28、on Error Correction Mode (ECM) facsimile. ECM facsimile has been defined in Annex AIT.4 and Annex AiT.30. The error correction is based on half-duplex page selective repeat ARQ (automatic repeat request) technique. An HDLC frame structure is utilized for all binary coded facsimile message procedures

29、. The basic HDLC structure consists of a number of frames each of which is subdivided into a number of fields. These fields provide for frame labelling and error checking. A facsimile page is divided into Partial Pages (PPs)consisting of up to 256 Facsimile Coded Data (FCD) frames and three Return t

30、o Control Partial Page (RCP) frames. Each FCD frame has a frame number field as well as a Frame Check Sequence (FCS). Two options are recognized for the FCD frames: The Facsimile Data Field may have a length of either 256 or 64 Octets. The last PP may have less than 256 FCD frames and the last frame

31、 (including RTC) may have less than 256 or 64 octets. The choice of 256- or 64-octet frame size is made by the transmitter and communicated to the receiver via the DCS command (bit 28). The transmitter sends one of a set of PPS messages at the end of a Partial Page. When an errored frame is declared

32、 by the receiver, it transmits a Partial Page Request (PPR) to the transmitter to indicate that the frames specified in the associated facsimile information field need to be retransmitted. When the PPR is received, the transmitting station retransmits the requested frames. If the PPR is received fou

33、r times in the same block, either the End of Retransmission (EOR) for end of Retransmission or Continue to Correct (CTC) is sent for continuing the transmission. In the following clauses, the facsimile performance parameters for ECM facsimile are discussed. ECM facsimile performance can be used to d

34、erive an estimate of the image quality of non-ECM facsimile and we specify how this could be accomplished. 6 Frame size for ECM-based test calls Test calls for ECM facsimile can use either the 256- or 64-octet frame size. It is recommended that the 256-octet frame size be chosen if the test calls ar

35、e intended to evaluate: rn 256-octet ECM transmissions and/or; 0 error-free page image quality metric only for non-ECM facsimile (from ECM facsimile). The 256-octet choice means that 256 x 8 x 256 = 524 288 bits of facsimile coded data can be transmitted in one Partial Page or block. A Partial Page

36、of this size is sufficient to accommodate a T.22 Test Chart No. 4 (or the older T.21 Test Chart No. 2). This is helpful because ECM metrics defined in clause 9 b) and 9 c) closely correspond to the error-free page metrics defined in E.453 for non-ECM facsimile. The 64-octet frame size may be used if

37、 the intent is to evaluate: rn 64-octet ECM transmissions and/or; rn a more fine-grained assessment of Image quality metrics for non-ECM facsimile (from ECM facsimile) including an approximate evaluation of Severely Errored pages. 7 Facsimile call cut-off performance Recommendation E.45 1 defines pe

38、rformance parameters for facsimile call cut-Offs. Most of the definitions in clause 3E.451 apply to cut-off performance of ECM facsimile without any modifications and others require some modification: Recommendation E.454 (10/96) 3 a) A pre-message phase B failure is considered to have occurred if p

39、rior to the transmission of the first page, either the originating or the terminating facsimile terminal goes on-hook prior to the reception of CFR message by the originating terminal. A post-message phase B failure is considered to have occurred if a phase B failure occurs after the transmission of

40、 any Partial Page. A phase C/phase D failure at any Partial Page is considered to have occurred: b) if a valid post message response (MCF, PPR, CTR, ERR, RNR) is not received in response to PPS-NULL, PPS-EOM, PPS-MPS, PPS-EOP, PPS-PRI-Q; CTC, EOR- NULL, EOR-EOM, EOR-MPS, EOR-EOP, EOR-PRI-Q; RR, and

41、CRP; if the transmitter aborts the transmission after receiving PPR for the fourth time; if the timer T5 (which is reset at the beginning of the receipt of the first RNR from the receiver and has a limit of 60 f 5 s) elapses. Facsimile call cut-off ratios for test calls have been defined in Recommen

42、dation E.451. In clause 2E.45 1, the conditions that apply to test calls have been established. These conditions apply to test calls in the ECM mode also. The size of the ECM test transactions shall be the same as for non-ECM transactions as specified in Recommendation E.456. One key performance par

43、ameter for cut-off ratios defined in Recommendation E.45 1 is shown here: %CN = (%/T)*100 Where FN is the number of N-Partial Page test transactions ( Recommendation E.456) where there was a phase B, C or D failure, and T is the total number of test transactions that satisfy all the requirements sta

44、ted in clause 2E.45 1. (N is chosen to be 5 for the 256-octet frame size and 20 for the 64-octet frame size.) Facsimile cut-off ratios for m Partial Pages (1 I m 5 N) is: %c, = (F,/T)*oo Where F, is the number of transactions that had a phase B, C or D failure at the m Partial Page. Other metrics as

45、sociated with cut-Offs for ECM transmission follow the definitions in E.45 1. Note the following difference between the call cut-off performance of ECM and non-ECM transmissions. For ECM transmissions, the modems must train more often if there are PPRs and associated frame retransmissions. Therefore

46、, there are more chances for call cut-Offs if the network impairments are such that the training sequences are affected. 8 Performance parameters for modem speed reduction and transaction time for non-ECM transmissions have been defined in Recommendation E.452. There are some differences in the mann

47、er in which speed reductions take place for ECM transmissions when compared to non-ECM transmissions: Modem speed reductions and transaction time e For both ECM and non-ECM transmissions, speed reductions can take place during Phase B negotiations. In this case, speed reductions take place until a C

48、FR is transmitted by the receiver to the transmitter confirming that the TCF has been received at an acceptable error level. e For ECM transmissions, additional speed reductions can take place if four PPRs have been received in the same block and the transmitter chooses to fall back in speed. This i

49、s similar 4 Recommendation E.454 (10/96) STD-ITU-T RECMN E.454-ENGL Lb .I LlAb257L ObZb257 337 to but different from the speed fallback in non-ECM transmissions that may occur in response to RTP or RTN responses from the receiver. A key performance parameter is the percentage of calls without modem speed reduction from the initial agreed upon speed Si (see clause 1E.452): a) %CI =CI/TC*lOO where Tc is the total number of completed test calls. b) Partial Page based metrics can be defined by the number of Partial Pages at speed Sn(NsJ for Sn = Si, Si-1, Si-2, etc. This parameter
