Abstract :
A leaky bucket counter is used to monitor link error rates and determine the necessity for link changeover in the message transfer part (MTP) of signalling system no.7. A methodology for dimensioning such a leaky bucket which is applicable to both uniformly distributed and bursty errors is presented.
