LAB SESSION 01

OBJECT:
A) To introduce the parts of Bluetooth modules.
B) To connect and control Bluetooth modules.

THEORY & PROCEDURE:


1) System Connection
BT-3000 connection between the program and hardware is communicated through USB.
When a command is sent to server hardware from the server program, the server
hardware performs wireless communication with slave hardware and controls module
that is mounted on a slave. As shown in the figure, the server and slave communicate
wirelessly and the operation differs depending on the connected slave module.
2) Module Connection
Mount a module to be used in Con3 and Con4 practice on the right side of slave board.
All used modules are mounted here. When a user created his/her own module, it has to be
tested for power connector and ground before mounting.
Total 13 modules are given here. The serial number of module that is used in practice
ranges from BT-3000-04 ~ 16 are as follows;
BT-3000-4 : DC Motor Module
BT-3000-5 : Step Motor Module
BT-3000-6 : Regular Power Control Module
BT-3000-7 : Current Power Control Module
BT-3000-8 : Temperature Sensor Control1 Module
BT-3000-9 : Temperature Sensor Control2 Module
BT-3000-10 : Infrared Sensor Control1 Module
BT-3000-11 : Infrared Sensor Control2 Module
BT-3000-12 : Touch Sensor Control Module
BT-3000-13 : Ultrasonic Sensor Control Module
BT-3000-14 : Gas Sensor Control Module
BT-3000-15 : Humidity Sensor Control Module
BT-3000-16 : Pressure Sensor Control Module
When mounting the module, the module must be placed so that the module serial number
can be seen from the left or parts numbers must be seen clearly. If the direction of module
is incorrect, it cannot be mounted on the board.

NED University of Engineering & Technology- Department of Electronic Engineering

Con1 and Con2 in the center are connectors that mount the controller.
The currently provided controller can be used with other PIC controller that has same pin
arrangement. For this system, highly expandable controller has been selected for future
integration. In near future, 8051 series and ARM series processors will be supported. The
controller is created in socket format so that various CPU types can be used for different
user types.
3) Slave Board Parts Description
a) Bluetooth Chipset part
This part controls the communication to the slave. On the slave board, Class1 Bluetooth
chipset is used to enable nearby wireless communications. When a user becomes familiar
with programming, server side also can be embedded to reduce the communication
distance limitation.
b) Interface part
The interface part of a slave board can be used to individually learn Bluetooth chipset or
to load a program onto mycom. Direct programming through UART is not yet supported.
c) LED part
This part is used to check the currently operating slave status. This part is largely divided
into two parts.
LED part1 displays the operation status of Mycom and Bluetooth, and
LED part2 is a LED that notifies the type of currently connected modules.
When a user mounts a power group or a motor group onto a slave board, Mycom
recognizes the mounted module and displays a respective LED.
IDLE: In this status, only power is supplied to Bluetooth and no communication are
being processed.
CONN: This status shows that the device is in connection with a server.
d) Power & Audio part
BT-3000 system uses various powers to operate numerous sensors. Main power supplied
to a slave board is provided in adopter format and uses 9V, 1A.
Also, for voice communication during basic communication practices, audio jack (earmicrophone jack) is attached.
Wireless Control
Wireless communication is not as easy as it seems and the procedure is also complicated.
These procedures are organized with BT-3000. In wireless control a user will learn how
to communicate two devices wirelessly. It is composed of the following four practices.
Inquiry for nearby devices
ACL Connection (data communication connection)

