Echo Communication Problem

1 Sending side Some time is needed to 
compare the level of the 
receiving and sending signals 
for the echo canceler. The 
header of the training signal 
lacks due to a switching delay 
to close S1.
Add a dummy signal to the 
beginning of the training 
signal.

Receiving side The echo canceler function 
stops according to a CED 
signal frequency of 2100Hz (S1 
and S2 are both ON), a DIS 
signal is returned as an echo, 
and a DCS signal from the 
sending side overlaps theDIS 
echo. Then the receiving side 
FAX cannot retrieve the DCS 
signal. 
(Refer to Fig. a) 
Change to a 1100Hz CED 
signal frequency. (Refer to 
Fig. b)
Service 
 (CED 
Receiving side Change the regular rime of 
75 msec between the CED 
signal and DIS signal to 500 
msec. This will give at least 
250 msec to recover the 
echo canceler operation. 
(Refer to Fig. c)
Service 
 (Time 
and 
Sending side The sending side FAX sends 
a DCS signal not after 
receiving the 1st DIS signal 
but after receiving the 2nd 
DIS signal. (Refer to Fig. d)

3 Sending side Communication failure occurs 
in a long distance 
communication on the 
telephone line without an echo 
canceler. 
 
or 
 
There are some cases (e.g. 
Mobil comms.) which causethe 
collision of TX / RX signals due 
to the delay / echo and noise of 
the network / terminal. (Refer to 
Fig. e)
Decrease the transmission 
level from -10 dBm to -15 
dBm and the echo level will 
decrease.

Receiving side
Decrease the receiving 
sensitivity from -13 dBm to 
about -32 dBm so an echo 
signal will not received.

Receiving side
Set additional Pause time 
(Service mode: code No. 
774) in between the original 
and its repeated signals, to 
prevent the collision of the 
signals at both end.
