5、ems Summary Recommendation ITU-T P.64 is mainly concerned with electro-acoustical measurements required for supplying sensitivity/frequency characteristics suitable for use in calculating loudness ratings, or estimating other subjectivity-determined quantities. For this purpose, measurements under r
6、eal conditions must form the basis. Artificial mouths and artificial ears must be used with due regard to obtaining good agreement between these measurements and those from real mouth and ear determinations. Measurements under real conditions are complicated, time-consuming and not reproducible with
7、 great precision. This Recommendation describes measurement methods using recommended forms of artificial mouths and artificial ears (see Recommendations ITU-T P.51 and P.57). This Recommendation applies mainly to local telephone systems (LTSs) with handset telephones; however, the principles also a
8、pply to other types of telephones. Annexes D and E define handset positions to be used with HATS according to P.58 and P.57 type 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 artificial ears. Allowance is given to placing the handset in a way which best represents its intended use. Annex F describes correspondence between measu
9、rements using the loudness rating guard-ring position (LRGP) and the head and torso simulator (HATS) position. Source Recommendation ITU-T P.64 was approved on 13 November 2007 by ITU-T Study Group 12 (2005-2008) under Recommendation ITU-T A.8 procedure. ii Rec. ITU-T P.64 (11/2007) FOREWORD The Int
10、ernational Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical,
11、operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in tur
12、n, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE

ITU-T P.64 (11/2007) 1 Recommendation ITU-T P.64 Determination of sensitivity/frequency characteristics of local telephone systems 1 Scope The sending, receiving or
26、sidetone sensitivity/frequency characteristic of a local telephone system (LTS) is usually measured directly. NOTE 1 The sending, receiving or sidetone sensitivity/frequency characteristic can also be calculated provided that the relevant information of the telephone line and feeding bridge is known
27、 Some of the information required for sidetone is outside the scope of existing Recommendations. NOTE 2 The same principles also apply to the measurement of microphones and earphones. Since electro-acoustical measurements of the type being considered may be required for different purposes, it is im
28、portant to distinguish the following: a) supplying the designer of a transducer with information concerning the success he has achieved in aiming at a given sensitivity/frequency response; b) checking that the manufactured product meets the specified requirements; c) supplying sensitivity/frequency
29、characteristics suitable for use in calculating loudness ratings or estimating other subjectivity-determined quantities. This Recommendation is mainly concerned with c), but the principle is also applicable to a) and b). For these purposes, especially for c), measurements under real conditions must
30、form the basis. Artificial mouths and artificial ears must be used with due regard to obtaining good agreement between these measurements and those from real mouth and ear determinations. Measurements under real conditions are complicated, time-consuming and not reproducible with great precision. Th
31、is Recommendation describes measurement methods using recommended forms of artificial mouths and artificial ears (see ITU-T P.51 and ITU-T P.57). This Recommendation applies mainly to LTSs with handset telephones. However, the principles also apply to other types of telephones. Specific consideratio
32、ns for headsets are described in ITU-T P.380 and, for loudspeaker telephones, ITU-T P.340. See ITU-T P.76 for general principles concerning the determination of loudness ratings. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this

41、 point in front of the mouth1, and the electrical output from the local telephone system or the microphone as the case may be. The input sound pressure cannot be measured simultaneously with the electrical output and therefore the measurement must be made in an indirect manner. The sound pressure at
42、 the reference point is measured in the absence of the handset and, with the artificial mouth source unchanged, the handset is placed in the defined _ 1The mouth reference point used in this Recommendation is defined in Annex A. Rec. ITU-T P.64 (11/2007) 3 position in front of the mouth and the outp
43、ut measured. When a human mouth and voice are used, the source cannot be relied upon to maintain its output constant between the measurement of free-field sound pressure and that of the electrical output from the microphone. Artificial mouths suffer from imperfect representation of the source impeda
44、nce and field distribution that applies to real mouths. In addition to providing the proper source conditions, it is necessary to ensure that the mouthpiece is located for every design of telephone handset at the position that would be used in the real situation. This can be achieved by locating the
45、 mouthpiece properly with respect to an ear reference point; this ensures that longer handsets are measured with a greater mouth-to-microphone distance than is the case for shorter handsets. The success of using a given handset measuring position for measurement of sensitivity/frequency characterist
46、ics can be judged only by making comparisons for handsets of different lengths, between real conversation test results using the artificial mouth and real mouths under suitably controlled measuring conditions. For this Recommendation, the telephone handset shall be located as defined in Annex C. The
47、 handset positions to be used with HATS according to ITU-T P.58 and type 3.3 and 3.4 pinna simulators are defined in Annexes D and E. Special problems are encountered when making measurements with real mouths and real voices, even under controlled talking conditions. Under such circumstances, the so
48、und pressure cannot be measured directly at the required mouth reference point and therefore it has to be measured at some other point and referred indirectly to the mouth reference point. Some previous determinations have made use of a measuring microphone 1 metre from the mouth but this requires a
49、nechoic surroundings and is affected by obstruction from the handset under test. Other methods have been also tried and none seem satisfactory so far. 5 Receiving sensitivities of the LTS The type 1 artificial ear (see ITU-T P.57 to be specified in b-IEC 60318-1) provides means for precise measurements of the receiving sensitivities of the LTS. However, the sound pressures measured with it do not always agree well with those existing at the ear reference point in real ears under the test conditions