Multimedia Communication

Step 5: Press the button located on the right top corner of the main screen.
Step 6: Click Search Near by Devices Button located on the bottom right corner.
Step 7: The server starts inquiring nearby Bluetooth devices.
Step 8: When the search is complete, the server program displays searched slave devices
on screen.
The list gives the addresses of Bluetooth devices that responded. NONAME in the list
means that no name has been recorded to the slave Bluetooth chip. The blank on top of
the list is used to display the address of selected device. The names of provided systems
are not recorded, and if there are any other Bluetooth devices nearby, the names of those
devices appear.
2) ACL Connection- Asynchronous connection Less (Data Communication
Connection)
The connection process for communication between two Bluetooth devices is studied. All
procedures after inquiring all nearby devices is done using search function.
Step 1 to Step 8: Same as nearby device search.
Step 9: Select a device from the searched devices screen.
Step 10: Select an address from nearby device selection screen and click basic practice
button.
Step 11: From ACL connection screen, click ACL connection button among the two
buttons.
Step 12: When the connection button is successfully pressed, the connection release
button on the right of the connection button is activated.
In this step, a user can send data that can control the module mounted on a slave board.
3) SCO Connection Synchronous Connection Oriented (Voice Communication
Connection)
Bluetooth requires ACL connection for voice communication with a slave device.
Step 1 to Step 12: Repeat steps in point 1 & 2.
Step 13: After ACL data connection, press basic practice button for SCO connection and
select SCO connection menu from wireless control basic practice screen.

LAB SESSION 11
OBJECT:
To become familiar with the use of 4 telephones connected to the local switching centre.

THEORY:
Local Signalling: The signalling between the telephone user, and the local Switching
Centre is known as local signalling.
The signals available to the user are the Switch Hook and the Keypad. The Switch Hook
operates as soon as the telephone is lifted. This is the Off Hook state of the telephone,
and is recognised by the Switching Centre. The Keypad is primarily used to send the
Destination Address to the Switching Centre; that is the number of the telephone to which
the connection is required.
Dual Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) signalling: The signals are in the form of a
combination of two audible tones, a different combination for each number on the
Keypad. Hence it is known as Dual Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) signalling.
The Switching Centre can send signals to the user, by using tones and by ringing the bell
or alerter in the telephone. The audible tones are known as call progress tones, and
indicate to the user important responses of the Switching Centre. Obviously they are only
useful if the user is listening to the telephone. If the telephone is not in use, i.e. if it is on
hook, then the Switching Centre can ring it.
ITU-T Standards: Standards for the telephone industry are agreed by an international
body. Up to 1994 it had a French name, Comite Consultatif International de
Telegraphique et Telephonique (CCITT). Since then it has been known as the
Telecommunications Standardisation Sector of the International Telecommunications
Union (ITU-T).The ITU-T produced a Standard Recommendation E.180 for the tones
used in local signalling.
Each telephone system is run by an Administration, sometimes a public Administration,
usually running the whole telephone system in one country, and sometimes privately
owned. Historically each Administration has often used different tones for the same
purpose. The ITU-T Recommendation aims to reduce these differences so that in
international calls operators and users understand easily the meaning of the tones. The
Recommendation includes 'acceptable' tones for each purpose, and 'recommended' tones
for new systems. The general nature of each tone, and the acceptable and recommended
limits are:
Dial Tone: Dial Tone should be a continuous tone, either a single frequency in the range
400-450 Hz, with 425 Hz preferred, or a combined tone of up to 3 frequencies, with at
least one frequency in the ranges 340-425 and 400-450 Hz, with at least 25 Hz difference

30

Multimedia Communication
NED University of Engineering & Technology- Department of Electronic Engineering

between any 2 frequencies. However any existing dial tones, including interrupted tones
are acceptable, because of the technical and social difficulties of changes.
Ring Tone: Ring tone is a slow period tone, in which the tone period is shorter than the
silent period. The recommended limits are 0.67 to 1.5 seconds for the tone and 3 to 5
seconds for the silence; and the acceptable limits are up to 2.5 sec and up to 6 seconds
respectively. The recommended frequency is 400-450 Hz, with 425 Hz preferred; and the
acceptable range is 340-500 Hz.
Busy Tone: Busy tone is a quick period tone, with the tone and silence periods equal.
The total duration of both tones is recommended to be 0.3 to 1.1 seconds; and the ratio of
tone to silent period should be between 0.67 and 1.5. The recommended frequency is
400-450 Hz, with 425 Hz preferred; and the acceptable range is 340-500 Hz.
Number Unobtainable Tone: No recommendations are made.
System Operation: The normal use of the 4 telephones connected to the local Switching
Centre is demonstrated in this Practical. By using the telephones to make calls, the basic
operation of the Switching Centre is examined. The telephones use single digit numbers.
The numbers to be dialed correspond to the Line numbers L1 to L4 shown on the Work
board i.e. 1, 2, 3 and 4.
The system uses 4 Call Progress Tones: Dial tone, Ring tone, Busy tone and Number
Unobtainable (NU tone). Using the telephones the tones can be heard. Also the
connection of them can be seen on the Switching Centre diagram. Ringing the telephone
requires a much larger voltage than the acoustic Tones. This is indicated by a different
colour inside the Switching Centre diagram. The Digital Switching Centre Work boards
used for this can operate as one of two types, A or B. The work board used for the single
Switch Assignments, must be set to type A, by the Switching Centre Type switch at the
far right hand corner of the board. If two boards are connected, the other should be type
B, and is not used for these Assignments.

