3. NEW FUNCTION
3.1 High-speed Transmission
The image transmission time is reduced drastically compared with the previous models by the
V.34 modem (maximum transmission speed 33600 bps) recommended by ITU-T.
3.1.1 V.8/V.34 protocol
a) Outline
The V.8 protocol is used as the startup protocol to move to V.34. The V.8 protocol enables
connection with fax machines, data modem and equipment using existing V-series
modems. The V.34 modem contains a modem circuit based on the previous
recommendation to connect with the previous modems and has upper compatibility.
The actual data transmission speed is improved entirely on average by speeding the
modulation method and utilizing new techniques, such as the pre-emphasis technique
*1
for
increasing the S/N (signal-to-noise) ratio and the probing technique
*2
for measuring line
characteristics and optimizing the modem operation according to the line condition.
The V.8 protocol, V.34 pre-protocol and post-protocol use full-duplex transmission to
speed the processing.
• Fourteen image transmission speeds
*3
are available:
33600, 31200, 28800, 26400, 24000, 21600, 19200, 16800, 14400, 12000, 9600, 7200,
4800, and 2400 bps
The modulation speed (baud rate)
*4
can be selected from among 2400, 3000, and 3200
symbols/sec (required) or 2743, 2800, and 3429 symbols/sec (option). The data
transmission speed can be set more finely than the previous modems.
NOTE
*1 The output level of a high-frequency zone with comparatively high noise
is raised, and then the transmission signal is sent.
*2 A tone signal known as a probing signal (L1 and L2) is output, and the
receiving side measures the characteristics of the line.
*3 The data signaling rate is recorded in the ITU-T standards manual. Image
transmission speed means the same as data signaling rate.
*4 The symbol rate is recorded in the ITU-T standards manual. Symbol rate
means the same as moderation speed and baud rate.
2743 symbol/sec cannot be used with this fax.
