46、neral Approach 1 4.1 Background 2 In case of mobile-to-mobile calls (MS-MS calls) in mobile networks without TFO, the speech signal is encoded within the 3 first mobile station for transmission on the air interface, and decoded within the associated first TRAU. The PCM samples 4 are then transported

47、 within the fixed part of the network to the second TRAU using 64kbps traffic links. This second TRAU 5 encodes the speech signal a second time for the transmission on the second air interface, and the associated second mobile 6 station decodes it again. The two Codecs (Encoder-Decoder pair) of the

48、connection are in “Tandem Operation“. 7 8 Tandem Free Operation overcomes the disadvantage of degraded speech quality caused by the two consecutive 9 encoding/decoding processes required in Tandem Operation. 10 11 Tandem Free Operation requires a bi-directional “transparent“ digital channel or path

49、between the TRAUs. Devices within 12 these paths need to be transparent or to be switched off for the TFO Messages and the TFO Frames. To guarantee this 13 digital transparency with out-of-band signaling is not trivial. In particular, out-of-band signaling has insufficient speed to fall 14 back to normal operation in case of sudden interruption of the transparency of the links. 15 16 This TFO recommendation defines therefore an inband signaling protocol, which 17 tests if: 18 an MS-MS call is given; 19 the paths between the TRAUs are digitally transp
