Description

Number of Degraded Minutes (DMs).

A Degraded Minute is one in which the estimated error rate exceeds 1E-6 but does not exceed 1E-3 (see CCITT Specifications Volume III, Recommendation G.821).

Degraded Minutes are determined by collecting all of the Available Seconds, removing any Severely Errored Seconds, grouping the result in 60-second long groups, and counting a 60-second long group as degraded if the cumulative errors during the seconds present in the group exceed 1E-6. Available Seconds are merely those seconds which are not Unavailable Seconds (dsx1CurrentUASs).

Configuration

Not applicable.
