and mobile communications, computer communications, radio telemetry, radar and radio aids to navigation. The invention of telephone in 1876 has marked revolution in worlds telecommunication system. Soon it developed such that today, telephone network is farflung highly complex and highly integrated system extending into almost every nook and corner of all industrialized countries. In earlier stages telephone switching was done manually. Modem switching is effected automatically as on the Strowger, Crossbar and electronic system of interconnection. These systems operate on the principle of common control with incoming pulses temporarily stored in the device, which then controls the switches directly or indirectly. In the recent past telephone dialing is done with out the aid of operators. In this system switching mechanism selects the route to distant telephone and if it finds the direct circuit busy, it explores in succession a number of alternate route and establishes the connection over the least circuitous path. Further progress in the transmission is in the direction of digital rather than analog techniques.

Speech signals will be multiplexed by the pulse methods with channels interleaved in time instead of frequency. The most promising method is pcm, which provides at the expense of bandwidth low vulnerability to interface and makes it possible to regenerate pulses perfectly at each repeater, so that there is no accumulator distortion and hence no noise and cross talk. In contrast to electro-mechanical switching system, electronic system will afford a high degree of versatility through the program stored in the memory. Before long facilities will be available to have features such as simplified a busy codes specified for reaching frequency called telephones subsequent automatic completion of calls to telephone, automatic centralized answering and like type. More recently, communication satellite, employing microwave techniques are increasingly used to handle several thousand voice channels with the advent of the devices like traveling wave tube, the maser, the laser and the parametric amplifier optical communication system are coming into vogue.

PRINCIPLES OF TDM-PCM:
27
Time-division multiplexing (TDM) is a technique used for transmitting several analog message signals over a communication channel by dividing the time frame into slots, ore for each message signal. In comparison, frequency division multiplexing (FDM) divides the available bandwidth into slots, one slot for each message signalXl (t). The important features of TDM are illustrated in the figure :
28
Four input signals, all band limited to f(x) by the input filters, are sequentially sampled at the transmitter by a rotatory switch or commutator. The switch makes f(s) revolutions per second and extracts one sample from each input during each revolution. The output of the switch is a PAM waveform-containing samples of the input signals periodically interlaced in time. The samples from adjacent input message channels are separated by T(s)/M, where M is the number of input channels. A set of M pulses consisting of one sample from each of the Minput channels is called FRAME. At the receiver, the samples from individual channels are separated and distributed by another rotary switch called a distributor or decommutator. The samples from each channel are filtered to reproduce the
29
original message signal. The rotary switches at the transmitter and receiver are usually electronic circuits that are carefully synchronized. Synchronizing is perhaps the most critical aspect of TDM. There are two levels of synchronization. Frame synchronization and sample (or word) synchronization. Frame synchronization is necessary to establish when each group of samples begins and word synchronization is necessary to properly separate the samples within each frame. Direct PAM may transmit the interlaced sequence of samples or the sample values may be quantized and transmitted using PCM. Time-division multiplexed PCM is used in a variety of applications, the most important one is PCM telephone systems where voice and others signals are multiplexed and transmitted over a variety of transmission media including pairs of wires, wave guides and optical fibers.
are quantized and converted to 7-bit PCM codewords, An additional binary bit is added for synchronizing purposes at the end of every group of twenty four 8bit code word another additional bit is inserted to give frame synchronization. The overall frame size in the ti -carrier is 193 bits and the overall bit rate is 1.544 M bits\sec. The t1 system is designed primarily for short distance and heavy uses in metropolitan areas. The maximum length of the tl system is now limited to 50 to 100 miles with a repeater spacing of 1 mile. The overall T-carrier system lower is made up of various combination of order T carrier subsystems
designed for accommodating voice channels, Picture phone service, TV signals, and (direct) digital data from data terminal equipment, In additional to using metallic cable systems for transmission, optical fibers with repeaters have been used to transmit binary data at speeds of 1.5, 3.6, 45 and 274 Mbits/sec corresponding to the speeds of the digital transmission hierarchy.
