"Synchronous Digital Hierarchy Engineering"
Synchronous Digital Hierarchy Engineering is a comprehensive, technically rigorous guide that delves into the foundational principles, standards, and practical implementation aspects of SDH networks. The book begins by tracing the evolution from Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy (PDH) to SDH, providing a clear understanding of why SDH emerged as the backbone of global telecommunications. It systematically unpacks the critical international standards, architectural nuances, and interoperability requirements, skillfully differentiating SDH from related protocols such as SONET, while mapping out the full landscape of synchronous multiplexing and digital network engineering.
The text transitions seamlessly from theory to applied engineering, covering physical infrastructure elements—including multiplexers, cross-connects, and optical transmission equipment—and exploring the intricate details of SDH frame structures, overhead, payload mapping, and synchronization. Readers are equipped with advanced strategies for network design, resiliency, quality of service, and traffic management, supported by practical case studies and real-world deployment scenarios. Throughout, the book addresses the complexities of modern multi-service transport, packet adaptation, and integration with next-generation platforms such as WDM, OTN, and SDN.
Crucially, Synchronous Digital Hierarchy Engineering goes beyond traditional textbooks by tackling contemporary challenges in SDH security, reliability, operations, testing, and sustainability. Comprehensive chapters on operations, administration and maintenance (OAM), performance assurance, fault management, and regulatory compliance ensure that engineers and network architects receive the practical insights needed for robust, scalable, and future-proof SDH deployments. With forward-looking discussions on automation, AI, migration strategies, energy efficiency, and open research challenges, this book stands as an essential reference for professionals, researchers, and students navigating the dynamic field of digital transport networks.
