METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR INDICATING FAULT STATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18487877 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR INDICATING FAULT STATUS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a method and apparatus for indicating a fault status. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:
- A first device determines N alignment marker (AM) groups, where each AM group includes first indication information used to indicate a fault status of R receiving logical lanes of the first device. Each AM group also includes M pieces of alignment marker group lane (AMGL) information.
- In N periods, the first device sends M pieces of AMGL information constituting an iAM group to a second device over M transmitting logical lanes.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Fault detection and indication in communication systems.
- Monitoring and troubleshooting network connections.
- Identifying and resolving issues in data transmission.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficiently indicating fault status in a system with multiple logical lanes.
- Simplifying fault detection and troubleshooting processes.
- Enhancing the reliability and performance of communication systems.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved fault detection and identification.
- Faster troubleshooting and problem resolution.
- Enhanced system reliability and performance.
Original Abstract Submitted
Method and an apparatus are provided for indicating a fault status. The method includes: a first device determines N alignment marker AM groups, where the N AM groups include first indication information, the first indication information is used to indicate a fault status of R receiving logical lanes of the first device, and each of the N AM groups includes M pieces of alignment marker group lane AMGL information; and in an iperiod of N periods, the first device respectively sends M pieces of AMGL information constituting an iAM group to a second device over M transmitting logical lanes.
