Solution Overview

Problem

Current optical communication technologies lack a mapping method for 800GE services, and existing 400GE service mapping is complex, particularly due to the need for synchronous processing of 66-bit code blocks.

Innovation Solution

Perform code block-based interleaving sequentially on multiple code block streams and map the interleaved stream to a transmission frame, incorporating indication information to determine the code block location, thereby simplifying the mapping process and avoiding complex synchronous processing.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If code block-based interleaving is performed on multiple code block streams before mapping to transmission frame, then the mapping process is simplified and carrying efficiency is improved, but the device complexity increases due to the interleaving operation

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemapping process simplicityVSAvoidinterleaving processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by performing code block-based interleaving on multiple code block streams before mapping them to the transmission frame. This preliminary interleaving operation consolidates multiple streams into a single interleaved stream, which simplifies the subsequent mapping process and improves carrying efficiency, though it introduces complexity in the interleaving processing itself

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Productivity

If indication information is inserted into the transmission frame to determine code block location, then demapping speed is improved, but the transmission frame structure becomes more complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedemapping speedVSAvoidtransmission frame structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent uses indication information as an intermediary element inserted into the transmission frame to mark code block locations. This intermediary mechanism enables rapid demapping by providing direct location indicators, avoiding the need for complex synchronous processing, while the indication information itself adds a minor structural element to the frame

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Productivity

If 257-bit code blocks are used instead of 66-bit code blocks, then carrying efficiency is improved, but the synchronization processing complexity is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecarrying efficiencyVSAvoidsynchronous processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by transitioning from 66-bit code blocks to 257-bit code blocks. This parameter change increases the carrying efficiency significantly while reducing the need for complex synchronous processing, as the larger code block size allows for more efficient data transmission without requiring precise synchronization markers in every code block

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
