There are two options

11、in T.30 for V.34 fax over the PSTN. These are described in Annexes C and F of T.30. At present no known implementations use Annex UT.30; they use either Annex F/T.30 or some other proprietary method.

12、ource ITU-T Recommendation E.460 was prepared by ITU-T Study Group 2 (1997-2000) and was approved under the WTSC Resolution No. 1 procedure on 13 March 2000. Recommendation E.460 (03/2000) 1 FOREWORD ITU (International Telecommunication Union) is the United Nations Specialized Agency in the field of

13、 telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of the ITU. The ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The

14、 World Telecommunication Standardization Conference (WTSC), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T Study Groups which, in their turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of Recommendations by the Members of the ITU-T is covered by the procedure

15、laid down in WTSC Resolution No. 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with IS0 and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a teleco

16、mmunication administration and a recognized operating agency. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS The ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. The ITU takes no position concerning the evid

17、ence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, the ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, whi

18、ch may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementors are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database. o ITU 2000 All rights reserved.

It is possible to map many of the measurements and metrics fiom E.459 onto monitoring of V.34 fax. The important differenc

22、es between normal G3 fax and T.30 Annex F are: o error correction mode is mandatory; Annex F/T.30 uses the half duplex mode defined in V.34; the handshaking is performed over the duplex control channel defined in V.34; the transmission rate of the high speed image phase and the control channel hands

In order to measure the performance of a V.34 fax call, it will be necessary to monitor and decode theV.8 start-up and the V.34 control channel. The V

25、.8 information is transmitted using V.21 modulation. The V.34 control channel is transmitted using 1200 or 2400 bih QAM. The rates may be asymmetric. This Recommendation assumes that it is possible to reliably extract information rom the control channel. The rest of this Recommendation suggests meas

26、urements and metrics appropriate for T.30 Annex F fax. Where possible they correspond to those already defined in E.459. Only protocol related measurements are described. Many of the image, analogue and signalling related call data measurements described in Annexes A, B and C of E.459 are also relev