PROCEDURE & RESULT:


1. This exercise is to become familiar with the use of the 4 telephones connected to
the local switching centre. The numbers for the telephones for the first
Assignments correspond to the line numbers on the work board, i.e. 1 to 4.
2. The work board must be set to Type A. If there is another board connected, it
must be type B, and is not used. The tones are preset but non-standard.
3. Put all 4 telephones face down (On Hook).
4. Pick up telephone 1. Dial Tone is heard, and the connection is shown on the
diagram. Press button 2. Ring Tone and Alerting (Ring) are applied to telephones
1 and 2. Pick up telephone 2. Speak into one of them to check the connection.
5. While the first connection is held, pick up telephone 3 and press button 1. Busy
Tone is heard. Then replace telephone 3.
6. Replace telephone 2. Is the connection broken? Replace telephone 1.

LAB SESSION 12
OBJECT:
To become familiar with time switching & space switching.

THEORY:
Digital Transmission: Digital telephone signals use a synchronous transmission system,
which combines Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) and Pulse Code Modulation
(PCM). Each speech path has to send an 8 bit binary code at a rate of 8000 codes per
second. The codes are organized into groups called frames. Each code is transmitted in a
timeslot. The frames include special synchronizing codes so that each timeslot can be
identified and the code correctly converted back to analogue form.
In the CEPT system which originated in Europe there are 32 timeslots in each frame.
Each frame takes 125 s, and each 8 bit timeslot is transmitted in 3.9 s, at a rate of
2.048 Mbps. In the T1 system which was designed in North America there are 24
timeslots in each frame. Each frame also takes 125 s, and so each 8 bit timeslot is
transmitted in 5.2 s. An extra bit is used for synchronizing so the transmission rate is
1.544 Mbps.
The connection to each telephone uses 2 wires which carry analogue signals in both
directions. For Digital Switching, incoming and outgoing speech are separated by hybrid
circuits. Then combined Codec/Filter circuits provide analogue to digital and digital to
analogue conversion.
Speech Paths:

The Codec/Filter circuits are connected to the Digital switch through Inlet and Outlet
Busses. Each Bus can carry up to 24 or 30 speech connections, depending on the PCM
system in use. Each Codec is connected to the Inlet and Outlet Busses at a designated
time; for the period of one timeslot.

33

Multimedia Communication
NED University of Engineering & Technology- Department of Electronic Engineering

Basic Digital Switching: The Digital Switch transfers the contents of each timeslot in the
Inlet Bus to the appropriate timeslot in the Outlet Bus. Switching of the data from each
timeslot in the Inlet Bus requires changing the time at which the data is transmitted along
the Outlet Bus. The process is known as Time Switching or Time Slot Interchange.
Time and Space Switching: Most switching systems have more than 24 or 30 channels
and use more timeslots than can be accommodated in one Bus. Therefore switching
between the Busses is required. The Digital Switch shown must switch between different
timeslots and also between different busses.

