5、standard pilot-carrier level of -20 dB for example in the United States of America it is commonly 35 Hz while in the United Kingdom it is 70 Hz and receivers used in the Netherlands, France and Japan have intermediate bandwidths. The minimum usable speech-to-noise ratio depends on the type of termin

6、al equipment used. For conventional terminals under stable circuit conditions a value of 15 dB corresponds to marginally commercial quality (see Recommendation 339). If these conditions and the foregoing ratio are assumed, the corresponding carrier-to-noise ratio can be calculated by taking into acc

7、ount the respective bandwidths of the speech and carrier channel and the mean speech level relative to p.e.p. Although the latter varies among Administrations, as well as the carrier filter noise bandwidth, such a calculation shows that, in the absence of selective fading, a carrier level of -26 dB

8、relative to p.e.p. should be adequate to ensure that the automatic frequency control is not noticeably disturbed by noise before the speech channel of a conventional circuit becomes uncommercial. * The Administration .of Pakistan reserved its opinion on this Recommendation.

10、 ratio is increased by 10 dB some 5% improvement in commercial channel hours is nevertheless realized. . .- 2. Channels with Lincompex terminals In a Lincompex system, there is a possibility of inadequate signal-to-noise ratio in the speech channel, in the pilot carrier channel and/or in the control

11、 signal channel. The control signal channel has a bandwidth of 200 Hz and the speech bandwidth is correspondingly reduced from the usual 2750 Hz of a conventional circuit to 2450 Hz to accommodate both the speech and control signals below 3 kHz (in accordance with Recommenda- tion 455). High noise .

12、in the control channel causes the circuit loss to fluctuate. This imparts a subjective “gritty” quality to the speech. The effect becomes excessive for control channel signal-ta-noise ratios less than about 14 dB. A speech-to-noise ratio of 7 dB has been found to represent just marginally commercial

13、 quality, taking into account the compandor improvement (see Note 3 to Table I of Recommendation 339). It can be calculated that the minimum usable signal-to-noise ratios occur approximately together in the speech channel, the control signal channel and the carrier channel. Thus the protection affor

14、ded to the carrier is commensurate with that of the control channel if selective fading is ignored. Nevertheless, the importance of the carrier in controlling the gain stability of up to four channels would appear to demand a- higher signal-to-noise ratio, since in the Lincompex system gain stabilit

15、y is .directly related to the performance of the automatic frequency confrol system. 3. Multichannel telegraph systems The failure of a radiotelegraph channel equipped with automatic error-control facilities is not rigidly definable since it depends on the circuit efficiency that can be tolerated. A

16、t low values of circuit efficiency undetected character errors increase significantly and, for this reason, low efficiency circuits are unsuitable for telex operation. For other types of telegraph traffic, however, circuit efficiencies as low as 20% to 30% may be considered tolerable in certain circ

17、umstances. However, for the purpose of this assessment, a circuit efficiency of 50% is taken as the failure point. For a dual-diversity system working typical radio conditions, this corresponds to a median signal-to-noise ratio of approximately 8 dB in the telegraph channel, which, in a typical 100-

18、baud system, has a bandwidth of 140 Hz. According to Recommendation 326, it is typical of present practice that the mean power of each channel of a multi-channel telegraph system (class of emission R7B or B7B) be given by p.e.p./4n, when n 4. Thus for a representative number of channels (say 4 n lo)

19、, the power in a given telegraph channel will exceed that of a pilot-carrier of -26 dB relative to p.e.p. by at least 10 dB. But the carrier channel has an advantage with respect to noise bandwidth of only 3 to 6 dB since the ratio of the telegraph channel bandwidth to the carrier channel bandwidth

20、is typically in range 2 to 4 (corresponding to a bandwidth range of 70 to 35 Hz). Therefore it is evident that the carrier channel will be at a net disadvantage and that a pilot carrier level of -26 dB relative to p.e.p. is inadequate over a wide range of circumstances to ensure reliable action of t

21、he automatic frequency control down to the failure point of the telegraph system. The foregoing discussion makes no allowance for selective fading. It may be noted that in general the telegraph channels ordinarily derive substantial benefit from either space or frequency diversity while the carrier channel does not.
