13、ASCICLE 111.4 89 = 4862591 0503765 T When method B cannot be used because it requires digital signal generators and analyzers, which certain Administrations do not yet possess, method C can be used provisionally looping of the digital ports, use of the terminals of auxiliary analogue channels (and p
14、ossibly group modulators), assumption of the additivity of impairments and deduction of the impairments at the terminals of the channels (and possibly modulators) previously measured. Method D corresponds in fact to four possible methods, depending on whether the emission of the test signal and its
15、detection takes place on the analogue side or the digital side. Methods E and F are used for crosstalk measurements. For the sake of the convenience and precision of the measurements, it is desirable that the regulation, when included in the transmultiplexer, can be blocked with a gain equal to unit
16、y. The specifications in $9 7 to 23 assume such blocking. 7 Attenuation distortion in the voice-frequency band as a function of frequency The measuring method is method A. The variation of the attenuation of each channel of a transmultiplexer as a function of frequency must remain within the limits

Note - When the transmultiplexer is used for satellite digital communication at the earth station the minimum value of the group propagation time in the audiofrequency band may be increased from 3 ms to 6.5 ms. In all other cases,
19、 the value of 3 ms should be complied with. 2001 400 600 1020 2000 2400 3000 3400 3600 4000 Hz 300 T161011Od9 Frequency (f) FIGURE 2E.792 Attenuation distortion mask as a function of the frequency to be observed for all channels of a transmultiplexer Fascicle III.4 - Rec.

22、 the transmultiplexer is applied to the digital input of the transmultiplexer, the psophometric noise measured over any channel at the digital output should not exceed -65 dBmOp. The measurement is conducted in the presence of pilots. 9.2 Channel noise, with all channels loaded except the one measur
23、ed The measuring method is method A. In this case an intermodulation measuring set-up using the white noise method is employed, as described in the Recommendation cited in 6. The level of emission of the noise signal being equal to the conventional load of the FDM signal considered (the Recommendati
24、on cited in 7: 3.3 dBmO for the group, 6.1 dBmO for the supergroup), the noise measured in any given measuring slot should not exceed -62.5 dBmOp (Le., -60 dBmO in a 3100 Hz band). The centre frequencies of the specified measuring slots (CCIT Recommendation G.230 8 and CCIR Recommendation 482 9) app
25、licable to the transmultiplexers are: - - This measurement is carried out without emitting pilots or out-of-band signalling. Note - Attention is drawn to the possibility of using a transmultiplexer on the interpolated side of a digital speech interpolation (DSI) device. Given an interpolation rate o
26、f 2, this would lead to conventional loads of 4.5 dBmO for TMUX-P and 7.3 dBmO for TMUX-S (see Table 2/G.223, 7). for the base group: 70 and 98 kHz for the base supergroup: 394 and 534 kHz. 578 Fascicle 111.4 - Rec. 6.792 CCITT FASCICLE 111.4 89 m 4862593 0503767 3 m 9.3 Single frequency noise outsi
27、de the band 300-3400 Hz The measuring method is B. When a PCM signal corresponding to amplitude O for the p-law and amplitude 1 for the A-law in all channels is applied to the digital input of the transmultiplexer, the noise over any frequency should not exceed -50 dBmO with the exception of the fre
28、quency of 80 Hz where it should not exceed -40 dBmO. 9.4 Idle noise in the PCM - FDM direction all channels idle The measuring method is method D. A PCM signal, amplitude O for the p-law and 1 for the A-law is applied at the digital inpuf of the transmultiplexer in all channels. The power of the noi
29、se measured at the analogue output in any channel must be less than -70 dBmOp. Note - White noise is assumed, and to take account of the psophometric weighting, the measurement can be made in a band of 1740 Hz, centred on the odd multiples of 2 kHz. The measurement may be difficult in certain channe
30、ls due to the presence of pilots. 10 Intermodulation The measuring method is method A. If two sine-wave signals of different frequencies fi and fi belonging to the band 300-3400 Hz of the channel considered, having no harmonic relation and of equivalent levels in the -4 to -21 dBmO range, are applie
31、d simultaneously to the analogue ports of the transmultiplexer, there should be no intermodulation product of the type 2J; - fi of a level higher than -35 dB with respect to the level of one of the two input signals. 11 Total distortion including quantizing distortion The measuring method is method
32、B (or provisionally method C). If method B is used, the test signal is generated digitally and is therefore affected by theoretical quantizing A choice between the two following methods is recommended: distortion. Method 1 The signal-to-total distortion ratio measured according to method 1 described
33、 in 0 8 of Recommenda- tion G.712 should respect the mask of Figure 4/G.792. The mask is to be complied with by all channels of the transmultiplexer. Method 2 With a sine-wave signal at a frequency between 700 and 1100 Hz or 350 and 550 Hz (e.g. 420 f 20 Hz) (except for submultiples of 8 kHz) being
34、applied in the channel concerned at the digital input of the transmulti- plexer, the ratio of signal-to-total distortion power, measured with appropriate noise weighting (see the Recom- . mendation cited in io), should be below the limits of the mask represented in Figure VG.792. The mask is to be c
35、omplied with by all the channels of the transmultiplexer. 12 In-band spurious signals The measuring method is method A. The transmultiplexers must meet the provisions of Recommendation G.712, 0 9. 13 Variation of gain with the input level The measuring method is method A, the pilots being present at
36、 the analogue input. With a sine-wave signal at a frequency between 700 and 1100 Hz (except for submultiples of 8 kHz) and a level between -55 and +3 dBmO being applied in the channel concerned at the analogue input of the transmultiplexer, the variation of gain with respect to its value for an inpu
37、t level of - 10 dBmO should remain between the limits of the mask shown in Figure 6/G.792. The mask is to be complied with by all channels of a transmultiplexer.

42、ossible configurations and four possible measurements (see Figure 7/G.792): far-end crosstalk digital to digital (see Note 1) near-end crosstalk digital to digital (see Note 1) far-end crosstalk analogue to analogue near-end crosstalk analogue to analogue 14.1 Intelligible crosstalk When a sine-wave
43、 signal between 700 and 1100 Hz and with a level of O dBmO is injected in any channel on the digital or analogue side of the transmultiplexer, the crosstalk ratio between the signal channel and any other channel must be greater than 65 dB for any of the four crosstalk contributions identified above
44、(see Note 2). 14.2 Unintelligible crosstalk When a conventional telephone signal according to Recommendation G.227 i i, is injected in any channel on the digital or analogue side of the transmultiplexer, at a level of O dBmO, the level of crosstalk measured in any other channel for any of the four c
45、rosstalk contributions identified above must be below -60 dBmOp (see Note 3). Note 1 - In this configuration, the two transmultiplexers are connected at the level of the analogue FDM signal and there will generally be a problem of level adaptation between the send and the receive sides. This can be
46、solved with the use of attenuators or amplifiers of appropriate gain. Attention must be given on the risk of introduction of additional crosstalk in these complementary devices. It should be desirable to include the level adaptation facilities in the transmultiplexer itself. r - 582 Fascicle 111.4 -