Time Switching: The basic process in Digital Switching for telephone systems is the
transfer of 8 bits of digital data from one Timeslot to another. The speech signals from
each telephone are connected through a Codec to the Switch during a specified Timeslot.
The connections are made along Inlet and Outlet serial busses. The simplest connection
between 2 telephones occurs if they are both using the same Inlet and Outlet busses. They
must, of course, use different Timeslots. Then 8000 times per second the contents of the
Inlet Timeslots for each telephone must be transferred to the Outlet Timeslots of the
other. This is Timeslot Interchange or Time Switching. The Timeslots are organized in
Frames. Each Frame has 32 (CEPT systems) or 24 (T1 systems) Timeslots. Successive
Frames are transmitted along the same physical connections i.e. the same Inlet and Outlet
busses.
The data for transmission is only available briefly, and the display flashes to suggest this.
Of course the actual data transmission is very much faster than the flashing. For
convenience one digit dialing is still used in this Assignment (Line numbers 1 to 4).
Time and Space Switching: One 30 channel CEPT serial bus can accommodate 30
telephones, and each T1 serial bus can accommodate 24 telephones. Hence any larger
system requires more Inlet and Outlet serial busses, particularly if they are public
systems. Hence switching between serial busses is required as well as time switching.
This is known as combined Time and Space Switching.

The demonstration uses two Inlet and two Outlet serial busses. In a large system there are
many such serial busses, and complex combinations of Time and Space switching are
used.

PROCEDURE & RESULT:


Preliminary Procedure:
Check the Workstation set up as follows:
One Digital Switch Centre If there is only one Digital Switch Centre and
Telephone Tray (58-122 and 58-123) connected to the system controller 58-121,
make sure the Switching Centre Type Switch is set to 'A' (green LED on).

Two Digital Switch Centres If there are two Digital Switch Centres and
Telephone Trays (58-122 and 58-123), one Switching Centre Type Switch should
be set to A (green LED on) and the other to B (yellow LED on). A curly
trunk cable should interconnect the Trunks connectors. Use Switch Centre 'A'
for the Practical.
Two Digital Switch Centres plus a Trunk Networks Board With two Digital
Switch Centres and Telephone Trays (58-122 and 58-123) and a Trunk Networks
Board, 58-140 included in the set-up, one Switching Centre Type Switch should
be set to A (green LED on) and the other to B (yellow LED on). Curly trunk
cables should interconnect the Trunks connectors. Use Switching Centre 'A' for
the Practical.

Procedure for Time Switching:


1. Switching between 4 telephones, all of them connected to one bus. The data is
only available briefly in each timeslot, as suggested by the flickering display.
2. Make a connection between any two telephones. They have numbers 1 to 4.
Observe which timeslots have their contents exchanged to carry the speech signal
from one telephone to the other.
3. Make another connection without breaking the first one and observe the new
timeslot interchange.
4. Clear the connections and make new connections.
Procedure for Time & space switching:
1. The 4 telephones are now connected to 2 timeslots in different busses.
2. Again make different connections between the telephones. They are numbered 1
to 4.
3. In each case observe the timeslot interchanges required. Some of them are in the
corresponding serial bus, for example from Inlet bus 0 to Outlet bus 0 but some
require speech data to be exchanged into an unrelated bus.

Determined the relationship between information held within the control memory and
the actual switching operation.
Established the procedure to connect tones to calling lines.

THEORY:
Digital Switch Architecture:
The Switch has an Inlet Buffer (Serial In and Parallel Out), and an Outlet Buffer (Parallel
In and Serial Out) for each Serial Bus connected.
The Buffers and the Data Memory are connected internally by a parallel bus, which can
operate much faster than the serial busses.
The Connection Memory is used to control the time at which the contents of each
timeslot are sent to the Outlet Buffer.

Switch Operation:
The incoming serial data along one Inlet Bus enters the Inlet Buffer. The data in each
timeslot is read into a location in the Data Memory in sequence as it arrives. Thus the
position in the Data Memory indicates which timeslot was connected.

