4.Proposed amendments to Recommendation 0.62
SOPHISTICATED EQUIPMENT TO MEASURE INTERRUPTION
ON TELEPHONE-TYPE CIRCUITS
Amend section 2.3.1 to read as follows:
"2.3.1 The detector shall respond to a test signal of 2 000 Hz + 100 Hz (see
also 5)."
* The loss shall continue to increase above 6 000 Hz at a rate of not less than
12 dB per octave until it reaches a value of 60 dB. The loss at higher
frequencies shall be at least 60 dB.
Delete 2.3.3 and 2.3.3.1.
Insert new 2.4, 2.4.1 and 2.4.2 as given below:
"2.4 Input impedance (frequency range 300 Hz to 4 kHz)
- Balanced, earth free
- Input longitudinal interference loss > 46 dB
2.4.1 Terminating impedance (other impedances optional) 600 ohms
- Return loss > 30 dB
2.4.2 High impedance approx. 20 kohms
- Binding loss across 300 ohms < 0.15 dB".
Renumber the existing 2.4.2.1 and 2.4.2.2 to " 2.4.3 and 2.4.4".
Replace section 3 with the following text:
"3. Display of measurement results
3.1 Interruption counters
The detected interruptions shall be divided into the following time
categories for recording purposes:
1) 0.3 (0.6) ms - 3 ms (optional, see note),
2) 3 ms - 30 ms,
3) 30 ms - 300 ms,
4) 300 ms - 1 min,
5) 1 min and over (optional).
Facility for adjusting to other time groupings may be provided at the option
of the administrations. The count shall be presented on a visual display.
Note - The value of 0.6 ms applies to the 1 020 Hz test tone.
3.2 Relative duration of interruption events (optional)
To allow an easier estimation of data transmission errors which may result
from interruptions, the instrument shall provide means to calculate and indicate the
relative duration of interruption events. This quantity is the ratio of the time
where the test tone is below a designated threshold to the total measurement time.
Interruptions between 3 ms and 1 minute shall be taken into account. Results shall be
indicated in a range 1 x 10-1 to 1 x 10-8.
3.3 Seconds containing an interruption (optional)
As a further option, the instrument shall provide means to calculate and
indicate the percentage of seconds containing one or more interruptions of a duration >
3 ms. Results shall be indicated in a range 0 to 100% with one digit after the
decimal point.
3.4 Power failure
In the event of a power failure any loss of measurement results should be
clearly indicated on a display for later observation."
Add a new section 5 to read as follows:
"5. Simultaneous measurements
The measurement of interruptions may be provided in an instrument which also
makes measurements of other transient impairments, e.g., amplitude and phase hits. A
test signal frequency of 1 020 Hz +2 -7 Hz may be used to facilitate the integration
of several measurements of transient phenomena in such a combined instrument. In all
other respects, the measurement of interruptions shall be in accordance with the
principles of this Recommendation."
The X-axis of Figure 1/0.62 shall be labelled as shown below:
