18、General description The multitone test signal (MTTS) consists of a spectrum of N discrete signals separated by frequency spacing of 100 Hz in the low frequency range. The spectral lines are all of equal amplitude; their phase relationship to each other is chosen on the basis of mathematical consider

19、ations so that the energy of the test signal is distributed approximately evenly across the entire period of the test signal. The transmission characteristics, i.e. the amplitude and phase distortion of a telephone line, produce changes in the test signal. On the receive side, these changes are meas

20、ured and evaluated, e.g. by means of a Fourier analysis. The results may be displayed on a screen in the form of an amplitude andor phase graph and also, for example, the group delay may be derived from this. 1.1.2 Measuring principle The transmit signal consisting of N cosine waveforms is generated

21、 in digital circuits: a sufficient number of instantaneous values of the MTTS is read out of a ROM with a clock frequency. After passing through a D/A converter and a filter which suppresses the clock frequency, the composite signal is available: N (t) = C A, . COS (2 71: rift - 9,) where A f cp n t

22、 time N total number of waveforms. Atf= 100 Hz, the duration of one period of the MTTS is 10 ms. The MTTS is passed to the object to be tested which changes the properties of the MTTS, i.e. the amplitudes and phases of the single waveforms. In the receiving section, the changed signal is passed to a

23、n evaluation circuit, where the signal is sampled with the clock frequency. The sampled analogue values are digitized and stored in a memory. The stored values of the time function are then transferred by means of the Discrete Fourier Transform into the frequency domain. All necessary calculations a

24、re performed in a microcomputer. At measurements where the objects to be tested include carrier frequency systems, frequency shift of the measuring signal can appear. In such cases it is recommended to use window functions in the signal processing section of the receiver. amplitude of a single wavef

25、orm is 100 Hz (see Note 2) phase of the single waveforms serial number of the single waveforms The characteristics of the object to be tested are derived from the deviation of the received values against the transmitted values.

28、tion of the transmitted signal. 1.2 With the technical means available today the multitone test signal can be generated at low cost with excellent stability of frequency, amplitude and phase. The quantity of 35 discrete signals and thus test points in the frequency range 200 to 3600 Hz is quite adeq

29、uate for the testing requirements occurring in practice. Optionally, the frequency band can be widened according to Note 1. When the received signal is evaluated, e.g. with the aid of a Fourier analysis to determine amplitude/frequency response andor phase or group delay, a test cycle time, allowing

30、 for processing time and screen display time, of only less than one second is needed. This short test cycle is of great advantage mainly when equalization work has to be done. Because the MTTS is normally a continuous signal there are no settling time problems which occur using a sweep mode signal.

31、The MTTS is an ideal band-limited “noise signal” for determining the rms bandwidth of filters, for example for the filter (psophometric weighting) in Recommendation 0.41 or for calibrating PCM instruments measuring quantizing distortion. Considering the ripple at the frequency response curve one can

32、 recognize very clearly that there are frequency components caused by any non-linearity of an item under test. Using the Fourier analysis to evaluate the received MTTS one can recognize both the amplitude and frequency of unwanted signals; that means, the procedure works like a swept selective recei

33、ver. The period of this MTTS is 10 ms (which corresponds to one period of a 100-Hz fundamental). Since for Fourier analysis it is sufficient to sample just one period of the test signal, i.e. 10 ms, at the receiving side, and 10 ms plus at the sending side, measurements could be performed during cor

34、respondingly short gaps in the speech or data transmission signal. These gaps occur in any case in these signals, or they may be created by technical means. Advantages of the multitone test signal 2 Recommendation 0.81lAppendix 1 (06198) The use of the MTTS in combination with the Fourier analysis m

35、akes it possible to provide measurements of parameters which normally require filters; e.g. weighted noise, quantizing distortion, selective crosstalk, etc. In these cases filtering is provided by appropriate calculations in the microcomputer carrier out for the frequency domain of the input signal.

36、 For measurements including PCM sections it is not necessary to shift the frequencies in order to avoid submultiples of 8 kHz, in this case a MTTS without frequency shift leads into a frequency response with a ripple of up to I 0.1 dl3. With the help of an averaging procedure (e.g. 4 or 16 measuring

37、 cycles) the ripple can be reduced to a negligible value. A further possibility to reduce the ripple is to use shifted frequencies of II x 101.56 Hz, according to Note 2. In this case the ripple is less than I 0.05 dl3 after one measuring cycle; even this relatively small error can be reduced by an

38、averaging procedure. 1.3 Practical experience Since 1981, instruments using multitone test signals have been used by various Administrations all over the world. Measurement results are obtained quickly and unambigously and are compatible with those obtained with conventional methods. The USSR Teleco

39、mmunication Administration is investigating theoretically and practically the MTTS in order to determine the best use for further applications.