36

Multimedia Communication

To achieve Time Switching, the data from each location in the Data Memory must be
read at the correct time, and sent to the Outlet Buffer.
Each location in the Connection Memory is used for the same timeslot as the
corresponding location in the Data Memory. However each Connection Memory location
contains an address, not data. The address is that of the Data Memory location which
should be read and the data sent to the Outlet Buffer for each timeslot.
Thus by writing data into the Data Memory sequentially, but reading it when required,
Time Switching is obtained.
Combined Time and Space switching is obtained using the same principle. More Inlet
and Outlet Buffers are used for the additional busses, all connected by the parallel bus to
the Data Memory, which is more extensive.
A limit on switch capacity is reached when the internal bus cannot reach the speed
required for transfer of all the data. In that case combinations of switches are used.
Control of Time Switch:
Switching using RAM
The method used for Time Switching is to write the 8 bits of data in each Timeslot into a
location in a random access memory (RAM). Then at the correct time the data is read
from the RAM and transmitted through the Switch Outlet.
To do this the Digital Switch writes the data from each Timeslot in the Inlet serial Bus
into the Data memory. Each location in the Data Memory corresponds to a particular
Timeslot in the Inlet Serial Bus.
The data is read out from the Data Memory and sent to the Outlet Serial Bus in the
correct sequence for the particular connection required.
Switch Control:
The output sequence is controlled by the Connection Memory. Each location in the
Connection Memory also corresponds to a Timeslot in the Outlet Serial Bus.
The Connection Memory contains the addresses of the Data Memory from which each
Timeslot data can be read. The addresses are inserted when the connection is set up.
At the time for the data to be transferred to the Outlet, the address is read in the
corresponding location in the Connection Memory, and used to find the data in the Data
Memory.

The data is held for a complete Frame; ie, 125 s, in the Data Memory before being
written over by the data from the next corresponding Timeslot. This is indicated by the
display not flashing as quickly as the serial data.
Connection of Tones:
The Digital Switch is used to connect each of the 4 tones used for signalling to the
telephone user. The tones are Dial tone (DT), Ringing tone (RT), Busy tone, and Number
Unobtainable (NU tone).
The tones are continuously available in particular timeslots, and are connected to each
line as required. Each tone can be connected to as many telephones as necessary
simultaneously.
Each tone can be programmed (see the Local Signalling Assignment). Whether it is the
programmed or preset tones that are used, they are available in the same timeslots.

Procedure for Connection of Tones:


The 4 tones for signalling to the telephone are available in specified timeslots, in one
serial bus. They are connected as required to the telephone timeslots, again under the
control of the connection memory.

1. Pick up one telephone and listen to the dial tone. Dial another telephone, see that
dial tone stops, and then ring tone starts. Answer the telephone.
2. Then try to connect a third telephone to one of the first two. Finally try to connect
to an invalid number.

LAB SESSION 14
OBJECT:
To learn how the call state, call record, call progress are made.

THEORY:
Call Records: A Call Record is an area of memory in which the essential data for any
call is held. Each time a telephone goes off hook in order to start a call, a new Call
Record is opened. The essential items are:
The call state, which indicates the position which a call has reached in the sequence of
events.
The identity of the calling line
The identity of the required line
The duration of the call
The timing of the Ring Count.
These items, together with the Line Scan inputs, are the total requirements for the Control
microprocessor to handle the call. The Call Records are numbered R1 to R4. For a very
small system it is possible for all telephones to be Off Hook together and so there has to
be a Call Record for each one. However you will probably notice as you work with the
system that it is unusual for all 4 to be needed.
In large systems an assumption is made that most telephones are not in use most of the
time, and so only a small proportion of possible connections are ever made

Call States and Transitions:

The first Practical uses this diagram to illustrate the progress of a Call through various
Call States. The diagram is the basis of a 'Process' diagram as defined in the ITU-T
Specification and Description Language (SDL). It serves as an introduction to the SDL
concepts.

