Operational Description
After that, starvation octets are passed to the Framer Transmit Interface until the “Port
Start of Structure” is detected. A “Port Start of Structure” occurs when the Framer
Transmit Interface requests the first time-slot octet belonging to the channel in the frame
or the multiframe.
From that moment on, the “ATM Start of Structure” and “Port Start of Structure” are
synchronous and the contents of the Reassembly Buffer are passed to the framer
transmit interface.
The worst case for buffer underflow is given, if the first cell has maximum positive CDV,
the contents of the pointer field is “0” and the “Port Start of Structure” occurs right after
the transmission of “starv_ini” + 1 starvation octets.

In this case the amount of starvation octets inserted after receipt of the first P format cell
has to be bigger than the amount of data transmitted during the expectation interval as
defined in (4). Otherwise the Reassembly Buffer will enter underflow condition at any
time a cell with maximum positive CDV is followed by a cell with maximum negative CDV.

The worst case for buffer overflow is given, if the first P format cell has maximum
negative CDV, the contents of the pointer field is at its maximum value Pmax and the
“Port Start of Structure” occurs right before the receipt of that P format cell. In that case
the complete frame needs to be stored in the Reassembly Buffer
