DS1 A DS level and framing specification for synchronous digital streams, over circuits in the North American digital transmission hierarchy, at the T1 transmission rate of 1544000 bits per second (baud). In the US a DS1 "frame" is composed of 24 eight-bit bytes (commonly from 24 DS0 sources, originally digitised voice-grade telephone signals), plus one framing bit (193 bits). 8000 bytes per second come from each source, and thus 8000 frames per second are transported by the DS1 signal. The result is 193*8000 = 1,544,000 bits per second. In the original standard, the framing bits continuously repeated the sequence 110111001000, and such a 12-frame unit is called a super-frame. In voice telephony, errors are acceptable (early standards allowed as much as one frame in six to be missing entirely), so the least significant bit in two of the 24 streams was used for signaling between network equipments. This is called robbed-bit signaling. To promote error-free transmission, an alternative called the extended super-frame (ESF) of 24 frames was developed. In this standard, six of the 24 framing bits provide a six bit cyclic redundancy check (CRC-6), and six provide the actual framing. The other 12 form a virtual circuit of 4000 bits per second for use by the transmission equipment, for call progress signals such as busy, idle and ringing. DS1 signals using ESF equipment are nearly error-free, because the CRC detects errors and allows automatic re-routing of connections. Compare T-carrier systems.
