FIG. 3 is an example of a configuration diagram of a (1 + N) uninterrupted line switching system. The general switching sequence of the hitless switching in FIG. 3 is as follows. That is, through the transmission line and the reception line switching control circuits 18 and 19, the failure of the working line causes
After confirming the presence or absence of the protection line failure and the use state of the protection line, the transmitting end parallel operation is performed. Next, at the receiving end, the faulty working line transmission signal 203 and the protection line transmission signal 204
(The transmission signals 203 and 204 are both equivalent to the transmission signal 201), and after the bit and signal phases are confirmed, switching (hitless switching) is performed, and the repair of the faulty line is completed.

In addition, a general switchback sequence is based on the restoration of the working line through the transmission / reception line switching control circuits 18 and 19, and the bit and phase of the working line transmission signal 203 and the protection line transmission signal 204 whose failure has been restored are recovered. After the comparison and confirmation, a switchback (hitless switching) is performed. Next, a pilot signal is transmitted to the protection channel by releasing the transmission end parallel. Pilot signal detection is performed at the receiving end, and switching back is completed. That is, the line switching system returns to a normal state.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram on the receiving end side of a conventional line switching system. The comparison and determination circuit 2 compares the working line transmission signal 102 with the protection line transmission signal 101 (when the working line fails, the transmission signals 101 and 102 are the same signal due to the sending end paralleling) on a bit-by-bit basis. A determination is made as to whether the bit and the phase of the signal and the protection line transmission signal 101 match, and a determination result 105 is output. The switching circuit 3 performs switching between the working line transmission signal 102 and the protection line transmission signal 101 without instantaneous interruption based on the determination result 105 and the switching control signal 103, and outputs the working line signal 104. Pilot signal detection circuit 1 detects whether protection channel transmission signal 101 is a pilot signal and outputs detection signal 106.

Here, high accuracy is required for the determination result of the comparison determination circuit 2 because the switching is performed without any bit error (hitless switching). For example, when “1” or “0” is continuous in a data string in data communication or the like and data of only a frame pulse is transmitted, a correct determination result cannot be obtained in a short bit comparison monitoring time. Further, in the above case, even if the bit error rate is degraded to about 1 × 10 −3, a correct judgment result must be obtained. Usually, in order to obtain a correct judgment result, the bit comparison monitoring time is lengthened to cope with the problem. Therefore, it takes a long time for the comparison and determination circuit to determine whether the bit and phase of the signal between the working and protection lines match.

On the other hand, since the pattern length of the signal used as the pilot signal can be relatively short, the pilot signal can be detected in a shorter time than the bit and phase coincidence determination time of the comparison / determination circuit 2.

In the conventional line switching apparatus described above, switching back of the switching circuit, release of the parallel connection at the transmitting end, and protection line transmission of the pilot signal are performed by the recovery of the failure of the working line. The switching system determines that it is in a normal state, that is, a state in which the next line can be switched.

However, the time required for the comparison and judgment circuit to detect a signal mismatch between the working and protection lines is longer than the detection time of the pilot signal. Therefore, when transmitting the pilot signal detection result, the comparison and judgment circuit still detects the signal mismatch. Not done. Immediately after the failure recovery, a failure occurs on the same working line,
When the sending-end parallel is performed again, the comparison and judgment circuit returns the judgment result that the bit and phase match at the time of switching back, even though the bit and phase of the signal between the working and protection lines do not actually match yet. Since they are held, line switching is performed. That is, line switching is performed in a state where the bit and phase of the signal between the working and protection lines do not match, so that there is a disadvantage that an error occurs at the time of switching.

Pilot signal detection circuit 1, comparison judgment circuit 2, switching circuit 3
Are the same as those shown in FIG. Delay circuit 4
Outputs a detection signal 107 after delaying the pilot signal detection result 106 by a certain time. In the present embodiment, by setting such a delay time, after the failure recovery of the working line, before the pilot signal detection result is transmitted from the protection line receiving end, the comparison and judgment circuit 2 causes the signal between the working and protection lines to be transmitted. Inconsistency can be detected. Therefore, when the failure of the working line is recovered, the working line switching circuit is switched back, the parallel connection of the transmitting end is released, the pilot signal is transmitted to the protection line, and the detection result of the pilot signal is sent from the protection line receiving end. When returning to the state, the comparison and judgment circuit 2
Detects a signal mismatch between the working and protection lines. That is, when the pilot signal detection result is transmitted from the protection line receiving end, the comparison and determination circuit 2 does not hold the determination result of the phase match at the time of switching back. As a result, even if a fault occurs on the same working line immediately after the recovery from the fault and parallel transmission is performed, line switching is not performed until the bit and phase of the signal between the working and protection lines match. .
Therefore, according to the present invention, the instantaneous interruption switching can be performed immediately after the restoration of the failure and also in a situation where a failure occurs in the same working line.

As described above, according to the present invention, by delaying the transmission of the pilot signal detection result, after the failure recovery, before the line switching system shifts to the next switching sequence, the comparison and judgment circuit always makes a signal between the working and protection lines. Can be detected immediately after recovery from a failure, even if the failure occurs on the same working line immediately before the bit and phase of the signal between the working and protection lines match. There is an effect that line switching can be performed without interruption without interruption.
