29、e.theinterface points are not accessible. This is why some processing functions, such as differential coding/decoding, series-parallel conversionetc., may be considered as part of the modulator/demodulator. Consequently, the measurements carried out on the transmit- and receive-signal processing sub

30、-systems in closed loop do not take into account the performance of the individual parts of the signal processor inside the modulator and the demodulator, while the measurements carried out on the complete system take into account the performances of the radio part of the system. In the following cl

31、auses, measurements on the signal processor in its general configuration, i.e.,with multiplex facilities, are described. In the case of some types of signal processing (e.g.without multiplex facilities) performed inside the modulator/demodulator, most of the following measurements do not apply. Type

32、 and acceptance tests are grouped into three parts: measurements on the transmit-signal processor are presented in clause3; measurements on the receive-signal processor are presented in clause4; measurements on the back-to-back connected transmitter-receiver systems are presented in clause5. The mea

33、surements are normally taken at each input/output port, while the unused input ports are supplied by pseudo-random bit-stream (PRBS) signals, and the unused output ports are terminated with their nominal impedances. 1 Scope This section deals with the methods of measurement on a digital radio signal

34、 processing sub-system. The digital signal processing sub-system is, in general, able to perform the following principal functions: multiplexing of two or more bit streams (seeIEC835-2-9, “Service Channels”, Figure 1); transmission quality evaluation for switching purposes and/or alarm indicating si

35、gnal (AIS) insertion; coding and multiplexing of digital service channels, (seenote); scrambling and descrambling; series-to-parallel and parallel-to-series conversion. System configurations differ, so some of the above functions may be missing, in which case only the measurements relating to those

36、functions present should be taken into consideration. In digital radio-relay systems, many system configurations exist where non-hierarchical bit rates are used. In such cases, multiplex equipment is used in order to transmit more than one hierarchical bit stream and/or additional service channels (

37、e.g.34Mbit/s and140Mbit/s with bit insertion for parity bits and digital service channels,2 34Mbit/s,etc). For low bit rate systems, e.g.2Mbit/s it may not be practicable to perform tests at very low BERs because of the excessively long measurement times involved. Additionally, in many cases parity

38、bits are transmitted for quality control and switching purposes. However, as far as possible, the system should be tested at defined interface points such as those considered by the CCITT Recommendation G.703. NOTEDigital service channels are dealt with in IEC835-2-9. 2 Normative references The foll

44、he incoming signal and to the correct working of the processor itself. The alarm signals are, in general, used by switching equipment and/or an AIS generator. The time to initiate and to restore the alarm may be of particular importance in the complete radio system. Below, two alarms are considered.

45、 One alarm is activated by the loss of the signal at the input of the sub-system. The other alarm is controlled by the elastic store of the sub-system in the justification process. 3.2.2 Method of measurement 3.2.2.1 Loss-of-signal alarm An example of a test arrangement is shown in Figure 1. The equ

46、ipment under test is driven, via a switch, by a pattern generator supplying a PRBS at a nominal bit rate with a defined length pattern (seeCCITT RecommendationG.703). The alarm signal is displayed on an oscilloscope. By driving the switch with a low frequency (l.f.) pulse generator, it is possible t

47、o drive repeatedly the sub-system into the alarm condition, and to restore the normal condition while displaying the operate and release alarm signal on an oscilloscope. When driving the switch by a single-shot signal, it may be necessary to use a storage oscilloscope to display the result of the me

48、asurement. 3.2.2.2 Overflow alarm The measurement is made by filling the elastic store as quickly as possible in order to drive the sub-system into the alarm condition, and then measuring the time interval taken to give the alarm. This can be performed by driving the transmit-signal processor with a

49、 jittered PRBS signal with greater than maximum tolerable jitter. An example of a test arrangement is given in Figure 2. The equipment under test is driven by a jitter generator. In order to use an oscilloscope without storage, it may be convenient to drive the equipment under test periodically into the alarm condition using a l.f. pulse generator. To determine the time interval needed to initiate the alarm, it is necessary to refer to the tolerable input jitter measurement of the equipment under test. Let
