2、 0.22 CCITT RECMN*0*22 72 4862573 0577432 3bT FOREWORD The CCIT (the International Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee) is a permanent organ of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). CCITT is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommen

3、dations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The Plenary Assembly of CCIT which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study and approves Recommendations prepared by its Study Groups. The approval of Recommendations by the members of CCITT between

4、 Plenary Assemblies is covered by the procedure laid down in CCIn Resolution No. 2 (Melbourne, 1988). Recommendation 0.22 was revised by Study Group IV and was approved under the Resolution No. 2 procedure on the 5th of October 1992. CC NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration” is

CCITT RECMN*0-22 92 m 4db259L 0577433 2Tb m Recommendation 0.ZZ1) CCIT AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION MEASURING AND SIGNALLING TESTING EQUIPMENT ATME No. 2 (published 1972; revised 1980, 1984, I988 and 1992) Abstract Specifies the requirements for ATME No. 2 for a

8、tic transmissiori measuring and signalling testing equipment (ATME No. 2) is intended to make transmission measurements, echo canceller tests and signalling system functional tests2) on all categories of international circuits terminating in exchanges with 4-wire switching. The ATME No. 2 will consi

9、st of two parts, namely: 1) 2) The responding equipment will be available in the following forms: a) b) It is not possible for the signalling system functional testing devices as found in Types a and b to check the busy flash signal. For this purpose, a separate test call must be established using a

10、n appropriate test code. Arrangements will therefore be provided to force the transmission of the busy flash signal over the circuit under test by the incoming international exchange equipment. This may be carried out by examination of the test code in the exchange equipment or by the provision of a

11、 separate responding equipment. The busy flash signal should be transmitted as the result of a simulation of exchange or circuit congestion. For the purposes of this specification, the equipment providing this busy test ,mangement shall be referred to as responding equipment Type c. directing equipm

12、ent at the outgoing end; and responding equipment at the incoming end. a signalling system functional testing and transmission measuring device (Type a); a signalling system functional testing device (Type b)3). The text uf this Recommendation has been established under the responsibility of Study G

13、roups IV and XI. Any modifcation to this Recommendation must be submitted for approval to these Study Groups. 2, The concept of functional text$ excludes marginal testing 3, The CCIIT directs the attention of Administrations to the advantages of providing sufficient signalling system functional test

14、ing devices (Type b) to permt several signalling system functional tests to be conucted simultaneously and to permit signalling system functional tests to he conducted more frequently than transmission tests. For the application of ATME No. 2, see Recommendation M.605 I. Recommendation 0.22 (10/92)

15、1 CCITT RECMN+0.22 92 M 4862531 0577434 132 M Responding equipment Type a is always required. Type b is optional. When used in addition to Type a, it is expected to provide an economical means for making more frequent signalling tests without occupying the transmission measuring equipment. Type c re

16、sponding equipment is required in cases when the signalling system used on the circuits to be tested provides a busy flash line signal. For bth-way circuits, directing and responding equipment are required at both ends for making signalling system functional tests. For transmission measurements over

17、 both-way circuits, the outgoing end is normally that which is the responsibility of the control station, and the incoming end is that which is the responsibility of the sub-control station. However, these may be interchanged by mutual agreement. The equipment shall be of modular construction in ord

18、er that only those features desired by the using Administrations need to be included. This Recommendation already takes account of operating over circuits using CCIT Signalling Systems Nos. 3,4,5,6,7, RI and R2. Results of measurements shall be recorded only at the outgoing end, that is by the direc

19、ting equipment. However, arrangements can be made by the Administrations or operating agencies involved to send the results of the measurements to the Administrations in charge of the incoming end and other points as desired, by mutually acceptable means. ATME No. 2 can be used on circuits incorpora

20、ting circuit multiplication systems (CMSs) if the CMS concerned is so designed that a 2800 Hz can be used to bold the circuits during absence of the normally transmitted signals. TAS1 is an example of a CMS which accepts 2800 Hz as the holding tone. 2 Kinds of measurements and tests Transmission mea

21、surements of the following kinds will be made in both directions of transmission with Type a responders: absolute power level measurement at 1020 Hz4); absolute power level measurement at 400,1020 and 2800 Hz (loss/frequency distortion); noise measurements; signal-to-totai-distortion (including quan

22、tizing distortion) ratio measurements at values of holding tone (i.e. -10 and -25 dBmO); an in-circuit echo canceller testing system (ECTS) sequence, intended to test both near-end and far-end cancellers on a circuit under test. The ECTS is suitable for testing echo cancellers complying with Recomme

23、ndation G. 165 2; on wholly digital circuits between digital exchanges, measurements by the director of a director generated digital test pattern looped back by a Type a responder. In addition to tests of the normal signalling functions required in the process of setting up the test call, line - cle

24、ar back: - forward transfer; - signals such as the following will also be tested: busy flash (this requires a separate test call to a separate test line, see Recommendation 0.1 1 lo). 4, For further information about the choice of the test signal frequency, refer to Recommendation 0.6 9. 2 Recommend