Call State: The concept of Call State is the method for organizing the control of the
telephone system. The Call States in this system are numbered S0 (Idle) to S7 (Speech).
The progress of a call is monitored by reference to its State. Most of the time of the
Control in the Switching Centre is spent waiting for the next input from a user. When the
Line Scan detects a change of Input from the Hook Switch, or from the DTMF Receivers,
it refers to the Call State, if any, for that Line to determine the significance of the Input.
Dialing: In this 2 digit dialing is used. This is more realistic, and enables the Call
Processing to be more clearly observed. The preset numbers for the 4 Lines are 21, 22, 31
and 32, respectively.
State S3: Note that local calls, in the single Switch used for this Assignment, do not need
to dwell in State S3 - Find Line. This is because the processor can determine immediately
whether the required line is free, busy or unobtainable, and is an internal transition. A
short pause at State S3 is imposed, but would not normally be used. State S3 is examined
more closely in other Assignments.
As an example, consider the system starting in State S0, Idle. When the Line Scan shows
an unused handset off-hook, it responds with dial tone. A Transition is made to State S1 Call Request. As the call progresses more Transitions occur. At any point, if the call is
released, then the system reverts to State S0 - Idle. The Call State is recorded at each
stage in the Call Record.
Use of Call State Transition Diagram: The advantages of the Call State Transition
Diagram include:

It provides an exact specification of the operation of the system and at the same time it
enforces a discipline on the system designer.

The control software is designed and tested by considering the possible States.
The complexity of a large system is thus reduced to a number of simple steps.
For design if a system is in a particular State, only certain Transitions are possible, and
only those need to be provided. For testing, from any State it is only required to ensure
that the required Transitions, and only those, occur.

Line Identities: For the Call Record the lines are identified by their Equipment Numbers,
which correspond to the Telephone Line numbers L1 to L4 on the Work board. There are
2 Line Identities used in the Call Record. The Calling Line Identity CLI is entered when
the Call Record is opened. The Required Line Identity RLI is entered when it is
identified by the dialed numbers.
Call Progress: The basic information required by the Control to process a call comprises
the Call State CS and the Line Identities CLI and RLI. With that information, incoming
signals from the telephone are correctly interpreted. All switching whether of Tones or
Ringing or final Connection can be performed. Release of a call may happen at any State
of the call. Hence correct disconnection also requires all the 3 items, CS, CLI and RLI.

Call Duration: The duration of any telephone call is important to a telephone company
for various reasons. The main reason is for charging the user for the call. When the call is
completed, the details of the call are recorded and used for calculating the bill. Also it is
useful to keep some statistics on the system performance. For example the time required
to set up a call, for which the company is not paid, affects the amount of computing
equipment needed by the system. Finally if calls are not completely established, e.g. a
phone is left off-hook without dialing, after a certain period it may be disconnected or an
alarm message may be sent.
Ring Count: According to the ITU-T recommendation, Ring Tone and the Ringing
signal should commence as soon as the connection is made. To achieve this without
distorting the normal Ring cadence, the Tone period must start immediately. Hence the
cadences for each line are not synchronous, and must be counted independently. The unit
of time for the Ring Count is 0.1 second. It is convenient to provide a location for the
count with the Call Record. However no further use is made of the data.

PROCEDURE & RESULT:


Preliminary Procedure:
Check the Workstation set up as follows:
One Digital Switch Centre If there is only one Digital Switch Centre and
Telephone Tray (58-122 and 58-123) connected to the system controller 58-121,
make sure the Switching Centre Type Switch is set to 'A' (green LED on).

Two Digital Switch Centres If there are two Digital Switch Centres and
Telephone Trays (58-122 and 58-123), one Switching Centre Type Switch should
be set to A (green LED on) and the other to B (yellow LED on). A curly
trunk cable should interconnect the Trunks connectors. Use Switch Centre 'A'
for the Practical.
Two Digital Switch Centres plus a Trunk Networks Board With two Digital
Switch Centres and Telephone Trays (58-122 and 58-123) and a Trunk Networks
Board, 58-140 included in the set-up, one Switching Centre Type Switch should
be set to A (green LED on) and the other to B (yellow LED on). Curly trunk
cables should interconnect the Trunks connectors. Use Switching Centre 'A' for
the Practical.