INTRODUCTION:
The basic telephone circuit is architecture around three ICs chipset consisting of dialing block- realized by using IC, ringer block-realized through IC and speech block-realized through IC. The telephone circuit consists of the following functional blocks: Ringer circuit. Current limiter circuit. Dialer circuit. Speech circuit. Protection circuit and Special features.
RINGER CIRCUIT:
The ringer circuit is built around the tone ringer IC and a few discrete components. This part of the circuit has a low current consumption to allow the ringer performance. The ringer IC has built in bridge rectifier with zener diodes to protect against over voltages. The IC generates pleasing tone composed of a high frequency alternating with a low frequency resulting in a
32
variable frequency. The output of IC directly drives the ring. The DC voltage required for operation of the IC is generated from the ring AC signal. The ring signal, which is fed to the IC via the capacitor C4 and resistor R41. The supply voltage is filtered through capacitor C43. The current is limited by resistor R41 thus limiting power dissipation in the IC. The tone frequency is determined by the external resistor R42 (1 5 K) and capacitor C42 (O.OluF) volume of ringer is controlled by potentiometer R43 (l00 KQPOT).
DAILER CIRCUIT:
The dialing circuit is built around the tone/pulse switchable IC UM9/2/4B and few associated components. Internal timings of the IC are derived via crystal (xl) of
33
3.58MHz crystal, ceramic resonator. It provides dialing pulse and Dual Tone Multi Frequency (DTMF). The IC is provided by the supply from Vcc through diode D5. This diode prevents discharge of capacitor C22. During on hook, zener diode Z21 limits the supply voltage to safe operating region of the dialer IC. During on hook, IC is powered through diode bridge DlOl-D104 and R21. The hook condition of the handset is detected by HK input (pin 1). Off hook provides bias to base Q2l through R29 and R30. Q21 conducts and pulls HK to low.The IC derives its timings from 3.58MHz Quartz crystal or resonator connected to pins 3 and 4. The row outputs and column inputs are connected to the keyboard. The default-dialing mode selected through mode in (pin 2) via mode switch p/t. if mode - in pin is grounded through this switch tone mode will be activated and if connected to Vdd, pulse mode is activated. In pulse mode,*h key used to switch dial mode to tone mode from pulse. In normal state, DP (pin 11) and mute (pin 8) are in high state. When a key is pressed, the mute pin changes to low state. This makes mute input of IC(PIN
34
12)LOW and in turn it mutes the receiver and transmitter amplifiers. The dial pulses are transmitted from DP(pin). Normally transistor Q25 is off which puts transistor Q24 on. Conduction of Q24 put transistors Q22 and Q23 in conducting mode thus, circuit, drawing current from the line. During pulses on/off interrupting loop current for pulse break time and making loop during pulse make time. Number of pulses transferred on line depends on the key number dialed. At the end of pulses the mute output is switched to high so that the speech circuit is connected again. Make/break ratio is set to 33.3 to 66.6 ms. Dial rate is 10 pulses per second. In tone mode the frequencies according to CCITT are derived from a crystal oscillator XI. In this mode when a key is pressed, the DTMF tones are generated at pin 7. These tones are fed via pre scalar network R26, R27, C21 and C24 to speech (pin 11). The DTMF signal is set on the line after amplification by IC. Dialer generates low mute signal during which turns OFF transmit and receive amplifier, it is possible to hear DTMF signal as a confidence tone receiver.
35
The optional REDIAL key facilitates 12-digit redial in pulse mode and 31 digits redial in DTMF mode.
