5、eneva, 1972)The characteristics for a group-delay measuring set for telephone-type circuits which are described below mustbe adhered to in order to ensure compatibility between equipments standardized by the CCITT and produced by differentmanufacturers.1 Measuring principleIn the case of group-delay

6、 distortion measurements over a line (straightaway measurements), a signal for phasedemodulation is required on the receiving side whose frequency corresponds exactly to the modulation (split) frequencyon the transmitting side and whose phase does not change during the measurement. With the proposed

7、 measuringprinciple, this frequency is generated in a split-frequency oscillator in the receiver whose frequency is controlled withthe aid of a reference carrier having a fixed frequency of 1.8 kHz. The reference carrier is amplitude modulated with thesame modulation frequency as the measuring carri

8、er and is transmitted over the path to be measured in periodicalalternation with the measuring carrier. During the changeover from measuring carrier to reference carrier no phase oramplitude surge must occur in the sending signal. For the sake of identification the reference carrier is furthermoream

9、plitude modulated with an identifying signal.If the path to be measured has different group delay and/or attenuation for the measuring carrier and thereference carrier, a phase and/or amplitude surge appears at the output of the path to be measured at the carrierchangeover point within the receiver.

10、 This phase or amplitude surge is evaluated by the receiver of the measuring set.Thus, the receiver is provided with a phase measuring device for the purpose of group-delay measurements. Thismeasuring device includes the above-mentioned frequency controlled split-frequency oscillator whose phase isa

11、utomatically adjusted to the mean value derived from the phases of the split-frequencies transmitted with the measuringand the reference carriers. The split frequency voltage fed to the phase meter is taken from the output of an amplitudedemodulator which can simultaneously be used for measuring amp

12、litude variations. In order to recognize the actualmeasuring frequency on the receiving side particularly during sweep measurements a frequency discriminator maybe provided.If the frequency of the measuring carrier differs from the frequency of the reference carrier during themeasurement and if the

13、path to be measured has different group-delay and attenuation values for the two frequencies, asquare-wave signal appears at the outputs of the phase meter, the amplitude demodulator and the frequency discriminatorin the receiver, whose amplitudes are proportional to the respective measuring results

14、 referred to the frequency of thereference carrier and whose frequency corresponds to the carrier changeover frequency on the transmitting side. Thesethree square-wave signals are subsequently evaluated with the aid of controlled rectifiers and allow indications, togetherwith the correct signs, of d

15、ifferences in group-delay distortion, attenuation and measuring frequency between measuringand reference carrier frequencies.2 Technical details2.1 TransmitterThe modulation split frequency shall be 41.66 Hz (= 1000 Hz/24). With the aid of this signal the reference andmeasuring carriers are amplitud

16、e modulated to a modulation depth of 40%. Both sidebands are transmitted. Themodulation distortion factor shall be smaller than 1%. The changeover from measuring carrier to reference carrier iscarried out within a switching time of 100 microseconds. The changeover frequency is rigidly tied to the mo

17、dulationfrequency by binary frequency division and is 4.166 Hz (41.66 Hz/10). The carrier changeover occurs at the minimum ofthe modulation envelope. Deviations of 0.2 milliseconds are admissible. The carrier frequency which is nottransmitted in each case has to be suppressed by at least 60 dB refer

18、red to the sending signal.2 Fascicle IV.4 Rec. O.81The identifying signal which is required for identifying the reference carrier is also rigidly tied to themodulation (split) frequency. The assigned frequency 166.6 Hz is derived by multiplying the modulation (split)frequency by four or by dividing

19、1 kHz by six. The rectangular-shaped identifying signal derived from 1 kHz throughfrequency division can be used for direct modulation after having passed through an RC lowpass filter with a timeconstant of T = 0.43 milliseconds since a pure sinusoidal form is not required in this case. The modulati

20、on depth is 20%.The identifying signal is only transmitted during the last 24 milliseconds of the reference carrier sending time. The shapeof the different signals on the transmitting side shown as a function of time and their respective forms can be seen fromFigure 1/O.81.Figure 1/O.81, p.2.2 Recei

21、ver2.2.1 Group-delay measurements (see Figure 2/O.81)The signal coming from the path to be measured is demodulated and the modulation frequency of 41.66 Hz soobtained is filtered out by a bandpass filter. This modulation voltage is rectangularly phase modulated, the frequency ofthe phase modulation

22、being equivalent to the changeover frequency, 4.166 Hz. The phase deviation is proportional to thegroup-delay difference between the measuring carrier and the reference carrier. The phase demodulation is carried out ina phase meter whose second input is fed, for example, by a 1 kHz oscillator via a

23、frequency divider 24/1. This oscillatorforms a closed-phase control loop involving the phase meter and a lowpass filter which suppresses the changeoverfrequency. Thus, the modulation frequency generated in the receiver corresponds exactly to the modulation frequencycoming from the transmitter.At the

24、 output of the phase meter a 4.166-Hz square-wave voltage is obtained, whose amplitude is proportionalto the measuring result. In order to enable a correct evaluation of this signal, a controlled rectification is required. Thecontrol voltage is derived from the modulation (split) frequency which is

25、generated in the receiver by frequency division(10/1). The correct phase position with regard to the transmitting signal is enforced with the aid of the identifying signal166.6 Hz. The controlled rectifier is connected both to an indicating instrument and to the direct current output.Fascicle IV.4 R

26、ec. O.81 3Figure 2/O.812.2.2 Amplitude measurementsIf the amplitude measurement is to be referred also to the reference carrier, the signal at the output of theamplitude demodulator (4.166-Hz square-wave proportional to a) can be subsequently evaluated as already describedin the case of the group-de

27、lay measurements. Furthermore, it is possible to indicate the respective absolute carrieramplitude.2.2.3 Frequency measurementsFor sweep measurements it is necessary to generate in the receiver a voltage which is proportional to themeasuring frequency. This can be achieved with the aid of a frequenc

28、y discriminator which, in turn, supplies its outputvoltage to a controlled rectifier. The indicated measuring result is the frequency difference between the measuring carrierand the reference carrier. Optionally, only the measuring carrier frequency may be indicated.2.2.4 Blanking of transient disto

29、rtionDue to the carrier changeover it may happen that transient distortions occur in the path to be measured as wellas in the receiver. These interfering signals can effectively be blanked out by means of gate circuits. The gates willrelease the ensuing measuring devices only during those periods wh

It must be possible to apply amaximum direct current of approximately 100 mA to the connected measuring instruments for the purpose of loopholding.4 Fascicle IV.4 Rec. O.814 Spe