Procedure for Call state:


1. The Call State is used by the control to determine the progress of any call. The
active Call State Transition Diagram shows the possible Transitions between
States.
2. 2 digit dialing is now needed to demonstrate reasonable call progress. The lines
L1 to L4 have preset numbers 21, 22, 31, 32. These can be changed in the Line
Records, Numbering Practical.
3. Lift just one telephone and go through the stages of a call.

4. The Call State table shows which State each Call Record has reached. The related
Call State Transition Diagram (CSTD) shows the progress of any call. If
necessary use the Select Record button to find the current CSTD.
5. Make two calls simultaneously and follow their progress on the 2 CSTDs. Try to
connect to a telephone already in use; and to a nonexistent directory number.
Procedure for Call progress:
1. There are 2 Line Identities required for the Call Record. The Calling Line
Identity CLI is entered into the Call Record when a new Record is started.
2. The Dialed Number is stored as the digits are dialed. When it is complete, if the
required line is not Busy or Unobtainable, the Required Line Identity RLI is
entered into the Call Record.
3. Use the telephones to make various connections (2 digit dialing). Observe when
the Identities are entered and removed from the Call Records.
Procedure for Call duration:
1. The duration of each call, in seconds, is maintained in each Call Record. Timing
starts as soon as the Call Record is opened.
2. When a connection is made, the Set Up duration is recorded for the Traffic
statistics. The Call Duration is then restarted.
3. The control of Ringing also needs a location for counting the course of the
Ringing cadence. The Ring Count is counted in units of 0.1 second.
4. Make some connections (2 digit dialing), and observe the timing.

LAB SESSION 15
OBJECT:
To learn about Call Progress Assignment.

THEORY:
This shows the complete system records for actual successful or unsuccessful calls. The
Call Progress Practicals are:
Call Set Up
Call Supervision
Call Release
Call Progress:
In large telephone systems the computer system must be able to deal with many different
calls, at different stages as each call progresses. It is convenient to divide the control into
different phases, each dealing with a particular aspect of the call.

A common system is to divide the control into 3 phases:


Call Set Up: This includes all the initial phases from the Calling Line going Off Hook to
receiving the tones, Ringing, Busy or NU. After this the Call is transferred to
Supervision. Of course, the user may go On Hook at any time, in which case the call is
transferred to Release.
Supervision: This watches for Off Hook at the required line, and then connects the
speech, or for On Hook at the Calling Line, when it transfers to Release.
Release: This stops the call at whatever stage it has reached.
The timing requirements of the different stages vary, so it is possible to have different
scan rates for the different phases. The computer software is also partitioned to deal with
the different phases independently.

44

Multimedia Communication

Manual Control: The original telephone services were of course operated manually. The
operation of a modern automatic system can still be understood as simulating the actions
of a manual operator. The initial actions of an operator were to recognize the Off Hook
state, hear the identity of the required line given by the caller, and either select the
connection and start Ringing or announce that the line is Busy or Unobtainable. That
constituted the Set Up phase. Then the operator would turn his/her main attention to
another call, while watching for a reply or for the caller to hang up. That was the
Supervision phase. Finally at any stage of the call, it might be finished, and the
connections would be cleared, and the call released.
The similarity between the manual system and the modern systems also applies to the
main structure of the control system. In both cases the control system is separate from the
switched speech path. That did not apply to the Strowger electromechanical system
which was the main automatic system for most of the twentieth century. In that case the
speech path was set up step by step as the digits were dialed, using most ingenious
techniques.
Call Set Up: The first stage of Setting up a Call is to recognize the Off Hook state in a
Line which is not otherwise related to an existing call. In other words the Line is not in
any Call Record. The Set Up phase starts with the first Transition to State S1, Call
Request. Set Up is deemed to continue until one of States S4, S5 or S6 are reached.
During this phase the tone pulses may come very rapidly, and so the system must be
prepared to respond quickly. Then the system can wait for a response from either the
Required Line, or from the Caller, in the Supervision phase. The Caller may abandon the
Call at any time, in which case control is passed to the Release phase.
Release Convention: There are different possible ways of ending a Call, which has been
connected:

