5、D Approval of an American National Standard requires review by ANSI that the requirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval have been met by the standards developer. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement

6、has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be made towards their resolution. The use of Americ

7、an National Standards is completely voluntary; their existence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he has approved the standards or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the standards. The American National Standard

8、s Institute does not develop standards and will in no circumstances give an interpretation of any American National Standard. Moreover, no person shall have the right or authority to issue an interpretation of an American National Standard in the name of the American National Standards Institute. Re

9、quests for interpretations should be addressed to the secretariat or sponsor whose name appears on the title page of this standard. CAUTION NOTICE: This American National Standard may be revised or withdrawn at any time. The procedures of the American National Standards Institute require that action

10、 be taken periodically to reaffirm, revise, or withdraw this standard. Purchasers of American National Standards may receive current information on all standards by calling or writing the American National Standards Institute.

NOTE Only that subset of these criteria specified for a given service shall be considered. 3.2.9 Request

13、 acknowledgment: A signal from a network in response to an access request, indicating the networks readiness to accept address information. 4 Functional reference model The performance parameters for circuit-switched digital connections shall be specified in terms of the reference model in Figure 1.

14、 End-to-end performance shall be specified from NI-to-NI with performance allocated for NI-to-INI and INI-to-INI. Since connections may or may not span multiple networks, INIs are shown within dashed lines. For intra-network connections (no INIs), end-to-end parameters apply. ATIS-0100507.2002 4 NOT

15、ES 1. The exchange-carrier switch or the interexchange carrier network may not be in the circuit. However, at least one switch must be in the network. 2. NI Network Interface 3. INI Inter-Network Interface: INIs are only present when the service is provided across multiple networks. Where a point of

16、 termination (POT) exists, it will coincide with an INI. 4. There is the possibility that each segment may be comprised of transport from several providers. T1.TR.51-1996 provides details of an alternate model that may be operational where transport is obtained from more than one provider in a segme

18、rements are performed without disturbing user information transmissions. The measurements may not be available to the service providers. 5.2 Measurement purposes The following measurements and tests are made to verify long-term service performance: ATIS-0100507.2002 5 a) Acceptance tests: These test

19、s verify that the value of performance parameters are within prescribed limits after completion of a new service installation. The measurements for these tests are performed on an out-of-service basis. b) Trouble verification tests: These tests verify the need for maintenance activity, in response t

20、o a trouble report. The measurements for these tests are performed on either an in-service or out-of-service basis. c) Repair verification tests: These tests verify that the values of the performance parameters are within prescribed limits after completion of a repair activity. The measurements for

21、these tests are generally performed on an out-of-service basis. d) Service monitoring: These measurements verify that the values of the performance parameters are within prescribed limits. These in-service measurements are performed on a continuous or periodic basis. e) Characterization measurements

22、: These measurements collect data for determining the performance of a specific population (defined by bit rate, facility, type, and other characteristics). These measurements are performed on either an in-service or out-of-service basis. 6 Performance parameters Circuit-switched digital services ar

23、e characterized by three phases: the access phase, the information transfer phase, and the disengagement phase. a) Access phase: The access phase includes all those activities that are required for the establishment of a switched digital connection. The access phase begins with an access request and

24、 ends with connection establishment. b) Information transfer phase: The information transfer phase begins at connection establishment and ends with a disengagement request. c) Disengagement phase: The disengagement phase includes all those activities that are required for the termination of a switch

25、ed digital connection. The disengagement phase begins with a disengagement request and ends when the network is ready to respond to a new user access request. Parameters are measured at the network interface and are described in terms of defined interface events. These parameters, being network-spec

26、ific, only describe network performance. 6.1 Access phase performance parameters The access phase performance parameters are defined in this subsection. Delay calculations are made only on successful events and exclude any user-dependent delay. The event sequences for these parameters are shown in F

27、igure 2. ATIS-0100507.2002 6 NOTE When the complete address is included with the Access Request, T1 and T3 are coincident. PARAMETER MEASUREMENTS The Request Acknowledgment Delay is (T2-T1). The Request Acknowledgment Delay may only be measured when the Request Acknowledgment signal/message is prese

28、nt. The Alerting Indicator Delay is (T6-T3). The Alerting Indicator Delay may only be measured when the Alerting Indicator signal/message is present. In cases where the Alerting Indicator is provided external to the network under measure, the time (T5-T4) shall be subtracted from the measured value.

