3、rded announcements to the subscriber in certain phases of the call Set-up; - that in relation to the development of digital systems and new services, more specifications requiring sending tones and recorded announcements to the subscriber will be recommended and that Recommendation T/SF 14 4 propose

4、s extensive use of tones and announcements, recommends to the members of the CEPT, the use of the following names and meanings of tones and general designations of announcements.” 1. INTRODUCTION Tones with specific meanings and recorded verbal announcements are employed to give information to the u

5、ser of the network. When a user is carrying out a control operation, he should have adequate written instructions to help him to recognise tones. Due to the difficulties the user has in distinguishing a great variety of tones, only a limited number of tones can be used. In contrast, no such limitati

6、on need apply to the range of verbal information sent to the user in the form of announcements. Conversely, announce- ments may cause language problems, but tones will not do so. Each tone and recorded announcement transmitted from the network to the user is called, in a general sense, an audible in

7、dication. Silence is understood as the absence of an audible indication. Silence will be interpreted by the user: - as normal if he knows that he is to progress with dialling; - as abnormal or failure if, having completed dialling, the silence persists for a longer period than he Reference to the in

8、terpretation of silence is made in the specifications of the user/network control protocols concerned. accepts as normal before receiving some audible indication. 2. TONES The use of tones is attractive due to their low cost, the simplicity of the technical solution, and the avoidance of language pr

9、oblems. The characteristics of tones are defined by cadence, frequency and volume. Technical requirements relating to these characteristics and the generation of tones are specified in Recommendation Note: Audible characteristics of the tones are studied by Working Group SF.