SPEECH CIRCUIT:
Speech circuit is based on low power and low voltage IC . The power to the IC and its peripheral circuits are obtained from the line. Depending of supply pin (no.13) is by capacitors C3 and C4. The internal voltage regulator is decoupled by a capacitor C6. The circuit has an internal current stabilizer where operating level is determined by the line current and resistor R8. The regulated voltage on the line (pin 1) is determined by the line current and resistor R4. The circuit has symmetrical microphone inputs (pin 7 MIC +and pin 6 MIQ. Electrets microphone is used in the circuit. The microphone gain is controlled by resistor RIO and set at about 48dB. Stability is ensured by capacitors C13 and C5. The cut off frequency is determined by time constant of RIO and CS. The receiving amplifier has one input (pin 10) and a non-inverting output (pin 4). Dynamic type earpiece incorporated in the circuit. The receiving input fed to circuit via resistor rl and capacitor C12 from the line. The gain of receiver is controlled by resistor R7 and set at
36
about 37dB. Two external capacitors C7 and C8 ensure stability of receiving amplifier. The cutoff frequency will depend on the time constant R7 and C7. Automatic line compensation is achieved through resistor R9. The automatic gain controller varies the gain of the microphone and the receiving amplifiers in accordance with the DC line current. The controlled range is 5.8dB, which corresponds to a line of 5KM for a 0.5mm diameter twisted pair copper cable. The anti side tone network consists of R2, Rll and Z BAL (i.e., R3 + R13// C14). Suppresses the transmitted signal in the earpiece. The anti side tone network in the circuit attenuates the signal received from the line by 32 db before it enters the receiving amplifier. The attenuation is almost constant over the whole of audio frequency range.
PROTECTION
CIRCUIT/COMPONENTS:
The
design incorporates two levels of protection in the circuit. Level 1 protection is against surge voltages. The level 2 protection is meant to handle high voltages and protect the speech and dialer ICs. VARISTOR VDR1
37
VDR is used across the line terminals to protect the equipment from surges that may occur or induce on telephone lines. This device discharges over voltage to other line (up to 2KV with a pulse of 10/700 us) and protects the remaining circuit from damage. During lightening or switching relays at exchange may generate high voltages on telephone line, which may cause damage to telephone. These high voltages are clipped and surge currents are by passed to other wire by VDR.

MAINTENANCECONSOLE SWITCH
As shown in the figure, the Township and plant Exchange equipment mainly consists of the following equipment : 1. AC Incomer unit 2. Power Supply DC Power supply Battery 3.Switching equipment
47
AC Incomer unit:
The Exchange is provided with 440V Ac, 3-ph power supply through two different feeders one from MRS (APSEB) and other one from TPP direct. These feeders are swappable whenever required depending upon the power availability. Incoming power to Power plant is supplied through these feeders and through a lever switch mechanism for each of the two SMPS units separately.
POWER SUPPLY:
Each cabinet requires either a 220V or 110V AC electrical power supply or a 48V electrical power supply. The racks are delivered without batteries so whatever type of power supply is required should be equipped with an external battery solution.
48
To allow the equipment to operate autonomously during prolonged power failure different power back up solutions are offered. An appropriate external uninterruptable power supply (UPS) can be used. The UPS is directly connected to electrical power outlet at base of rack. This solution operates with 110V/230V rack module. An external battery solution either in desktop format or in a rack format can be used.
Two voltages are provided: 12V for 1-rack module and 36V for 3-rack module. This solution operates with 110V/230V rack module.
DC Power Supply Equipment: The power supply unit basically converts the available AC power (440 V AC, 3phase) into 48 V DC. AC power is given to the SMPS rectifier units through a switch and a fuse cut out assembly. The Power Supply Equipment consists of:
49
2 no of Switch Mode rectifier units that is SMPS based Power supply units designated as SMP-1 & SMP-2. Each unit is having a CSU and six rectifier modules of 50 Amps capacity each, connected in parallel. The CSU has a display unit which displays the various parameters like Voltages , Currents , Alarms and battery status etc., The exchange normally draws a load current of 50 Amps approximately. 1 no of 600 Amps Manual DC switching Cubicle unit consisting of knife-switch arrangement is provided to SMPS power plants and battery banks. Provision is there to connect / disconnect SMP1, SMP2, Battery bank-1 & Battery bank-2 using simple knife edge switches in any combination. The Load terminal of the supplied Manual Switching Cubicle unit is permanently connected to the exchange load. In the event of mains power failure the Exchange will be automatically connected to battery supply without any interruption. 2 no of VRLA Battery Banks each 1000 Ah capacity are connected in float with the load. The electrode reactions in all lead acid batteries are basically identical.
