The maximum rate, in bits per second, at which binary information can be transferred in a given direction between users over the telecommunications system facilities dedicated to a particular information transfer transaction, under conditions of continuous transmission and no overhead information. Note 1: For a single channel, the signaling rate is given by where SCSR is the single-channel signaling rate in bits per second, T is the minimum time interval in seconds for which each level must be maintained, and n is the number of significant conditions of modulation of the channel. Note 2: In the case where an individual end-to-end telecommunications service is provided by parallel channels, the parallel-channel signaling rate is given by where PCSR is the total signaling rate for m channels, m is the number of parallel channels, Ti is the minimum interval between significant instants for the I-th channel, and ni is the number of significant conditions of modulation for the I-th channel. Note 3: In the case where an end-to-end telecommunications service is provided by tandem channels, the end-to-end signaling rate is the lowest signaling rate among the component channels.
Industry:Telecommunications
The maximum permissible departure of a clock indication from a designated time reference such as Coordinated Universal Time (UTC. )
Industry:Telecommunications
The maximum permissible departure by the center frequency of the frequency band occupied by an emission from the assigned frequency, or by the characteristic frequency of an emission from the reference frequency. Frequency tolerance is expressed in parts per 106 or in hertz. Note: In the United States, frequency tolerance is expressed in parts per 10n, in hertz, or in percentages. Frequency tolerance includes both the initial setting tolerance and excursions related to short- and long-term instability and aging. 2. The maximum permissible departure by the center frequency of the frequency band occupied by an emission from the assigned frequency or, by the characteristic feequency of an emission from the reference frequency. The frequency tolerance is expressed as a percentage or in Hertz.
Industry:Telecommunications
The maximum frequency difference between the local oscillator or clock and the reference frequency of a phase-locked loop over which the local oscillator can be locked.
Industry:Telecommunications
The maximum error for all possible measurement intervals within the measurement period.
Industry:Telecommunications
The maximum echo path delay for which an echo canceler is designed to operate.
Industry:Telecommunications
The maximum change in net loss occurring in a specified portion of a communication system during a specified period.
Industry:Telecommunications
The maximum allowable waiting time between initiation of a disengagement attempt and successful disengagement.
Industry:Telecommunications
The maximum allowable waiting time between initiation of a block transfer attempt and completion of a successful block transfer.
Industry:Telecommunications
The maximum allowable difference between a phase measurement and the actual phase value.
