Fax Modulation Software
- V.34 – 2400 to 33,600 bps
- V.17 – 7200, 9600, 12,000 and 14,400 bps
- V.33 – 12000 and 14400 bps
- V.29 – 7200 and 9600 bps
- V.27ter – 2400 and 4800 bps
- V.21 Channel 2 – 300 bps FSK
VOCAL’s fax modulation software is optimized for DSPs and conventional processors from TI, ADI, Intel, ARM and other vendors. Our software is available for licensing as a standalone algorithm or library. Custom solutions are also available for your unique application requirements.
High Speed Fax
As an option, these modulations can be combined with VOCAL’s V.34 fax to provide image transfer rates of up to 33600 bps. The V.21 channel 2 and V.27ter are the minimum requirements for Group 3 Fax. For non V.34 fax, V.21 channel 2 is used to transfer T.30 control frames. The “high speed” modulations V.27ter, V.29 and V.17 are used for the “compressed image” transfer. The term “compressed image” is used loosely here, as the high speed data may in actuality be other data, such as in the case of binary file transfer (BFT).
Fax Control Services
Using the Command Set Controller (CSC) in VOCAL’s T.30 library or with VOCAL’s facsimile service Class 1 Command Set(EIA-578 and T.31) all of the facsimile modulations and data streams can be controlled. The T.30 library could in turn be controlled by VOCAL’s facsimile service Class 2 Command Sets T.32 (Fax Class 2.1), EIA-592 (Fax Class 2.0), or industry standard (Fax Class 2). With Fax Class 1, most of the protocol is executed in software, with the advantage that any changes don’t require hardware modifications. This is in contrast to Fax Class 2, where image processing is handled by the modem.
The line interface may be an analog front end (codec and DAA) or a digital interface such as T1/E1, Switched 56, and ISDN. The upper end of this software offers a direct binary and HDLC interface.
