19、ansmission system is expressed by several parameters, such as bit-error ratio (BER), jitter and acceptable input interruption. The BER is the most important parameter related to system transmission pedormance. Parameters other than the BER, for example, error-free seconds, are applicable to trans- m

22、ave transmission systems or sub-systems. The transmission parameters should normally be measured at interface points recom- mended by the CCITT (see l). In special cases when equipment specifications require measurements at other ports (e.9. between modulator input and demodulator output termi- nals

23、), interface circuits between the measuring equipment and the equipment under test may be necessary. 2 Bit error ratio 2.1 Definition and general considerations The bit-error-ratio, BER, is defined as follows (see 3) where: N, is the number of bit errors in a time interval 1, N, is the total number

24、of transmitted bits in a time interval 1, 8 is the bit-rate of the signal at the point where the measurement is made 1, is the measurement time interval in seconds (error-counting time) The BER is measured by comparing, bit by bit, the coincidence, or non-coincidence, of the transmitted and received

25、 bit streams. The arrangement for BER measurement is shown in figure 1. The comparison of the transmitted and received bit streams is made and the number of errored bits is counted. The preferred test signal to be applied to the equi ment under test is one having a pseudo- random pattern with a patt

26、ern length of either 2“-1 or 223-l. depending on the nominal bit-rate of the transmission system (see 4), but a selectable or programmable word pattern is sometimes used for testing the effect of specific patterns on the BER charac- te ris t i cs. 2 STD-BSI BS EN b0835-L-Li-ENGL 1997 I Lb2Libb9 ObLi

27、Li77b 795 = BS 7573 : Section 1.4 : 1993 Equation (3-1) can give an estimate of the error probability. The accuracy of this estimate increases as Ne increases, but the practical limitations of the measurement time interval usually set a limit to the value of Ne. Assuming a random distribution of err

28、ors independent of each other and with a constant probability, .e. according to Poissons law, the minimum acceptable value of Ne is approxi- mately 10. In this case, the true error probability is contained in a range equal to I50 % around Ne/N, with a confidence coefficient of 90 % (see 3). Dependin

29、g on the circuit configuration, for example high spectral efficiency systems, the distribution of errors may be structured. In such cases the minimum acceptable value of Ne should be correspondingly increased. The measurement time interval of the BER needs to be long enough to obtain the required ac

30、curacy. If a BER of n x lo- is to be measured on a bit-stream having a bit rate 8, the required measuring time to is given by: Ne x 10 nB to z (3-2) For example, assuming Ne = 10 and a BER of lo- is to be measured at 6,3 Mbitls, to shall be longer than 16 s. 2.2 Method of measurement The arrangement

31、 for the measurement of BER is shown in figure 1. The measuring instru- ment has a transmit portion comprising a pseudo-random test-pattern generator, a receive portion comprising an identical local reference-pattern generator and a comparator for comparing the received and locally generated referen

32、ce patterns. An error counter counts the errors whenever the received and locally generated bits are not identical, and the ratio of the errored bits to the total number of bits, .e. the BER, is displayed by the error counter. The bit rate of the test pattern is usually selectable to permit the gene

33、ration of the hierarchical bit rates given in l. However an external clock input is also usually available for generating non-hierarchical bit rates. The receive pattern generator is normally synchronized by the clock signal extracted from the incoming bit stream. A BER measure- ment range of at lea

34、st or lo- should be covered. The choice of the extreme values depends on the hardware configuration and on the digital rate. or to In making the test, the demodulator input should be connected and disconnected several times and the highest measured BER should be recorded. When there are two or more

35、baseband channels in the equipment under test, sufficiently uncorrelated pulse streams need to be applied to the channels and the measurements made one channel at a time. The BER is measured as a function of the specified receiver input conditions as described in the appropriate sections of parts 2

36、and 3 of IEC 835. 3 STDSBSI BS EN b0835-1-4-ENGL 1997 H LbZqbbS b1111777 821 D EN 60836-1-4 : 1995 issue 2, September 1997 2.3 Presentation of results The BER is expressed as a function of some appropriate parameter of the equipment being measured, such as receiver input level. 2.4 Details to be spe

37、cified The following items should be included, as required, in the detailed equipment speci- f cat ion: a) ports between which the measurement is to be made; b) main interface conditions. e.g. bit rate, level, impedance and coding of the signal; c) specified receiver input levels, as appropriate; d)

38、 type and length of the test pattern: e) limiting bit error ratio characteristic; f) measurement time interval or number of errors by measurement. 3 Additional parameters This clause describes residual bit-error ratio. Other additional parameters remain under consideration by other international org

39、anizations. 3.1 Residual bit-error ratio 3.1 .1 Definition and general considerations Residual bit-error ratio (RBER) for digital microwave radio transmission systems is an indispensable factor to guarantee the system performance. NOTE - The RBER is the error ratio in the absence of fading and inclu

40、des allowance for system-inherent errors, environmental and ageing effects and long-term intederence. The RBER should be measured with the equipment under test operating under normal conditions. An integration time should be chosen using a value given by equation (3-2) in 3.2. The BER measurements a

41、re carried out repeatedly with the fixed integration time and the RBER may be defined as the highest BER not exceeded in a specified percentage of integration intervals. The BER measurement period of one day may be appropriate. 3.1 -2 Method of measurement The RBER is obtained by taking BER measurem

42、ents (see clause 2) over a long period, e.g. 24 h. using a long integration time, e.g. 15 min. These examples are related for systems with a capacity of about 100 Mbit/s and an RBER of 1 x lo”*. In case of terrestrial radio-relay systems, the measurements should be carried out with long-term interfe

43、rence. if required, in the absence of fading (see IEC 835-2-10). In the case of satellite communication systems, a high carrier-to-noise ratio condition should be applied (see IEC 835-3-12). The measuring of the BER shall be recorded in order to obtain the highest BER not exceeded in a specified per

44、centage of integration intervals. It is advisable to record the power supply voltage and room temperature. etc at the same time as the BER, in order to identify any causes of error and to discard incorrect measurements produced by environmental effects which would not happen in a real link. 4 O BSI

48、rement time (e.g. 24 h). 4 Timing jitter 4.1 Definition and general considerations liming jitter is defined as the short-term deviation of the significant instants of a digital signal from their ideal positions in time. The jitter as a function of time can be charac- terized in terms of frequency an

49、d amplitude, as shown in the example of figure 2. Two types of jitter may be distinguished according to the jitter generating process: Justification jitter - which is caused by the insertion and extraction of justification bits in time-division multiplexing and de-multiplexing processes, and Timing jiffer - which is due to the imperfection of the timing recovery circuits in the regeneration process. Only timing jitter measurements are of importance for determining the performance of digital microwave radio transmission systems. Thr
