ALTERNATE VOICE DATA [3 records]

Record 1 2010-11-30

English

Subject field(s)
  • Radiotelephony
  • Telephones
CONT

An alternate means of transmitting voice patterns between a cell site and wireless phone. Digital technology transforms voice patterns into zeros and ones(binary code-computer language). The computer encoding is transmitted along the radio channel and once the data has reached its desired destination, it is transferred back into the original voice patterns.

OBS

As opposed to analogue.

Domaine(s)
  • Radiotéléphonie
  • Téléphones
CONT

Approche parallèle pour la transmission des signaux vocaux entre un site cellulaire et un téléphone sans fil. La technologie numérique transforme les signaux vocaux en une série de zéros et de un (code binaire du langage informatique). Le codage informatique est ainsi transmis sur les voies radio. Lorsque les données arrivent à destination, elles sont reconverties pour obtenir le signal vocal d'origine.

OBS

Par opposition à analogue.

CONT

The DRS TA-1035(A)/U Digital Non-secure Voice Telephone (DNVT) with digital data port is a four-wire telephone set which transmits and receives conditioned diphase-modulated digital data, digitized voice and digital loop signaling at 16 or 32 kbps. Loop signaling consists of sequences of cyclically permuted 8-bit control words, each word having minimal correlation with any other word. Loop signaling conforms to Tri-Tac Standards.

OBS

Once a call is established, the TA-1035(A)/U can alternate between voice and data modes. For voice communications, the DNVT uses continuously variable slope delta modulation encoding/decoding at 16 or 32 kbps. Extension network analog data interface is provided via the data port. For data communications, the TA-1035/U data adapter interfaces directly with standard Data Terminal Equipment(DE) such as the AN/UXC-7 tactical facsimile machine and AN/UGC-144 communications terminal. Data calls may be placed manually via keypad or automatically via extension dialing through the data port.
