1.Proposed revisions to Recommendation 0.9 (former Recommendation O.121)
MEASURING ARRANGEMENTS TO ASSESS THE DEGREE OF IMBALANCE ABOUT EARTH
Replace 2.5 with the following:
"2.5 Input Longitudinal Interference Loss (ILIL)
The measurement of this parameter is applicable to receiving devices
(e.g., amplifiers, level meters, etc.). ILIL is a measure (a ratio expressed in
dB) of the sensitivity of a receiving device to longitudinal disturbances. It is
measured as shown in Figure 5a and 5b/0.121. In principle, it is similar to the
longitudinal conversion loss (LCL) measurement. However, since the measurement
is performed internally (using a built-in indicating device) or at the output
of the item under test, not only the impedance balance at points a/b but also the
effect of common-mode rejection is measured. (See 4.4.1 of
Recommendation G.117 [1].)"
Measurements in accordance with Figure 5b/0.121 are also applicable to
devices which perform a signal conversion (e.g., VF/CF side of channel translating
equipment, A/D side of PCM multiplex equipment, etc. See 2, point f of
Recommendation G.117). In this case the measurement at the output of the item under
test requires an appropriate analyzer; namely a selective level meter for
measurements at channel translators or a digital analyzer (see Recommendation 0.133) for
measurements at PCM multiplexers. In the equation in Figure 5b/0.121 it is assumed
that Vo is measured at a 0 dBr point. The quantity X, is the relative level at port
a/b.
ii) Replace 2.7 with the following:
2.7 Output signal balance (OSB)
This measurement (a ratio expressed in dB) is applicable to signal
outputs. OSB is a measure of unwanted longitudinal signals at the output of a device. It
is measured as shown in Figure 7/0.121 (see 4.3.1 of
Recommendation G.117 [1]).
The signal source G shown in Figure 7/0.121 can be internal or external to
the device under test. OSB measurements are also applicable to devices which
perform a signal conversion (e.g., CF/VF side of channel translating equipment. D/A
side of PCM multiplex equipment, etc. See 2, point f of
Recommendation G.117). In this case an appropriate external signal source, namely a signal
generator for measurements at channel translators or a digital signal generator
(see Recommendation 0.133) for measurements at PCM-multiplexers is required.
