Abstract
A test device for Optical Transport Network (OTN) testing using MFAS-aligned pseudorandom binary sequence (PRBS) patterns is disclosed. The test device may comprise a signal generator to generate a test signal that comprises an MFAS-aligned PRBS pattern. The test device may also comprise a transmitter to transmit the test signal into an OTN and a receiver to receive the test signal from the OTN. The test device may comprise a processor to determine whether the received test signal matches the transmitted test signal based on the MFAS-aligned PRBS pattern. The test device employing a technique that uses an MFAS-aligned PRBS pattern may help ensure quality of service in OTN, especially for transmission of secured data.
