Abstract :
There has been growing interest in transmitting synchronization information over OTN. A novel scheme is proposed in the paper for this purpose. In order to support precise time synchronization information transfer over OTN, the proposed scheme designs the new overhead, equipment function architectures and interworking mechanism of synchronization message for OTN.
