7、nce at bit rates between 0.050 and 3 168 kbit/s Keywords - digital error detector; - digital pattern generator; - error performance measurement; - measurement; - tester. PREAMBLE The requirements for the characteristics of error measuring equipment which are described below must be adhered to in ord
8、er to ensure compatibility between equipment produced by different manufacturers. While requirements are given for the equipment, the realization of the equipment configuration is not covered and should be given careful consideration by the designer and user. In particular, it is not required that a
9、ll features listed below shall be provided in one piece of equipment. Administrations may select those functions which correspond best to their applications. When selecting functions, administrations may also consider other Recommendations dealing with error measuring equipment, e.g. Recommendations
10、 0.151 17 and 0.152 HI. 1 General The equipment is designed to measure the error performance on circuits operating at bit rates as defined in Q 3. The measurement is based on the direct comparison of specified test patterns which are transmitted through the circuit under test, with identical pattern
11、s generated at the receive side. Synchronous and asynchronous operation shall be possible. 2 Test patterns The following test patterns are recommended (see also Recommendation 0.150 161). Note - The use of certain test patterns may be restricted to synchronous or asynchronous operation only. It shal
12、l be possible to transmit the patterns for an unlimited time. 2.1 511-bit pseudo-random test pattern This pattern is primarily intended for error measurements at bit rates up to 14.4 kbids (see 0 3.1). i The pattern may be generated in a nine-stage shift-register whose 5th and 9th stage outputs are
13、added in a modulo-two addition stage, and the result is fed back to the input of the first stage. The pattern begins with the first ONE of 9 consecutive ONES.

20、ion of the error pattern resulting from a bit-by-bit comparison. If the error pattern bas the same structure as the pseudo-random test pattern, the out-of- phase condition can be recognized. the bit error ratio is 2 0.20 during an integration interval of 1 second; or it can be unambiguously identifi
21、ed that the test pattern and the reference pattern are out of phase. This sub-section requires further study. 2 Recommendation 0.153 (10/92) CCITT RECMN*O*353 92 I 4862593 0579227 TL5 I 3 3.1 3.2 3.3 Bit rates The instrumentation shall provide for measurements at bit rate ranges as specified in the
