Abstract From the Canadian patent

A logical machine for processing Synchronous Transport Module (STM) frames STM-4c transmitted according to the Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) protocol. Each frame STM-4c carries data information and control information which includes a pointer information and concatenation informations. The pointer information indicates the start location of the data information in the frame and the concatenation informations indicate the structure of this data information. The logical machine is relatively simple since it operates according to a single state diagram in function of a single word comprising both the pointer information and the concatenation informations of a same frame.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed December 23, 1992 and granted February 6, 2001. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended December 23, 2012.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by December 23, 2014.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