29、 The Connection Establishment Delay is (T8-T3) (T7-T4). Figure 2 Access phase event sequence Following are the access phase performance parameters: a) Request acknowledgment delay: This parameter is the time between the transmission of an access request and the receipt of the request acknowledgment.

30、 NOTE In all cases where the addressing information is sent with the access request, request acknowledgment delay is not measured separately. b) Alerting indicator delay: This parameter is the time between the transmission of the complete address and the receipt of the alerting indicator. Since an a

31、lerting indicator is not always provided, this parameter is not always measurable.

33、tablishment, which may be indicated by a connection establishment signal. d) Incorrect access probability: This parameter is the ratio of the number of access attempts that result in incorrect access to total access attempts. Incorrect access occurs when a connection is established to a user other t

34、han the one intended. Incorrect addressing is excluded. e) Access denial probability: This parameter is the ratio of the total access phase attempts that are unsuccessful to the total number of access phase attempts. An access phase attempt is unsuccessful (access denial) when any of the following e

35、vents are observed: 1) The request acknowledgment delay exceeds S1 units of time; 2) The connection establishment delay exceeds S2 units of time; or 3) An indication of denied access is received. 6.2 Information transfer phase performance parameters 6.2.1 Parameter definitions a) Bit error ratio (BE

36、R): This parameter is the ratio of the number of bit errors to the total number or bits transmitted in a given time interval. Bit error ratio is used in this document to establish threshold values in defining performance parameters. b) Block error ratio (BLER): This parameter is the ratio of the blo

37、cks that contain at, least one bit in error to the total number of blocks transmitted in a given time interval. c) Errored unit of time measure: This parameter is the number or percent of errored units of time in a specified period. d) Severely errored unit of time measure: This parameter is the num

38、ber or percent of severely errored units of time in a specified period. e) Variation in mean one-way absolute delay: This parameter is the variation in one-way absolute delay between connections between the same end points, stated in terms of an interval of time. f) Premature disconnect probability:

39、 This parameter is the ratio of the number of premature disconnects (cut-offs) to the total number of successful accesses. g) Premature disconnect stimulus probability: The number of premature stimulus events per unit time over a specified period.

41、od (SEP) Severely errored period measure NOTE - Definitions for these events and parameters are found in T1.503-2002. 6.2.2.1 Single measurement period procedure This procedure is typically used in the design of trouble and repair verification tests. Performance determination for accuracy parameter

42、is based on the following relationships: a) Z number of intervals of length Q (on a single connection) are examined, where Z is an integer value and Q is an interval of time or a fixed number of bits corresponding to the event under consideration. b) For each interval Q examined, a determination is

43、made as to whether a threshold value W for the event has been exceeded, where W is a threshold of transmission bit or block errors over interval Q corresponding to the event under consideration. c) To determine the performance for the parameter under consideration, measure a total of Z intervals of

44、length Q and count the number of intervals where the number of transmission bit or block errors crosses the threshold W. The number of intervals counted is Y and the performance is the value Y/Z. Table 1 shows the relationship of the events to the intervals and thresholds. Table 1 Relationship of th

ATIS-0100507.2002 9 6.2.2.2 Multiple measurement period procedures These procedures shall be used for service monitoring and characterization measurements (i.e., service performance acceptability). Measurements are made for each of a number of continuous fixed-leng

48、th time intervals. Performance is specified in terms of the ratio of intervals having parameter values within the limits established for a single interval to the total number of intervals examined. This procedure is based on the following relationships: a) V number of intervals of length U are exami

49、ned, where V is an integer value and U is an interval of Z contiguous intervals of length Q or a fixed number of bits Z x Q, (if Q represents a fixed number of bits) corresponding to the parameter under consideration. b) For each interval U, a determination is made as to whether a threshold value L for the parameter has been exceeded, where L is a threshold value for the measurement Y. c) To determine the performance for the parameter under consideration, measure Y over a total of V intervals (each comprised of Z intervals of length Q) and count the number of intervals
