Experiment No. 1
PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network)
Aim: To Study basics of Public switched telephone network (PSTN) & verify truth table.
Equipment: PSTN trainer kit, DSO, Connecting patch cords.
Theory:
PSTN is a telecommunication facility designed for transmitting human like voice in more or
less from public telephone network. Within countries or regions are standard integrated
system of transmission & switching facility. Signaling procedure processor & associated
operations support system that allow communication devices to communicate with each
other, when they operate. A telephone call may consist of an ordinary voice transmission,
when calling party are using modems or facilitate transmission when two parties are using
fax machines when telephone call has more than one called party, it is referred as
conference call. If caller wired phone is directly connected to calling party, when calling
party is given tone to indicate that they should begin dialing to desired number.
In some cases, calling party cannot dial calls directly & it is connected to an operator, who
places call for them. Processing during call & after call is placed contain tones signify
progress and dial tone signify that call is ready t be placed either.
a) Ringing tone signifying that calling party has to yet assure telephone.
b) A busy signal (energy tone) signifying that calling partys telephone is being used in
telephone called other person.
Status tone such as STD notification tones, minute minds beeps & other tone to signify that
called party has hanged up.
Procedure:
1. Connect TDM output from multiplexer section to TDM input of de-multiplexer
section.
2. Connect signal input-1 terminal of multiplexer section to sine wave signal of sine
wave generator with frequency amplitude 1 Vpp., note down frequency.
Signal 1
3. Connect signal input-2 terminal of multiplexer section to sine wave signal with
amplitude 1 Vpp.

5. Connect signal input-4 terminal of multiplexer section to sine wave signal with
amplitude 1Vpp.
Signal 4
6. Connect Pulse output of Sampling pulse generator to sampling pulse input of S/H
circuit.
Sampling Clock
7. Keep Frequency pot of Sampling pulse generator in mid position.
8. Connect CRO Channel 1 at TDM O/P signal. (T-Switching) Observe TDM signal.
X1& X2 Output
9. Keep all control input (D, C, B, A) to low value i.e. 0000. Keep data control input to
low value. Apply strobe pulse by pushing pulse switch. This will reset all outputs i.e.
all gates are blocked and no output are available at Y1, Y2 outputs.
10. Now keep D, C, B and A to low data to high and apply strobe. The X1 output will be
available at Y1 point.

11. Once again keep all control input (D, C, B, A) to low value i.e. 0000. Keep data control
input to low value. Apply strobe pulse by pushing pulse switch. This will reset all
outputs once again.
12. Now keep D, C, B and A to 0101 and apply strobe. The X2 output will be available at
Y2 points. By using following truth cable X1 and X2 inputs can be send either Y1 or
Y2- Space switching.

13. Connect CRO Channel 2 at de-multiplexed output-1 of demodulator section. Observe

recovered sine wave signal-1.

14. Connect CRO Channel 2 at de-multiplexed output-2 of demodulator section. Observe
recovered sine wave signal-2.
Signal 2 Output
15. Connect CRO Channel 2 at de-multiplexed output-3 of demodulator section. Observe
recovered sine wave signal-3.
Signal 3 Output
16. Connect CRO Channel 2 at de-multiplexed output-4 of demodulator section. Observe
recovered sine wave signal-4.
Signal 4 Output
17. Now change value of ABCD, data and strobe as per truth table and observe different
space switching of input signals.

To observe Cross-talk effect

Procedure:
1. Keep all control input (D, C, B, A) to low value i.e. 0000. Keep data control input to
low value. Apply strobe pulse by pushing pulse switch. This will reset all outputs i.e.
all gates are blocked and no output are available at Y1, Y2 outputs.
2. Now keep D, C, B and A to low data to high and apply strobe. The X1 output will be
available at Y1 point.
3. Now keep D, C, B and A to 0100 and apply strobe. The X1 output will be available at
Y2 points. As we have not resettled X1-Y1 link of procedure step 2, X1 is sent to Y1
as well as Y2. Thus when one connection is heard at two places it is known as cross
talk.

Conclusion:
The data can be transferred between the end users using various digital switches
such as Time Switching / Space Switching / Combination of Time & Space.
In the above experiment we have used time space time (T-S-T) switching.
