EWSD:An Introduction
y EWSD is the abbreviated form of German equivalent of Electronic

Switching System Digital (Electronische Wheler Systeme Digitale).

y EWSD has been designed and manufactured by M/s Siemens,Germany in

1981
y De Te We bought its first EWSD under license in 1985 for remote

switching.
y Bosch built its first EWSD as a local exchange in 1986. y In

2007, Nokia Corporation and Siemens AG formed the new company Nokia Siemens Networks, and responsibility of further development and shipments of the EWSD system is dependent on this new company.

EWSD:SYSTEM FEATURES
y Number of access lines:2,50,000 y Number of feeder lines:2,40,000 y Traffic connection:25,200 y Call attempts in busy hour(BHCA):10 million y Operating voltage:-48V

Digital Line Unit(DLU)

y It is a functional unit on which subscriber lines are

terminated.
y DLUs are connected to EWSD sub-systems via a uniform

interface standardized by CCITT i.e. PDC.

y One DLU is connected to two different LTGs for the reasons

of security via two 4 Mbps links.

y One DLU can carry traffic of 100 Erlangs.

Line and Trunk Group(LTG)

y The line/trunk groups (LTG) forms the interface between the digital

environment of an EWSD exchange and the switching network (SN).

y Maximum traffic handling capacity per LTG is 100 Erlang.

y Functions of LTG: Call Processing



Safeguarding Functions O&M Functions

SWITCHING NETWORKS
y Different peripheral units of EWSD, i.e., LTGs, CCNC, MB

are connected to the Switching Network (SN) .

y Through 8192 kbps highways called SDCs (Secondary

Digital Carriers), which have 128 channels each.

Co-ordination Processor
y Storage and administration of all programs, exchange and

sub-scriber data.
y Communication with operation and maintenance centres.

y Supervision of all subsystems, receipt of error messages,

alarm treatment, error messages.

How Line reaches from Subscriber to Exchange???

Conclusion..
y The use of EWSD switching system has further increased

the efficiency of this industry in telecommunication sector.

y The Siemens EWSD Switching System is well ahead of the

challenge with a uniquely flexible architecture that anticipates change and adapts easily.
