。这两个步骤的具体实现方式可以参考上述获得第一业务数据的方法。接收端解析得到第五业务数据和第六业务数据的方法可以参考上文中获得第二业务数据的方法。
本实施例提供的技术方案的有益效果可以参考上述图6所示的实施例的有益效果。另外,多路第二类业务可共享每个承载周期中的非特定位置的净荷块,有助于提高带宽利用率。
如图11所示,为本申请实施例提供的一种光传送网中的数据传输方法的交互示意图。本实施例中是以“混合传输一路第一类业务数据和一路第二类业务数据,且业务数据间接映射到ODU帧的净荷区”为例进行说明的。图11所示的方法包括如下步骤:
S301~S303:可以参考上述S101~S103。
S304:发送端将第一业务数据映射到第一业务帧,将第二业务数据映射到第二业务帧。以及,将第一业务帧和第二业务帧混合映射到ODU帧的净荷区。
具体地:将第一业务数据映射到第一业务帧的净荷区,并添加第一业务帧的开销到该业务帧的开销区。将第二业务数据映射到第二业务帧的净荷区,并添加第二业务帧的开销到该业务帧的开销区。在每个承载周期中,发送端根据S303中所确定的固定位置图案,将第一业务帧映射到该承载周期中的m个特定位置的净荷块。在每个承载周期中,将第二业务帧映射到非特定位置的净荷块中未被占用的任意位置的净荷块。
如图12所示,为本申请实施例提供的一种业务数据映射示意图。其中,图12中所针对的业务数据可以是第一业务数据,也可以是第二业务数据。参见图12可知,对于一路业务数据来说,先将该业务数据映射到一个业务帧的净荷区,再将该业务帧映射到ODU帧的净荷区。其中,图12中是以ODU帧的净荷区具体是一个承载周期为例进行说明的。
本申请实施例对发送端将第一类业务数据(如第一业务数据)映射至业务帧的具体实现方式不进行限定。例如可以进行同步映射或异步映射。例如,可以采用通用映射规程(generic mapping procedure,GMP)或其他映射方式将第一类业务数据映射到业务帧。
本申请实施例对发送端将第二类业务数据(如第二业务数据)映射至业务帧的具体实现方式不进行限定,例如可以进行同步映射或异步映射。例如,可以采用GMP、通用 成帧规程(generic frame procedure-framing,GFP-F)、空闲映射规程(idle mapping procedure,IMP)或者其他映射方式将第二类业务数据映射到业务帧。
S305~S307:可以参考上述S105~S107。
S308:接收端根据ODU帧的净荷区与承载周期之间的对应关系,识别出承载周期。并从该承载周期中解析得到第一业务帧和第二业务帧。然后,对第一业务帧进行解映射,得到第一业务数据。对第二类业务数据进行解映射,得到第二业务数据。
具体地,接收端可以将一个承载周期中携带第一业务数据的支路端口标识的净荷块中映射的业务帧作为第一业务帧;或者将一个承载周期中位于第一信息所指示的位置的业务帧作为第一业务帧;或者根据与发送端所采用的同样的预定义算法(如sigma-delta算法等),确定该m个特定位置的净荷块的位置,从而将位于该位置的业务帧作为第一业务帧等。
具体地,接收端可以将一个承载周期中携带第二业务数据的支路端口标识的净荷块中映射的业务帧作为第二业务帧。
本实施例提供的技术方案的有益效果可以参考上述图6所示的实施例的有益效果。另外,本实施例提供的技术方案中,先将业务数据映射到业务帧中,再将业务帧映射到ODU帧的净荷区。这样,有助于对业务数据进行端到端管理,提高业务传送质量。
如图13所示,为本申请实施例提供的一种光传送网中的数据传输方法的交互示意图。本实施例中是以“混合传输多路第一类业务数据和多路第二类业务数据,且业务数据间接映射到ODU帧的净荷区”为例进行说明的。图13所示的方法包括如下步骤:
S401~S403:可以参考上述S201~S203。
S404:发送端将第三至第六业务数据均映射到业务帧,以及,将业务帧映射到ODU帧的净荷区。其中,不同路业务数据被映射到不同业务帧。
具体地,在每个承载周期中,发送端根据S403中所确定的固定位置图案,将承载第三业务数据的业务帧映射到该m1个特定位置的净荷块。将承载第四业务数据的业务帧映射到该m2个特定位置的净荷块。这两个步骤的执行顺序可以不分先后。
在每个承载周期中,发送端将每个承载第五业务数据或第六业务数据的业务帧映射到非特定位置的净荷块中未被占用的任意位置的净荷块。
S405~S407:可以参考上述S205~S207。
S408:接收端根据ODU帧的净荷区与承载周期之间的对应关系,识别出承载周期。并从该承载周期中解析得到业务帧,然后对业务帧进行解映射,得到第三至第六业务数据。
