DIGITAL SWITCHING PRINCIPLES

Advanced Regional Telecom Training Centre, Ranchi

DIGITAL SWITCHING
The digital signals of several speech / datasamples are time multiplexed on a common media before being switched through the system. To connect any two subscribers, it is necessary to interconnect the time-slots of the two speech samples which may be on same or different PCM highways.

The digitalised speech samples are switched in two modes, viz., Time Switching and Space Switching.

SPACE SWITCHING
In the space-switching mode, corresponding time-slots of I/C and O/G PCM highways are interconnected. A sample, in a given time-slot, TSi of an I/C HWY, say HWY1, is switched to same timeslot, TSi of an O/G HWY, SAY HWY2. Obviously there is no delay in switching of the sample from one highway to another highway since the sample transfer takes place in the same time-slot of the PCM frame.

DIGITAL TIME SWITCH

A Digital Time Switch consists of two memories, viz., a speech or buffer memory to store the samples till destination time-slots arrive, and a control or connection or address memory to control the writing and reading of the samples in the buffer memory and directing them on to the appropriate time-slots.
