TransferJet PHYSICAL Layer(PHY) basics
This page on TransferJet physical layer(PHY) covers basic features of TransferJet physical layer and mention TransferJet PHY transmitter block diagram.
Physical layer works as per TransferJet frame structure defined in the specifications. The frame typically consists of preamble, sync and payload.
The following are the functions performed at TransferJet physical layer(TransferJet PHY).
• Insertion of preamble used for synchronization.
• Insertion of header(SYNC) used to provide useful data payload information such as length.
• It does forward error correction.
• It does spreading using direct sequence spread spectrum technique.
• It does scrambling operation.
• It does modulation of the scrambled data.

TransferJet physical layer(PHY) Transmitter

As shown in the figure-1, TransferJet physical layer consists of various modules as mentioned above. The data from upper layer(CNL layer) is broken into 224 byte blocks before being provided as input to the TransferJet PHY.
