3、rnational sound-programme circuit meets the CCITTRecommendations, noise measurements are made.These should consist of the weighted noise reading using a meter and network conforming toRecommendation O.41 10 or CCIR Recommendation 468 11 or a combination of these.The noise limits given in the tables

4、of this Recommendation are for circuits of 840 km maximum length. Forlonger circuits appropriate limits may be calculated from the formula given in CCIR Recommendation 605 2.3.4 Measurement of nonlinearity distortionFor circuits routed entirely on audio pairs and not equipped with pre-emphasis equip

5、ment the nonlinearitydistortion is measured at the end of the international sound-programme circuit by sending, for a few seconds, asinusoidal signal at an appropriate frequency in the band to be transmitted at a level of +9 dBm0._3)Administrations are invited to propose measuring frequencies for 5

6、kHz circuits, 7 kHz circuits, and 15 kHz circuits. ISOstandard No. 266 9 should be taken into account.Fascicle IV.3 - Rec. N.21 3For a circuit which includes at least one carrier section no measurement of nonlinearity distortion should bemade. However, if, in very exceptional cases, it should be ess

7、ential, in order to provide service on such a circuit, tocarry out a check of nonlinearity distortion, for example, to locate a fault, the frequency of the sent signal should notexceed 1020 Hz at +9 dBm0 and the period for which the tone is connected should be as short as possible - that is, notmore

8、 than about four seconds. However the best procedure would be to use a suitable automatic measuring equipmentif such is available (see Recommendation O.31 3, 4, 5).The total harmonic-distortion coefficient for the sound-programme hypothetical reference-circuit (2500 km)must not exceed 4% (harmonic m

9、argin 28 dB) at any frequency4)within the transmitted band. For shorter and for lesscomplex circuits, the distortion should be less.Moreover, since end-to-end measurements of nonlinearity distortion on circuits routed on carrier systemsmight give rise to serious disturbance to transmission on other

10、channels, especially if the group is transmitted on atransistorized carrier system, it is permitted to make only local measurements of non-linearity distortion on terminalmodulating and demodulating equipments. For example, a sound-programme circuit modulating and demodulatingequipment could be conn

11、ected back-to-back via a suitable network (and suitable amplifiers if necessary) and themeasurement made on the resulting complete assembly.3.5 Additional mesurementsIn addition to the measurements specified above, the following parameters may be measured at the discretionof the Administrations conc

Such measurements may be particularly useful when a faulty condition is suspected.3.5.1 Interference caused by power supply sourcesWhen a sinusoidal test signal is transmitted over a sound-programme circuit at a level of 0 dBmO the level ofthe strongest unwanted modulation component should no

To exclude the effect of random noise, selective measurement is needed._4)The European Broadcasting Union has stated that many of its me

16、mbers have expressed the opinion that for a circuit 1500 kmlong, acceptable limits for nonlinearity distortion would be:40 dB at fundamental frequencies above 100 Hz,34 dB at fundamental frequencies of 100 Hz and below.4 Fascicle IV.3 - Rec.

17、 pairsThe quality criteria given refer to those of Recommendations O.32 4 and O.33 5. The limits can be easilymeasured with the aid of such equipments. If other measuring means are used, attention is drawn to the fact that thefrequencies of 10, 11.92 and 14 kHz should be avoided because of possible

18、stop filters which may be inserted in thetransmission equipment concerned for reducing carrier leaks.Fascicle IV.3 - Rec.
