System for voice and data communication via a common subscriber line
View Patent ↗A data coding device for coding data, to be transmitted as part of data communication, to signals of a first frequency range, not used for voice communication with a first set of performance features, and a conversion device are provided. The conversion device has an interface for connecting a voice terminal having a second set of performace features and for transmission of data coded to signals of a second frequency range that are to be transmitted with the second set of performance features as part of voice communication. The conversion device also has a coding means for recording signals of the second frequency range to signals of a third frequency range that is located outside the first frequency range. Furthermore, a frequency-separating filter for feeding signals of the first and third frequency range into the subscriber line is provided.
1. A system for voice and data communication via a common subscriber line, comprising:
a data coding device for coding data relating to the data communication into signals of a first frequency range which is left unused by a voice communication with a first set of performance features;
a conversion device comprising:
an interface for connecting to a voice terminal providing a second set of performance features and for transmitting information relating to a voice communication with said second set of performance features, the information being coded into signals of a second frequency range; and
a recoder to recode the signals of the second frequency range to signals of a third frequency range that is outside the first frequency range; and
a frequency separating filter to feed signals of the first and third frequency ranges into the subscriber line wherein
the signals of the first and third frequency ranges are transmitted together with the voice communication with the first set of performance features, on a single transmission line, and
the signals of the second frequency range are recoded to the signals of the third frequency range while retaining the data transmission rate.
2. The system in accordance with claim 1 , wherein
the data coding device codes data to produce xDSL signals, and
the frequency-separating filter feeds the xDSL signals into the subscriber line.
3. The system in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the second frequency range is a signal frequency range of a U p0/E interface or a U p0 interface.
4. The system in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the third frequency range is a signal frequency range of a U2B1Q interface or a U k0 interface.
5. The system in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the conversion device recodes the signals with 2B1Q coding or 4B3T coding.
6. The system in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the device has a U p0/E or a U p0 interface to connect the voice terminal and a UU2B1Q or a U k0 interface for connecting the frequency-separating filter.
7. The system in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the subscriber line is a twin-wire cable.
8. The system in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the second frequency range overlaps the first and third frequency ranges.
9. The system in accordance with claim 2 , wherein the second frequency range is a signal frequency range of a U p0/E interface or a U p0 interface.
10. The system in accordance with claim 9 , wherein the third frequency range is a signal frequency range of a U2B1Q interface or a U k0 interface.
11. The system in accordance with claim 10 , wherein the conversion device recodes the signals with 2B1Q coding or 4B3T coding.
12. The system in accordance with claim 11 , wherein the conversion device has a U p0/E or a U p0 interface to connect the voice terminal and a UU2B1Q or a U k0 interface for connecting the frequency-separating filter.
13. The system in accordance with claim 12 , wherein the subscriber line is a twin-wire cable.
14. A method for voice communication and data communication via a common subscriber line, comprising:
coding data relating to the data communication into signals of a first frequency range which is left unused by a voice communication with a first set of performance features;
receiving information relating to a voice communication with a second set of performance features from a voice terminal providing said second set of performance features, the information being coded into signals of a second frequency range;
recoding the signals of the second frequency range to signals of a third frequency range being outside of the first frequency range; and feeding the signals of the first and third frequency ranges into the subscriber line; and
transmittal the signals of the first and third frequency ranges together with the voice communication with the first set of performance features, on a single transmission line;
wherein the signals of the second frequency range are recorded to the signals of the third frequency range while retaining the data transmission rate.
