Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a method and apparatus for multiplexing traffic from a plurality of fixed bit rate sources over an ATM network. The traffic from the fixed bit rate users is multiplexed to form a TDM trunk group which is assembled into AAL2 minicells prior to being converted to ATM cells for transmission on the ATM network. By combining the fixed rate traffic sources into a TDM trunk group and then mapping the trunk group into AAL2 minicells, it is possible to improve efficiency of fixed bit rate traffic transmission using the ATM protocol.
