5、 telephone system to be taken into consideration during the busy hour(Recommendation G.223),recommends that1 The performance of frequency-division multiplex cable systems should be measured by means of a signalwith a continuous uniform spectrum in the frequency band used for the telephone channels.2

6、 The nominal power level of the uniform spectrum test signal should be in accordance with the conventionalload, specified in Recommendation G.223. If applied at the point of interconnection of the system corresponding to Tof Recommendation G.213, the absolute power levels of interest are shown in co

7、lumn 4 of Table 1/G.228.2.1 The sending equipment should be capable of providing, at the output of an inserted bandstop filter, a loadinglevel at least up to + 10 dB relative to the nominal power level defined above.2.2 Within the bandwidth corresponding to the baseband of the system under test, the

8、 r.m.s. voltage of the whitenoise spectrum measured in a band of about 2 kHz should not vary by more than 0.5 dB. This degree of spectrumuniformity should be met in the level range up to +6 dB relative to the nominal power level, indicated inTable 1/G.228, column 4.2.3 The white noise test signal sh

10、al filters) and tolerances for the bandpass filtersproposed for the various bandwidths of systems to be tested, should be as specified in Table 2/G.228. To reduce thenumber of filters required, compromises have been made between the nominal effective cut-off frequency and thesystem bandwidth-limitin

The tolerances ensure that consequent calibration errors do notexceed 0.1 dB and errors in measurement of intermodulation noise do not exceed 0.2 dB assuming system pre-emphasis of about 10 dB.2 Fascicle III.2 - Rec.

The discrimination of a highpass filtershould be at l

15、 Values of the characteristics for the discrimination in each stop-band at the output of a sending equipment aregiven in Table 3/G.228. These characteristics are intended to apply over a temperature range from 10 C to 40 C.5 When the receiving equipment is connected directly to a sending equipment p

The minimum effective bandwidth of the receiver should be1.7 kHz; the maximum reading of absolute noise power arising from leakage given by a receiver of 1.74 kHz effectivebandwidth and which just meets the foregoing leakage requirement is -85.6 dBm0p.6 Additional measuring cha

21、mmended for the filters 70 kHz to 2438 kHz inclusive are based on coil-capacitor type filters.Those characteristics recommended for the filters at 5340 kHz and above are based on crystal-type filters. Optionalcharacteristics are recommended for the 3886-kHz filter to permit a choice of design betwee

22、n a coil-capacitor type or crystal-type filter. The crystal-type filters at 35 748 kHz and 55 548 kHz are assumed to be operating in a higher harmonic mode of thecrystal resonators. That is why the relative bandwidths of these filters show a discontinuity compared with the crystal-typefilters up to

23、11 700 kHz.4 Fascicle III.2 - Rec. G.228Note 2 - The discrimination values quoted are relative referred to the minimum attenuation of the bandstop filters within thebaseband frequency range defined by highpass and lowpass filters in Table 2/G.228. This implies that a bandstop filter suitablefor meas

24、urements on one system is not necessarily suitable for measurements on a system of larger bandwidth.Note 3 - The design of the receiver selectivity of 3886 kHz should be related to the characteristic of the crystal-type bandstopfilter.Note 4 - Due to spurious resonances, narrow spikes of the discrim

25、ination may occur in the upper passband of crystal-type bandstopfilters. When resonators are operated in a higher harmonic mode narrow spikes can also appear in the lower passband. Thosespikes of about 10-dB peak attenuation within 1 to 5 kHz bandwidth are admissible because they do not affect the m

39、t noise in systems artificially loaded with uniformspectrum random noise simulating FDM telephone signals were agreed after carefully coordinated studies by three CCIStudy Groups concerned. The different Recommendations provided for the application of the white noise measuringmethod to cable systems

40、 (CCITT Recommendation G.228), radio-relay systems (CCIR Recommendation 399 1),satellite systems (CCIR Recommendation 482 2) and translating equipments (CCITT Recommendation G.230). Theobjective of the coordination was that the separately recommended measuring equipments should conform withcommon me

41、asuring accuracy objectives and, as far as possible, be compatible and interchangeable.The overall accuracy objective of the measuring equipment when used for routine maintenance measurementsis 2 dB. A higher accuracy of about 1 dB is desirable when measurements are made for the purpose of assessing

42、 thenoise performance of a system in relation to required performance. This can be achieved by following certainprocedures and applying corrections as described in B.4 and B.5 below.This Annex states how certain characteristics of measuring equipments were related to measuring accuracyobjectives; an

43、y future extensions of the Recommendations to provide for measurements on new transmission systems,as yet unstandardized, should take account of those relationships.B.2 Bandstop fillersB.2.1 Choice of centre frequenciesIn all cases the choice of nominal centre frequencies of band-elimination filters

44、 (i.e. of measuring channels)should take account of the need to minimize the combined discrimination of the pair of bandpass filters used when theFascicle III.2 - Rec. G.228 9bandstop filter provides a lower or upper measuring channel. Therefore, as a rule the centre frequency of a lowermeasuring ch

45、annel should be at least 15% above the effective cut-off frequency of the highpass filter and the centrefrequency of an upper measuring channel should be more than approximately 5% below the cut-off frequency of thelowpass filter involved. Under 3.2 of the text of this Recommendation it is prescribe

46、d that “the spread of lossesintroduced by any pair of highpass and lowpass filters should not exceed 0.2 dB over a range of frequencies whichincludes the outer measuring channels“.B.2.2 LeakageThe discrimination of a bandstop filter in the neighbourhood of the centre frequency determines, jointly wi

47、ththe receiver selectivity the smallest noise-to-signal ratio that can be measured accurately, i.e. the “leakage“ effect. Thebandstop filter discrimination of 70 dB (Table 3/G.228) results in a ratio of the order of -67 dB-being measured whenthe noise is actually negligible. Leakage effect in the re

48、ceiver is adequately limited by requiring (see 5 in the text ofthe Recommendation) that the NPR value should be a minimum of 67 dB when connected directly to a send equipmentwith bandstop filters which only just meet the discrimination requirements of Table 3/G.228 and when a conventionalload of -15

49、 dBm0/4 kHz is applied.Note - According to Formula (A-2) of Annex A this value of NPR = 67 dB corresponds to a residual noiselevel of -85.6 dBm0p (i.e. 2.8 pW0p) at the most.B.2.3 Effective bandwidthThe basic requirement for the stopband is the condition that the discrimination should be at least 70 dB in abandwidth of at least 3 kHz. The effective bandwidths (
