  • Patent number: 6879628
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for measuring the bit error ratio of a transmission system is provided, which can accurately report the degradation of the service quality of a line to an operator by accurate BER calculation under an exceptional situation where an excessive error is instantaneously generated. This is preferably accomplished by storing the number of bit errors in buffers at an interval of time T, scoping these buffers by a sliding window of a preset size, and judging whether or not an E-BER alarm is generated using the average number of bit errors of the scoped sliding window buffers. In addition, it is also possible to intermittently report an error repair situation under which an error is generated by scoping buffers by a sliding window of a set size and judging whether or not an E-BER alarm is cleared using the average number of errors of the scoped sliding window buffers, for thereby accurately and rapidly operating the system.

  • Patent number: 6829723
    Abstract: A method for controlling anomalous dual state of duplicated processors for a fault-tolerant system having a first and a second processors that are connected to each other through network, comprising: a first step of transmitting its own state information of either the first or the second processor to mutually another processor (twin) by using different transmission period to each other; a second step of receiving the heartbeat applied from the other processor and recognizing state information of the twin; and a third step of performing duplication states according to the state information of the twin. By doing that, when the two processors start, the seeds for random numbers are differently allocated to generate different random numbers, and the heartbeat transmission period is continuously changed by using the random numbers to differentiate the transmission and receiving time of the heartbeat between the two processors.