50
As
the
battery
discharges, the lead dioxide (positive active material) and the spongy lead (negative active material) both react with the sulphuric acid (electrolyte) to form lead sulphate and water. During charge, this process is reversed. In conventional lead acid batteries towards the end of charging, oxygen gas is evolved at the positive electrode and hydrogen gas is evolved at the negative electrode. These gases then make their way out as bubbles through the electrolyte and escape into the environment; thereby water is lost from the battery. Therefore, periodic topping up of these batteries with demineralized water is required. In VRLA batteries, the oxygen generated at the positive plate is transported in the gaseous phase through the micro porous Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) separator to the surface of the negative plate. Here the oxygen gets reduced by reacting with the charged active material i.e., the spongy lead of the negative plate; thereby the formation of hydrogen gas is effectively suppressed. Consequently, the VRLA battery does not lose any water and therefore, no topping up is
51
required.
This
is
also
known
as
the
Oxygen
Recombination Process. These batteries come with selfresealing valves that release excess gases into the atmosphere in the event of overcharging. Therefore, complete safety is ensured, hence the name Valve Regulated Lead Acid batteries. Charging considerations: For optimum battery life, the charging equipment should posses the following features: A constant voltage charging mode with current limiting features Float voltage: 46 to 56 V Boost voltage: 50 to 61V The maximum battery charging current is to be limited to 20% of the rated capacity Over voltage cut-off: 2.33 VPC Under voltage cut-off: 1.75 VPC Voltage regulation: 1% Voltage ripple <2% of the RMS value Current ripple< 5% of the RMS value Auto float to boost changeover facility at:
52
a. Float to Boost : 5% of the rated Ah capacity in Amps b. Boost to Float : 3% of the rated Ah capacity in Amps Operation: The VRLA batteries have to be charged only in constant potential current limiting mode. The charging current is to be limited to a maximum of 20% of the Ah capacity of the battery. Recharging is to be done immediately after a discharge. A logbook should be maintained for recording all discharges. Further the charger/power plant should be compatible for charging. Charge voltage settings should be as follows:
Recommended voltage settings: Mode For 24 cells 15-32C Single cell 24 cells Above 32C Single cell Min. 10% - Max. 20% of Battery Ah Capacity Current Limit Set (Amps)

System Monitoring:
General: VRLA batteries are maintenance-free, provided they are used and monitored as per instructions. These batteries do not require the addition of DM water/acid or regular specific gravity checks. The battery should be monitored regularly for obtaining optimum performance4 throughout its operating life. A complete recorded history of the battery operation would be helpful in doing this. Good records will also help when corrective action is required to eliminate maintenance problems. Monitoring: An IEEE standard 1188-1996 recommends certain maintenance and monitoring procedures for
54
VRLA batteries in stationary applications. The following monitoring instructions are used for VRLA batteries in line with the recommended IEEE standard. To ensure optimum performance the batteries need to be inspected/monitored at periodic intervals. This will also help to identify any weak cell in battery bank, so that corrective action can be initiated. The following steps are to be followed to extract the optimum performance from the VRLA batteries.

57
All these above mentioned activities are part of the call processing and come under signaling part of the call processing. Speech part: The subscriber line card ez32 consists of 32ports / circuits Each port is for one telephone number. The various sequence operations that takes place during
The analog electrical voice signals from the telephone hand set transmitter of the originator number / destination number reaches the ez32 card in the switch.
The analog speech signals are then converted into digital form by using A/D converters. Digital speech signals are sampled by Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) coding The PCM coded speech information is further sampled. Sampled speech signals are Time division multiplexed (TDM)
58
From the available TDM signals the processor identifies the originations address and destinations address, then switches As speech to the Bs circuit and vice versa. The TDM signals in the respective circuitry are demultiplexed, PCM decoded, converted from digital to analog form. The analog circuits Thus the communication takes place between the calling party and the called party. speech signals of originator / destination are transferred to their receiver
