v.34 & v.8 Explained
I. Description of v.8 and v.34
v.8
- Allows GSTN equipment to identify data equipment (Echo Canceling, V.25)
- Allows modems (and other data communication equipment) to handshake quickly.
- Allows data calls to be passed to DCE(Data Communication Equipment) automatically.
(similar to CNG tones and faxing)
- Uses 300 bps, V.21 modulation to transmit CI, CM, and JM.
v.34
- ITU-T recommendation for 2400 through 28800 bps.
- Multiple symbol rates
- 2 carriers, one selectable, except at 3429 symbol rate.
- Other features for optimum throughput for line conditions
- 200 bps, auxiliary data channel

GSTN |

|
Bandwidth |
The difference, expressed in hertz, between two limited frequencies of a band. |
|
Throughput |
Effective data transmission rate over time, usually expressed in bits per second. |
|
Constellation |
Quadrature Amplitude Modulation bit mapping diagram. |
|
QAM |
Quadrature Amplitude Modulation - modulating or changing an analog by adjusting its amplitude, and its phase. |
|
Carrier |
An analog signal which carriers no information, but is used as a reference point. |
|
Symbol Rate |
Number of symbols represented over a given period of time. A symbol is an analog sample which represents a given number of data bits. |
|
TCM |
Trellis Coded Modulation. A special method of QAM which allows for many invalid bit combinations, therefore making error detecting easier. |
|
Non Linear Encoding |
A method for improving distortion immunity near the perimeter of a signal constellation by introducing a non-uniform two dimensional signal point spacing. |
|
Precoding |
Pre-coding is a non-linear equalization method for reducing equalizer noise enhanced caused by amplitude distortion. Equalization is performed at the transmitter using pre-coding coefficients provided by the remote modem. Certain parts of the bandwidth can be boosted to accommodate roll off and other drops in amplitude. Analogous to a graphic equalizer on a stereo. |
|
Shaping |
A method for improving noise immunity by introducing a non-uniform two dimensional probability distribution for transmitted signal points. The degree of constellation shaping is a function of the amount of constellation expansion. Essentially, the QAM constellation is modified to accommodate noise. |
|
Preemphasis |
A linear equalization method where the transmit signal spectrum is shaped to compensate for amplitude distortion. The pre-emphasis filter is selected using a filter index provided by the remote modem. The analog signal is boosted linearly to accommodate a weak signal. |
|
TX Level Deviation |
The transmit level can be automatically adjusted to accommodate the telephone lines. If you turn it off, the modem may think the lines are better than they are. |

| ^ | Optional symbol rates under the V.34 specification. We implement all of the optional symbol rates. |
|
** |
Each symbol rate supports two carrier frequencies and two bandwidth ranges. During negotiation, the modems will decide which to use. |
