The method comprises the steps of: receiving separate indications about the status of single tributaries, the indications comprising Normal State (NORM), Concatenated State (CONC), Loss of Pointer (LOP) and Alarm Indication Signal (AIS), processing, according to a pure combinatorial logic, the separate indications; and in case one of preset concatenation statuses is identified, such an identified current status of received flow of SDH/SONET frames is promptly declared or, in case no preset concatenation statuses are identified the tributaries are treated as stand alone. Differently from the prior art, the step of declaring a concatenation state is performed independently from a previously stored concatenation level. <IMAGE>", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "Access the complete Patent AT-E400934-T1: [Translated] IMPROVED POINTER PROCESSOR MANAGEMENT FOR CHAINED PAYLOAD IN SDH OR SONET FRAMEWORK on the official website.", "downloadURL": "https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/patent/AT-E400934-T1", "mediaType": "text/html", "title": "Official Data Source"}], "identifier": "https://healthdata.gov/api/views/9cqh-skyj", "issued": "2025-09-05", "keyword": ["patent", "chemistry", "pubchem", "innovation", "research"], "landingPage": "https://healthdata.gov/d/9cqh-skyj", "modified": "2025-09-06", "programCode": ["009:066"], "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI)"}, "theme": ["NIH"], "title": "Patent AT-E400934-T1: [Translated] IMPROVED POINTER PROCESSOR MANAGEMENT FOR CHAINED PAYLOAD IN SDH OR SONET FRAMEWORK"}
