CDM-Qx Multi-Channel Modem with DoubleTalk™ Carrier-in-Carrier™
DOUBLETALK CARRIER-IN-CARRIER EXAMPLE
Normal carrier positioning is shown in Figure 1, reflecting
two carriers positioned side-by-side. Each carrier occupies
a unique frequency band and (for practical purposes) they
do not overlap or interfere with each other.
DoubleTalk Carrier-in-Carrier
1
allows the two carriers to
occupy the same spectral space, as shown in Figure 2.
Initially, Carrier 1 and Carrier 2 are displayed to show the
carriers in the same space when only one carrier is
enabled. Carrier 1 is slightly higher in level than Carrier 2.
When both carriers are transmitted simultaneously, the
combined energy of both carriers is shown in the
composite trace above the two individual carriers.
Operation with asymmetric data rates is permitted as long
as the symbol rates of the two carriers are maintained
within a factor of 3.
MODEM INTERFACES
CDM-Qx Shown With:
Slot 1 Modulator Card with G.703 Balanced Interface
Slot 2 Modulator Card with G.703 Balanced Interface
Slot 3 Modulator Card with EIA-530 Interface
Slot 4 Modulator Card with EIA-530 Interface
IF 75Ω
Notes:
1. Also shown, placed above the modem are the
modulator and demodulator cards with G.703
Unbalanced (BNC) interface.
2. Select one per modem (i.e. modulator and
demodulator card combination) OR one per
modulator card and demodulator card, if using
independently.
3. Redundant units do not need an interface.
