A method of reducing speech delay and improving speech quality in digital transmission systems by implementing a single coder-decoder (codec) for an entire speech path from a calling party to a called party. The method is applicable to calls between mobile subscribers and between a mobile subscriber and an H.323 client terminal in a data network. After obtaining location information for the called party, an indication of a requested codec is sent from the calling party to the called party utilizing Integrated Services Data Network User Part (ISUP) or Primary Rate Interface (PRI) out-of-band signaling during call setup. If the called party supports the requested codec, a confirmation of the requested codec is sent from the called party to the calling party. A speech path is then established between the parties, and a single codec translation is performed for the entire speech path. If the called party does not support the calling party's codec, but the serving MSCs for both parties support the calling party's codec, the calling party's codec is utilized all the way to the called party's serving MSC. One additional codec translation is then performed in the called party's serving MSC to convert to the codec supported by the called party.

A system for bidirectional communication of digital data between a central unit and a remote unit wherein the need for tracking loops in the central unit has been eliminated. The central unit transmitter generates a master carrier and a master clock signal which are used to transmit downstream data to the remote units. The remote units recover the master carrier and master clock and synchronize local oscillators in each remote unit to these master carrier and master clock signals to generate reference carrier and clock signals for use by the remote unit receiver. These reference carrier and clock signals are also used by the remote unit transmitters to transmit upstream data to the central unit. The central unit receiver detects the phase difference between the reference carrier and clock signals from the remote units periodically and adjusts the phase of the master carrier and master clock signals for use by the central unit receiver to receive the upstream data.

To mitigate the effects of non-linear amplification in a digital transmission system employing a multi-carrier multiplexing communications technique, such as orthogonal frequency division multiplexing or discrete multi-tone, predistortion of an input signal to a power amplifier with a non-linear transfer characteristic is performed in the frequency domain by modifying frequency-domain symbols used to modulate individual sub-carriers. The frequency-domain symbols are modified in a manner that compensates for the amplifier's non-linear transfer characteristic.

A method and system for decision feedback equalization for digital transmission systems is provided. Low-power integrating decision feedback equalization with fast switched-capacitor paths are used, for suppressing intersymbol interference (ISI) due to past data symbols. The decision feedback equalization involves performing current-integrating decision feedback equalization at low-power employing a fast capacitively coupled feed-forward path at the output of a current-integrating buffer and inducing voltage changes by charge redistribution via coupled switching capacitors, and performing a voltage digital-to-analog conversation to determine a feedback coefficient as a coupling voltage. Then switches are reset to a pre-charge coupling voltage in the buffers to eliminate residual ISI caused by signal history, thereby achieving current integrating buffering with switched-capacitor feedback during the integration, and the capacitive switches are triggered by previous symbols.

A method for measuring the attenuation in digital transmission lines between a switching center and a subscriber station, with a first pulse of a known frequency spectrum being sent from the switching center to the transmission line. From the multitude of the reflections received by the switching center in the time domain that pulse is selected which was caused by the total reflection at the end of the line of a certain subscriber station. The frequency spectrum of the selected pulse is determined and from the frequency spectra of the outgoing pulse and the selected received pulse, the attenuation of the transmission line is determined, depending on its frequency. To achieve the extremely high dynamics necessary for this and to obtain a pulse which is free of any overshoot, reflection measuring is carried out selectively in the frequency range and the pulse is calculated per Fourier transformation. In order to reduce pulse widening by dispersion, the pulse in the frequency range is shifted to higher frequencies. The method makes it possible to qualify subscriber stations for new services by measuring the attenuation from the switching center.
