As you speak
• Analog to digital• Properties of electricity as used to convey
properties of voice• Digital to analog

Signaling over Analog Lines
• On-hook• Off-hook• Ringing– Ringing is sent using AC current rather than DC
When receiver is on-hook, circuit is broken

Additional Signaling
• Dual tone• Busy• Ring back• Congestion• Re-ordering• Receiver off-hook• No such number• Confirmation• And more
Address Signaling
• Pulse (70% connected and 30% broken connection)

Sample Voice
• Nyquist: If you sample at twice the highest frequency, you can accurately reconstruct a signal digitally
• Common frequencies:– Human hearing 20-20,000Hz– Human speech 200-9,000Hz– Nyquist therum 300-4000Hz
Quantizing the Sample
PAM – Pulse Amplitude Modulation
Human hearing range is 20 - 20,000Hz. Nyquist theory is what range?

Convert the Sample to Binary
• A-Law• U-Law (US, Canada, Japan)
• 0110011• Both use the first bit to represent “+” or “–” amplitude• A-Law uses “1” for Positive and “0” for negative• U-Law uses “0” for Positive and “1” for negative• Both use the next three bits for segments• Both use the following three bits for the interval• U-Law is known as Transcoding
Consider the bit string 1011011… This represents a positive notation for ___

Once in Binary
• Optionally compress the Samples– Send all the samples– Send just the changes– Build a code bank

What did we Learn?
• Problems with Analog connection

• Converting Digital to Analog
Multiple Calls on a single Pair of Wires
Solve the wiring problem: TDM
Understand T1, E1, and CAS specifications
Understand T1, E1, and CCS specifications
TDM• Carries multiple conversations over a 4 wire path• Build wire channels called DS0s• Each channel gives a time slot to transmit• Common DS0 Groups:
– T1 (24 DS0 frames)– E1 (32 DS0 frames_)

Analog Signals are Electrical Frequencies
• Once voice is digitized – signals must be 1s & 0s
• There are two methods:– CAS (Channel Associated Signaling)– CCS (Common Channel Signaling)
CAS in a T1 Environment (RBS) Robbed Bit Signaling
• The least significant bit in each 6th frame is signaling

Quality and Robbed Bits
• The 6th frame missing a bit degrades quality• T1 can send Large frames of 193 bits at a time• T1 Frame bit is in the first bit in DS0 24• T1 has two framing types:– Super framing (SF): sends 12 T1 frames at a time– Extended superframes (ESF): send 24 T1 frames at a
time• F6, F12 and F18, F24 (frames referenced as “A,B,C,D”)
CAS in an E1 Environment
• CAS has dedicated frames and signaling in separate channels
• CAS E1 has 32 channels• Ch1 – dedicated to framing• Ch17 – dedicated to signaling• Chs 2 - 16 and 18 - 32 are dedicated to voice• E1 is contra-intuitive ; called CAS since each time a slot is
signaled it matches to a voice channel• It is compatible with T1 CAS (has the same ABCD
signaling format
Bundling Channels Together on a T1 and E1 Connection
• CCS (Common Channel Signaling) is simpler than CAS• CCS dedicates a signaling channel on T1 and E1• Allows for the use of a signal protocol rather than just four
bits of signaling per channel– Allows for more clmplex signaling messages– Allows for proprietary signaling messages– Most common signaling protocol is ISDN’s Q.931– Other signaling protocols exist such as SS7
• Signaling Channel:– T 1 signaling channel 24– E1 signaling channel 17

• PBX and Key Systems– Typical digital PSTN connection (T1 & E1)– Provide each user unique extension number– Support a large number of features
• Key Systems– Typically Analog PSTN connection – Users share lines between phones– Support smaller number of features
PSTN Dialing Plan