Calling Party Clear. This is the most common convention. With this convention
the Call is released when the original Caller clears his Line by putting the
telephone On Hook. The justification for this is that the Caller is responsible for
the cost of the Call, and so should be in control. However if the original Line is
not cleared, the Required Line is blocked and cannot be used. Whatever
convention is chosen during this Practical, the system reverts to Calling Party
clear immediately on exit from the Practical. This is to avoid confusion!
Either Party Clear. With this convention, either party can release the Call by
going On Hook.
Either Party Clear with Delay. If the Caller goes On Hook, the Call is released
immediately. However if the Required Line goes On Hook, the Call is not
released until after a preset delay. In this system the delay is 5 seconds. If the
Required Line goes Off Hook again before the delay is complete, the Call is not
released. This convention avoids the Required Line clearing the Call accidentally.

45

Further memory locations in the Call Record are required for the count of time during the
delay. Whichever convention is used, when the relevant condition is met, control is
passed to the Release stage. Under Supervision, the signals expected by the Control all
derive from the Switch Hooks, at one or the other telephone. Thus a slower rate of scan is
possible e.g. 100 ms. However there is no advantage for the Work board in using a
slower rate so the same rate of 20 ms is used.

PROCEDURE & RESULT:


Preliminary Procedure:
Check the Workstation set up as follows:
One Digital Switch Centre If there is only one Digital Switch Centre and
Telephone Tray (58-122 and 58-123) connected to the system controller 58-121,
make sure the Switching Centre Type Switch is set to 'A' (green LED on).

Two Digital Switch Centres If there are two Digital Switch Centres and
Telephone Trays (58-122 and 58-123), one Switching Centre Type Switch should
be set to A (green LED on) and the other to B (yellow LED on). A curly
trunk cable should interconnect the Trunks connectors. Use Switch Centre 'A'
for the Practical.
Two Digital Switch Centres plus a Trunk Networks Board With two Digital
Switch Centres and Telephone Trays (58-122 and 58-123) and a Trunk Networks
Board, 58-140 included in the set-up, one Switching Centre Type Switch should
be set to A (green LED on) and the other to B (yellow LED on). Curly trunk
cables should interconnect the Trunks connectors. Use Switching Centre 'A' for
the Practical.

Procedure for Call setup:


1. The data needed to control a call is shown in the Call Record. The progress of the
call can be observed in the Call Record, and in the current CSTD. The Input and
Output for each transition is also shown.
2. The first phase of the call is Call Set Up, up to the start of Ringing.
3. Start a call and observe the changes in the Call Records, step by step. If more then
one call is handled simultaneously, the CSTD shows the state of the call with the
most recent transition.
4. Observe the sequences for busy line and NU calls.
Procedure for Call Supervision:
1. This is the second stage of Call Progress. The Line has been identified, and the
system is waiting for action by a User. In a normal case, the first action will be
Answer (Off Hook) at the Required Line, and the Call moves to state S7, still
under Supervision. In other cases there may be no answer, or the Line is in State
S5 (Busy) or S6 (Number Unobtainable). Then the Supervision waits for the
Release condition.

46

2. This is the second stage of Call Progress. The Call is in Ringing or Busy or NU
state. The system is waiting for a response from a user. The practical includes a
choice of conventions for releasing a call.
3. Set up a call to the Ringing state. Answer the call and observe the system
response. Determine how to clear the call.
4. Set up more calls and determine the operation of the different release conventions
by clicking on the Set Release Convention button.
Procedure for Call Release:
1. This is the final stage of Call Progress. The action taken at Release depends on the
state of the call when it was cleared.
2. Any Tones or the Ringing signal must be cleared. The speech path may need
disconnecting. If the Call had reached State S7 and was connected details of the
call are transferred to Call Accounting. Finally the Call Record and the maps are
cleared.
3. The final stage of Call Progress. The action required depends on the Call State
reached before Release.
4. Set up several calls to various stages and observe the actions taken. There is not
space for every action. Consider what may have been omitted.