例如,接收端可以对一个承载周期中携带第三业务数据的支路端口标识的净荷块中映射的业务帧进行解映射,得到第三业务数据帧。接收端可以对一个承载周期中携带第四业务数据的支路端口标识的净荷块中映射的业务帧进行解映射,得到第四业务数据帧。
例如,接收端可以对一个承载周期中携带第五业务数据的支路端口标识的净荷块中映射的业务帧进行解映射,得到第五业务数据帧。接收端可以对一个承载周期中携带第六业务数据的支路端口标识的净荷块中映射的业务帧进行解映射,得到第六业务数据帧。
本实施例提供的技术方案的有益效果可以参考图8和图10所示的实施例的有益效果。
基于上文中所描述的任意一个实施例,可选地,发送端可以向接收端发送第二信息。第二信息用于指示一个承载周期中目标位置的净荷块在所述ODU帧的净荷区中的位置。 这样,接收端可基于第二信息确定该承载周期在ODU帧的净荷区中的起始位置,从而快速确定连续的承载周期边界。
其中,一个承载周期中的目标位置可以是发送端和接收端预先约定的位置。可选地,每个承载周期中的目标位置相同,当然不同承载周期中的目标位置也可以不同。为了便于实现,通常的实现方式可以为:每个承载周期中目标位置的净荷块均是该承载周期中的首个净荷块(或称为起始净荷块)。
可选地,第二信息携带在ODU帧所包括的OPU开销中或者ODU开销中,如携带在该目标位置的净荷块(如该首个净荷块)所在的ODU帧所包括的OPU开销或者ODU开销中。
在一种实现方式中,可以定义净荷块起始开销(payload block start,PBS)。PBS可以放置在当前的OPU开销区的任意保留位,且PBS所占的比特数可以根据需要指示的一个承载周期中的首个净荷块的可能的位置的总数量灵活设置。
例如,结合图3中所示的ODUk帧,PBS可以位于ODUk帧的第1行第15列的低6比特和16列的全部8个比特,共计14比特,如图14所示。图14中示意出了ODU帧#i~ODU帧#i+x(即第i个ODU帧至第i+x个ODU帧)的结构示意图,i和x均是大于或等于1的整数,图14是基于图3进行绘制的。在图14中,一个承载周期包括n个净荷块,且编号依次是#1~#n,1≤j≤n,j和n均是整数。图14中的虚线所示的箭头用于表示ODU帧#i中的PBS指示的是:ODU帧#i中编号为#1的净荷块在该ODU帧的净荷区的位置。
可以理解的是,14比特的PBS的取值范围可以表示成十进制数0~15232。在一个示例中,可以采用全0表示一个承载周期中的首个净荷块不在当前ODU帧的净荷区,采用1~15232分别表示一个承载周期中的首个净荷块在当前ODU帧净荷的第1~15232个字节。
上述主要从方法的角度对本申请实施例提供的方案进行了介绍。为了实现上述功能,其包含了执行各个功能相应的硬件结构和/或软件模块。本领域技术人员应该很容易意识到,结合本文中所公开的实施例描述的各示例的单元及算法步骤,本申请能够以硬件或硬件和计算机软件的结合形式来实现。某个功能究竟以硬件还是计算机软件驱动硬件的方式来执行,取决于技术方案的特定应用和设计约束条件。专业技术人员可以对每个特定的应用来使用不同方法来实现所描述的功能,但是这种实现不应认为超出本申请的范围。
本申请实施例可以根据上述方法示例对发送端或接收端进行功能模块的划分,例如可以对应各个功能划分各个功能模块,也可以将两个或两个以上的功能集成在一个处理模块中。上述集成的模块既可以采用硬件的形式实现,也可以采用软件功能模块的形式实现。需要说明的是,本申请实施例中对模块的划分是示意性的,仅仅为一种逻辑功能划分,实际实现时可以有另外的划分方式。

可选地,发送单元1502还用于发送第二信息。该信息用于指示多个连续的净荷块中的首个净荷块在ODU帧的净荷区中的位置。具体地,第二信息放置在OPU开销或ODU开销中。

可选地,第一类业务数据包括第三业务数据和第四业务数据。该情况下,处理单元1501具体用于:将第三业务数据映射到该多个连续的净荷块中的第一整数个特定位置的净荷块。以及,将第四业务数据映射到该多个连续的净荷块中的第二整数个特定位置的净荷块。例如,结合图9,处理单元1501具体用于执行S204中映射第三和第四业务数据的步骤。例如,结合图13,处理单元1501具体用于执行S404中映射第三和第四业务数据的步骤。
可选地,第二类业务数据包括第五业务数据和第六业务数据。该情况下,处理单元1501具体用于:按照第五业务数据与第六业务数据的优先级顺序,以及轮询方式中的至少一种,将第五业务数据和第六业务数据映射到该多个连续的净荷块中的除该特定位置的净荷块之外的任意位置的净荷块。例如,结合图9,处理单元1501具体用于执行S204中映射第五和第六业务数据的步骤。例如,结合图13,处理单元1501具体用于执行S404中映射第五和第六业务数据的步骤。
