dc.description.abstractA Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) point-to-point bi-directional link was implemented at a base Synchronous Transfer Mode level 1 (STM 1) signal rate. The full STM-1 multiplexer was implemented and the functional code developed to Virtual Container level 4 (VC4) level. The implementation was realized using a Software Defined Radio (SDR) architecture that managed and linked the SDH atomic units into a STM-1 SDH multiplexing structure. These atomic units have been well defined in recommendation G.707 [1]. The functional description of each unit was based on the G.783 [8] recommendation which specifies a library of basic building blocks and set of rules by which these atomic functions should be combined into various functional layers. These layers interconnect to ultimately form a bi-directional path in the SDH network. A SDH Management Sub network (SMS) was implemented using a graphical user interface to perform a monitoring function for the bi-directional link.en_ZA
