Patent

CA 2321513

A telecommunications system includes a convergence protocol that provides direct inter-layer communications between nodes within the network. The transport layer of one network node may communicate directly with the service layer of another network node. The service layer may be configured as an internet protocol (IP) layer, which may employ asynchronous transfer mode switching, and the transport layer may be a SONET transport layer. Each of the nodes that runs the convergence protocol may be a telecommunications element such as an add-drop-multiplexer (ADM) or a digital cross connect. SONET bandwidth provisioning may be accomplished through the inter-element, inter-layer communications of the convergence protocol.
